Lemon, a popular citrus fruit and common cooking ingredient, has long been used for its antiseptic properties. It is widely found in antibacterial products and can be used as a household cleaner and deodorizer. The scent of lemon has a calming effect and may be useful in aromatherapy products. Lemons contain flavonoids that offer potent antioxidant properties. When applied to the skin, lemon may reduce the appearance and prevalence of acne and eczema. The medicinal benefits of lemons have been known for centuries and are traditionally used in cosmetics as a source of citric acid. Given their relatively high acid content along with antioxidant activity, lemon juice has been shown to contain natural skin brightening properties. Lemons are rich in Vitamin A, B, C, lycopene, phytonutrients, flavonoids, minerals, and alpha-hydroxy acid (citric acid); powerful antioxidant activity, beneficial towards photoaged skin, improves skin tone and texture, promotes skin rejuvenation.
