Lemon

Lemon provides its benefits in abundance: vitamin C stimulates the epidermis, activates blood and lymphatic microcirculation and contributes to healing, promoting the synthesis of collagen and elastin.  It also reduces the thickness of the stratum corneum. Magnesium and calcium help the skin’s enzyme systems function properly. Bioflavonoids work to protect cells against oxidation caused by free radicals. Pectins and limonene are recognized antiseptics and anti-inflammatories. Citric acid is a perfect bactericide and fungicide.
