can lemon remove pimples and dark spots - #12682

Aasha

I am really frustrated with my skin lately. A few weeks ago I noticed some pimples popping up on my face and I’ve also had these dark spots that seem to get worse. I heard that lemon might help with this, like can lemon remove pimples and dark spots? I read somewhere that it has citric acid which is supposed to brighten skin and all that, but I'm also worried it could just irritate my skin more. I tried dabbing lemon juice on a few times, and honestly, there’s been a little peeling but not sure if that’s good or bad?? Like, I'm not sure if I should keep going with the lemon juice. I mean, can lemon really remove pimples and dark spots or is it just some home remedy myth? Also, I talked to my friend who said she loves lemon for her skin but she has totally different skin type than mine. I feel a bit lost! What do you think? Should I stick with using lemon or look for something else? I really wanna get my skin to look clear again but dont want to make it worse. Please help!
