Honey and Lemon Acne Treatment

While researching other topics for AcneTeen.org, I found this one regarding the use of honey and lemon for a homemade acne mask / home acne treatment. Opposed to the lemon juice acne remedy, this little treatment is actually pretty unknown.

Also, according to eHow, the ratings are pretty low for the effectiveness of how well this works, but everyone is different, so I figured that I should still go ahead and post about it.

What you will need!

  • 2 spoon fulls of Honey
  • A few drops of Lemon Juice
  • 1 table spoon of Almond Oil

Instructions

  1. Mix all of the above items together in a small container.
  2. Apply gently to your face.
  3. Let solution sit on your face for 1/2 hour.
  4. Rinse off with water.
  5. Pat dry.
  6. If needed, apply an oil free moisturizer.
  7. Use daily.
  8. Store unused solution in the fridge.

Does the Honey - Lemon Acne Mask Work?

Although the ratings are really low on eHow, I would definitely give it a try, if you like experiments. However, if you're not willing to risk your skin, then don't. Again, the ratings are really pretty low, so I don't even think I would try this mask.

I've tried this as a friend recommended it to me. It made my face very tight and tichy. After washing it off my skin felt unbearable!
It was red (and i've got brown skin - not
much makes me go red!) and on top of that I had the most ugliest, sore spots formed.. Like a rash but only larger.
I guess it was just too harsh for me. My friend however loves it and
uses it frequently.

It clear up my face from redness and dryness but it took about two weeks for me to start seeing results. Just don't go out into sunlight because the lemon or lime is very acidic and might irritate your skin. So try this at night time.

Hi,
I use a lemon and honey face mask probably once a week. If you have sensitive skin you may not want to use it everyday as it will dry out your skin. Also topical treatments help but the main cause for ane is 'what you eat.' Eat healthy and you will look healthy- trust me diet plays a big part in your acne!!!

Hi!

I tried using honey and lemon face mask and it gave me nice results. I most of the time get pimples on my face but since i've started using this mask. I seldom get one. :)
