I don't know about you but I use lemons for several reason, in food, drinks, to decorate and also on my body. Thanks to my mum and aunt, here are different ways you can incorporate lemons in your beauty regime....

For Darken Skin

Squeeze half a lemon and apply the juice to the area/s with a cotton ball but stay away from sunlight. Leave for an hour and wash off with water.

For Blackheads and Acne

Rub a cut lemon over your face and leave for 10 minutes. Wash it off with cold water.

For Elbows and Armpits

To get rid of dark skin on elbows and armpits simply rub a cut lemon and leave on for 30 minutes. Wash off with water.

For Lighter Hair

Damp your hair with juice of four lemons and stay in the sun for no more than 60 minutes. Wash and condition your hair. Repeat for a lighter look.

For Dandruff

Cut lemon into slices and massage directly on to your scalp. Leave for an hour and wash it off with lukewarm water.

For Nails

Bleach and strengthen your nails by soaking in lemon juice for 10 minutes each week.

For Feet

Put the juice of one lemon in a bucket of warm water and soak your feet for about 20 minutes. Dry completely.
