Hi Beauties! How you doing? With the increasing success of bleaching creams (with enormous side effects) in the market, I thought I'd share this interesting benefit of lime with you.
Lime juice is very effective against dark spots and acne scars because it's packed with citric acid which acts as a bleaching agent with no side effect. About a year ago, I couldn't look at my face in the mirror without feeling quite ugly, no thanks to an acne attack that left loads of disgusting dark spots and scars on my face.
I had to rely heavily on makeup to conceal these unwanted guests and the lightening creams I used only made it worse, but then, a friend introduced me to the lightening benefits of lime... Ordinarily I drink lime juice, but I was never aware of it's amazing lightening benefits when applied directly on the face. After just my first application of lime juice on my face, I could see visible results and in less than a 2wks, my dark spots days were over!
Here's how to use lime to lighten your face; simply apply the juice to your face using a cotton ball, leave it for about 10mins for it to dry and rinse with water. Do this everyday for as long as you want to lighten your skin. Lime also exfoliates the skin and prevents new pimples from popping up.
Are you going to try this? Please let us know and if there's something else that works for you, please share with us. Kindly leave your comments and suggestions below.

ReplyDeleteI recently had some pimples on my left cheek dat left splatters of dark spots clustered on the left side of my face....how do i clear the black spots without really lightening my face coz am an ebony black lady and i love it! i dont joke with my complexion so kindly advice.
ReplyDeleteHi Love, try aloe Vera juice, it'll fade the spots and maintain your complexion. You can also scrub the area with honey and sugar paste. This will exfoliate your face and reduce the appearance of the spots. Aloevera works really good on the skin. I know this because I use it, I also have a small aloevera garden. Let me know the results you get...
ReplyDeleteYou are a darling. Thanks and keep up d good work. Get back to you soon
DeleteNice one tanx 4 the info
ReplyDeleteIFU,pls can I use dis 4 dark spots on my legs? and please what can I use to clear stretch marks.Thanks.
ReplyDelete@Ifu please write on aloe vera... Especially using it naturally
ReplyDeleteLime is too acidic for my face.
ReplyDeleteI tried using it sometimes ago to clear acne spots. I was left with a 'burnt' face!
Hahaha not only you o. I tried it out too a long time ago and got a burnt skin.
DeleteSorry Beauties. If you have cuts or bruises on your face, it'll burn you, but stop using it if it's too acidic for your face. Diluting with water is an option if you'll still like yo try it.
DeleteI'll definitely try this as soon as I can,infact it has just been bookmarked as a daily routine. I can't wait for those dark spots to be forgone. Tired of all this chemical creams around jare,doing it ifu's way this time around,lol.Team lime juice!Team natural!

ReplyDeleteWhat caused these white spots on your face? Aloe vera is good for correcting skin troubles...Try it
DeleteCan't wait to try this. Thanks dear
