Women Corner

Many of us have had a long standing battle with acne. Unfortunately acne doesn’t go away for a lot of women after college. Acne scars can be unsightly and can make wearing makeup a day necessity. There are various creams, salves, oils and other strange mixtures on the market to help eliminate acne scars. Most however, don’t live up to their hype. There is one sure-fire way to rid yourself of embarrassing acne scars though: Lemons….that’s right….Lemons.

Step 1

First and foremost you need a clean palate so to speak. Use your regular cleanser and clean your whole face thoroughly. Make sue that all of the makeup has been cleaned off and your skin dry. Refrain from using any astringents at this point, you can go back to your normal acne prevention methods after this treatment.

Step 2

Now, take one lemon and cut it in half. Place it on a microwave safe plate and nuke it for about 30 seconds. The microwave will actually draw out more juice than just squeezing it alone will. This is a useful trick for the next time you’re using lemons in the kitchen. Squeeze the lemon juice into a cup or bowl.

Step 3

Next cut a piece of gauze about 1 ft. in length and roll it up on itself. Now place the rolled up gauze in the lemon juice and let it soak for about 5 minutes. A lot of the liquid will be absorbed into the gauze.

Step 4

Next unwrap the gauze. If it’s dripping, wring out any excess juice. Now place the gauze on the areas with your acne scars. You will most likely need to be lying down or reclining. Keep the gauze on your skin for at least 20 minuets at a time. If you notice any serious reddening of the skin stop immediately and consult your doctor. It is rare, but some women can have an allergic reaction to extended citrus acidity like lemon juice.

Step 5

Repeat the whole process each night for about 2 weeks. By the end of the regiment you will notice a significant change in your scars. They won’t disappear completely, that’s impossible, but they will lighten up quite a bit and unless you’re really looking for them, will appear to have vanished all together.
