when life throws you lemons... get PERFECT-O skin!



Ok so a lot easier than buying expensive proactive or any other kind of acne creams or washes is using house hold items that work just as good, if not better!!!

For about 4 months now, I've been using this remedy and literally my skin is clearer than ever!!

All you need is:


Cotton Balls or better yet, Cotton Pads


Lemon Juice (you can squeeze lemons, or just buy lemon juice)


Granulated Sugar or Brown Sugar

First you need to get your pores to open - you can do this a few ways..

1. Boil some water on your stove. Shut stove off and put your face about 4 inches above your pot for four minutes so the steam opens up the pores on your face.
2. Warm up a wet wash cloth in the microwave for a minute and lay it on your face for about 2 minutes.
3. Just wet your face with warm water!

Next, take a few cotton balls (or a round cotton pad that-way easier!!) and soak it with lemon juice. Put about 2 teaspons of sugar on top. Rub the mixture all over your face. It might sting - so if you can't handle it, add some water to the cotton. Make sure you get EVERYWHERE.

The sugar will rub off any dead skin, and the lemon really gets into your pores, killing any bacteria.

I do this every morning, and not only does it help clear your skin AMAZINGLY but the lemons really wake you up! =)

Love and perfect skin, Brianna xo
