Hey guys I was wondering if rubbing lemons on your face gets rid of pimples? Thanks!

Yes it does but can't do it everyday.
I used to do it in the morning every other day and I found that it made my skin red. So I did it before I went to bed. Also it drys out the skin sometimes. If there is skin that is dry but it peels off easy. It's just dead skin that dried up really fast and lemons help with dead skin also.

Not sure about acne, because I can't think of any acne fighting agents it contains, but it will lighten your skin tone, so use it in moderation.

Also, if it dries up your skin make sure you moisturize a lot after. Peeling off dead skin may cause you to over peel it and end up taking off healthy skin, causing in scanning and scarring

Not sure about that but you can put a mint green facial mask on or tooth paste on the pimple as soon as it shows.

Sounds ok...if your not sure I would stick to regular face washing. I recommend clearisil and proactive- FYI- if you have sensitive skin stick to clearisil, I you have a lot of dead skin- proactive will work for that. Hope this helps.

Toothpaste is like a cross to satan! It works really well.
