My skin rebels against me at all time and I acquire at least TWO acne scars per break out. I was looking for a home remedy to cleanse my skin and help lighten my scars. Im tired of using all these products. I'd rather not be putting all those chemicals in my body. So I searched google and youtube and came across this recipe for a lemon toner.

The clean smell of fresh lemon can also be part of your beauty regimen, invigorating your soul as it cleanses your skin. Lemon is used in commercial beauty treatments as an astringent and cleanser. You can create a homemade lemon facial toner that has all the benefits of a commercial toner at a fraction of the cost. Read on to learn more.
