Thats right. Sea salt and lemon juice is an amazing all natural way to treat and prevent acne. I can’t take credit for this idea I got it from my friend Rochelle, but it works so well I wish I could.
Combine about a teaspoon of lemon juice and enough sea salt (it must be sea salt) to make a paste. Wash your face with a gentle non-exfoliating cleanser first. I would suggest either the balancing or hydrating cleanser. Carefully scrub onto face. I would recommend that traditional exfoliating method of rubbing gently in small circles all over your face. Scrub for about 15 seconds – 1 minute depending on skin sensitivity. Leave on for 5-10 minutes. Remove gently with a warm wash cloth. Expect some stinging, and be aware that the more severe the acne the more it will sting. I also would advise using a gentle toner afterwards to remove any residue before moisturizing.
This simple (and inexpensive!) technique should visibly improve acne in a matter of days. Use consistently for a month and skin tone, redness, blackheads, and acne will improve dramatically.
