Lemon to lighten, whiten skin and lighten freckles
Lemon to lighten your skin naturally
If you want to know how to use lemon juice to whiten
skin, the instructions are not difficult. Lemon juice is not only useful for
whitening skin and reducing freckles, but it is also a good treatment for oily
skin. Just keep in mind some safety precautions and you can try lemon juice to
lighten skin tone.
Blanch the skin naturally with lemon juice
Lemon juice is an astringent juice. It has natural
whitening properties. If you use lemon juice to whiten skin, know that you cannot
radically change the tone of your skin. At best, the skin will brighten up a
little lighter shades . The effects are not permanent. You can use lemon juice
for overall skin lightening, such as a freckle treatment, or for treating oily
skin. It is very simple to learn how to use lemon juice to whiten the skin.
Use only fresh lemons, never bottled lemon juice in
stores. Bottled lemon juice is often diluted with water and contains
preservatives to maintain freshness. Lemons are relatively cheap. Plan to buy a
lemon a day for this treatment. A juice extraction device by hand, the kind
that your grandma can use to make fresh orange juice in the morning, is ideal.
Patch Test
Before trying to use lemon juice on your skin, perform
a test to make sure it is not too aggressive for your skin. A patch-test uses a
product in a controlled area on the arm so you can see if you are allergic.
Clean the inside of the elbow and rub a little lemon
juice on the area.
Wait 24 hours. If the skin feels good, it is probably
correct to use lemon. If it stings or you have burns, rinse immediately and do
not use it on your face skin or anywhere else on your body.
Instruction
To create a whitening liquid, cut the lemon in half
and remove the seeds. Use the manual juicer until all the juice is extracted.
If you do not have a juicer, hold a lemon on a large bowl and squeeze as hard
as you can, and get as much juice as you can.
Application
Wash your face and dry. Apply lemon juice to a clean
face or area that you want to whiten. If it stings, rinse immediately. It can
be too aggressive for your skin.
Use of lemon juice for freckles
Freckles are concentrated clusters of melanin, the
pigment that colors human skin. These brown, light brown or reddish spots are
more common in people with blond hair, and usually appear on the face, neck and
shoulders. If you want to lighten your freckles naturally, you can use lemon
juice to do it (but be careful do not think that lemon juice can remove
freckles, but it can alleviate them for a while); the acidic properties of
lemons lighten your skin, but it will take time to do so and any lightening is
only temporary; once you return to the sun without a good sunscreen, your
freckles will come back.
Simple application
The best way to use lemon juice to lighten your
freckles is to place the fresh lemon juice in a spray bottle and spray it
directly onto the skin in the areas you want to lighten. Alternatively, using
the same technique to lighten your skin, you can rub a sliced lemon on the
area. Let sit on your skin for about 10 minutes, then wash.

or if you are allergic to lemons, do not use this treatment. Other precautions
to take into account: If a rash develops or your skin burns or stings, avoid.
Never go into the sun with lemon juice on your face. Lemon juice can make your
skin sensitive or very sensitive to sunlight, which has the opposite effect -
discoloration or burns. Rinse all traces of lemon juice from the skin before
going out .Avoid any contact with lemon juice near the eyes or on your eyelids
as it may burn or sting .Because lemon juice has astringent qualities, people
having dry skin can find lemon juice too severe. If the skin burns or stings,
stop using it. Consult a dermatologist for any persistent skin irritation. Temporary
Solution Lemon juice cannot permanently change the color of your skin, but it
can temporarily lighten and brighten your complexion.
