Like
all citrus fruits, lemons are a good source of vitamin C
which enhances the beauty of your skin and has a lot to
give both to health and beauty. They are also good for cleansing
your digestive
system.
The various benefits of lemons
are listed below:
Squeeze some lemon juice into warm water and drink it.
It helps by cleansing your body of toxins.
Cellulite can also benefit from lemons. First of all,
start each day with a drink of hot water and squeezed
lemons. Water retention is also banished this way. Then
use a lemon based cellulite oil to rub onto the affected
areas.
Lemons
can be rubbed directly onto skin and left for about
2 hours before rinsing. This is good to reduce wrinkles
and treat blemishes. The treatment will work better
if followed by olive oil after rinsing. It works by
speeding up skin renewal and uncovering a fresh new
layer of skin. However, it is important not to do this
before going out in the sun as it will have a bleaching
effect.
Another
beauty treatment that can be done with lemons is a hair
tonic. Massage some lemon juice onto hair and leave
it for a while before rinsing. Again, do not do this
before going in the sun. This treatment is especially
good for greasy hair as it will regulate the sebaceous
glands which produce oil and make the hair shine and
prevent dandruff.
