Using lemon juice to reduce dark spots naturally can be a gentle way to brighten the skin when applied carefully and in its most diluted form. Fresh lemon juice contains mild natural acids that help lighten pigmentation over time, but to keep the skin safe without using any chemicals or harsh ingredients, it’s important to mix it with soothing natural bases like rose water, honey, or plain water to avoid irritation. Start by diluting a small amount of freshly squeezed lemon juice, apply the mixture only on the dark spots using a cotton swab, and leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing with cool water.
