Make a Lemon Face Cleanser

Ever clean your face and still have roughness? Lemon is a citrus fruit which contains anti-bacterial properties. Lemon is splendid for acne when used correctly. The following tips will help cleanse and soften your skin.

Steps

Type 1

  1. Squeeze a fresh lemon into a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of plain, organic yogurt and 1 teaspoon of honey as a moisturizer. Lemon juice should not be applied directly to skin because its acidic properties dry the skin. Like lemons, honey and yogurt are anti-bacterial, but they also moisturize skin.
  2. Combine all the ingredients.
  3. Moisten a towel with hot water.
  4. Place a warm towel on your face. This will open your pores.
  5. Apply lemon mixture to cheeks and forehead.
  6. Keep this mixture on your face for 1 minute.
  7. Clean face with cold water to close up pores
  8. Apply facial cream to your face to moisturize it.

Type 2

  1. Put a teaspoon of sugar into a bowl.
  2. Combine it with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
  3. Mix both of them up well.
  4. Gently scrub into your T-Zone (Forehead, nose and chin). You can even apply on lips.
  5. Rinse it off with lukewarm water.
  6. Finished.
