Lemon juice is a fantastic skin brightener. It has long been used by Indian women to even up darker
the mask of pregnancy’, and lemon juice is a great natural way to help gently fade it away.
Apart from its skin bleaching properties, lemon juice is a natural cleanser which helps to remove dead skin cells and can be used as a toner for oily skin, or watered down for a general refreshing spritz. Dabbing lemon juice on blackheads and leaving for a few minutes a day can help reduce blackheads while a good soak in lemon juice is great for smoothing rough feet, as the fruit acids work to break down hard calloused layers of dead skin.
Anything else I didn’t know about Lemon juice?
Well there is one more thing that lemon juice is good for. Put away that gross toxic tasting mouthwash and use lemon juice instead. Use lemon juice to reduce bad breath and keep the teeth and gums healthy. What more can I say, take a trip out to the garden and pick one today. Don’t have a lemon tree? You should consider getting one, or you could go to your local supermarket fruit and veggie section where lemons should not be in short supply.
