FAQ:
Q: Can I use bottled lemon juice instead of fresh?
A: Fresh lemon juice is strongly recommended for its purity and effectiveness. Bottled versions may contain preservatives and less vitamin C.
Q: Is this mask safe for sensitive skin?
A: If you have sensitive skin, do a patch test first. You can also dilute the lemon juice with water or add honey or yogurt to soothe potential irritation.
Q: How soon will I see results?
A: Many users notice smoother, tighter skin after the first use, but long-term results come with regular weekly application.
Q: Can I apply it to other parts of my body?
A: Yes! This mask works well on the neck and décolleté area too—just avoid broken or irritated skin.
