Was that it? Yes.

Lemons are full of vitamin C, and have many health benefits. This cleanse should be done when you feel you need it to help aid in alkalizing the build-up in your stomach. Once I tried the cleanse I continued to drink a glass of lemon water a day. Lemon juice also acts as a fat burner; it will aid in relief of bloating, heart-burn, constipation, relieve cold symptoms and has numerous other health benefits. I also noticed my skin looked healthier.

The Lemon Mask

I had seen a facial mask on Pinterest made of honey and lemon. I decided to try it while I was stocked up on lemons. Needless to say, I now use the mask once a week. For the mask; mix a teaspoon of lemon juice and a teaspoon of honey together. Cleanse your face and rinse with warm water, then apply the lemon mixture gently to your skin. Leave it on for 20 minutes; then rinse it off. My skin was smooth and it got rid of those pesky blackheads that like to show up every now and then. It may just be wishful thinking, but I think my wrinkles are less noticeable as well.

It’s amazing the natural benefits available for health and beauty. I’ve spent money on cleansers and lotions that did nothing they were advertised to do, as well as so called fat-burner diet pills. I would much rather risk trying an almost free home remedy and saving the money, as opposed to continuing clutter my bathroom with un-used beauty products.

Wait till I tell you what I do on my Spa day! I’ll save that for later.
