Lemons are the most underrated fruits in the world

Lemons are the most underrated fruits in the world. You can use them for almost everything out there.
We associate them with tangy chutneys and savory foods but there so much more to lemons than bring out
the sour taste in food. Let’s look at some of the ways we can use lemons in our daily lives.

For glowing and flawless skin: lemons are acidic. They can totally change your skincare regime.

They leave skin feeling fresh and plumper than ever before. They can even out any skin discoloration or
pigmentation on your skin. 
For a fresh flawless skin, take few drops of lemon juice and mix it well with honey. Apply it on your skin/face

in circular motion. Let the magic serum stay on for minimum 30 mins. Wash it off with Luke warm water or a

warm towel. I personally like to let it stay on for hours (maybe 2-3). It works like magic. And I’m left with healthy

looking skin in less than a week.  
Fix pigmentation: Like I said before, lemons can fix dark spots or pigmentation on your skin. You can also apply

this mask anywhere on your skin to remove or blur out tan lines. 
For this purpose, take a tablespoon of lemon juice and mix it with a table spoon of yogurt. Its better to use fresh

yogurt or Greek yogurt. Apply this mixture to clean face for 15-20 mins. I do not leave it on for long time since

the fats in the yogurt are not that friendly with my prone to acne/combination skin. 
Shrink pores and reduce wrinkles: let me get one thing straight, nothing will disappear your pores and wrinkles.

Let me say that again, NOTHING! But lemon juice mixed with some other goodness will make them not the most

obvious feature on your face/body. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with having fine line or large

pores, but people spend huge chunk of their earning on reducing the size of their pores and diminishing

wrinkles. So here, I’m going to give you a free tip on how to save lots of bucks and look somewhat younger. 
For this magic recipe, you need to take a table spoon of lemon juice and mix it with some milk cream. If cream

doesn’t suit your skin, substitute it with some of your favorite oil like olive/almond/coconut oil. Or if you want

some extra pampering, through in some vitamin E oil with lemon juice. Apply this mixture on your face/body

for 40-50 mins and wash it off with cold water.

For all these tips, do remember to do a test run. Lemon can irritate skin so do a test patch before you apply it to

whole of your face/body. It is also recommended to apply mixture with a cotton ball. This prevents you from

transferring any germs from your finger to your face. Always apply the mixture in circular motion. Do it in the

beginning and then again before its time to take it off.
