How do you apply lemon juice to your acne scars, straight from a lemon and for how long do you keep it on?
Also, do you rinse it off or wipe it off with a tissue? Also, about how long does it take for it to finish?...

lemon juice is an acid which can damage the tender skin on your face. use salycylic acid and see a dermatologist.
You can squeeze drops of lemon into a bowl , add a bit of water and then apply it to your face. Let it dry, this usually takes more than ten minutes. Then rinse it off with cold water.
There really is no wrong way. I like to take cotton balls or cotton swabs and soak them in lemon juice. I do this by squeezing the juice directly from a lemon into a small cup.
Then I dab the scars with as much juice as I can for a couple of minutes. Let it just air dry.
Acne scarring is perhaps worse than the acne itself.
My acne scars weren’t horrible. They probably weren’t even that noticeable after I put on my foundation. However, I certainly noticed them and that was all it took to bother ME.
If you’ve got acne scars, you may feel a bit helpless. But you don’t have to because there are alternatives to getting rid of acne scars. And you CAN do something about it.
So what do you do about it? Well, there is totally a solution … actually there are many.
These are NATURAL treatments.
Now, just because you hear the word "natural", I don’t want you to shake your head and think you need to just buy some over the counter miracle cream. These remedies WORK! And you’ll find that by consistently using them, your acne scars WILL fade just like mine did.
So without further ado, here are my favorite natural acne scar solutions:
Vitamin E
. Vitamin E naturally heals scars by moisterizing the damaged skin. Use it everyday to fade away acne scars.
Don’t underestimate the power of this healing lotion. You can get it at any drugstore in topical form. I have a HUGE bottle of it under my sink
Cocoa Butter
This one should be used carefully. If your acne is not already under control, cocoa butter does pose the threat of additional breakouts. However, if you’re using the 3 Day Cure technique and your skin is finally clear, this is a powerful healing tool. Cocoa Butter will soften skin, lighten the scars and make them fade into nothing. I love this one. By the way, Cocoa Butter also works great on fading stretch marks.
Honey
Okay, this is totally gonna change your life! Honey works overtime on acne & acne scars. Yes, Honey! When I first learned about this natural remedy, I was pretty bewildered. The sound of it alone is confusing. Honey is a sticky, sugary substance. How can it possibly clear up skin?
Honey kills bacteria while simultaneously lessens the red look of irritated skin. The acidity in the honey evens out your skin tone, shrinks current pimples and will give your skin a softer feel. Listen, I know you may be skeptical of this solution. I was at first, then I tried it. This natural acne scar remedy works great.
Lemon
Lemon will help clear up acne as well as fade acne scars. Plus your face will smell like a freshly shined harwood floor, so that’s a plus
The acidity in the juice will lighten the redness of the scars and balance your skin’s pH levels to prevent future breakouts. Give it a shot.
