Default Pure natural honey and lemon juice for blackheads?

Lemon juice can be used a skin whitener so i was wondering if it was safe to use on strech marks? also, honey is good for scars do you think natural honey would be okay to massage in ? I dont wanna try tummy honey :P has anyone tried honey for it?


oh, well i think i found my answer for lemon juice if anyone else wants to try it.

" Lemon juice is a common home remedy for both stretch marks and scars alike. The theory is that lemon juice bleaches the surrounding skin, helping to “blend” the stretch marks in with the rest of your skin. The fact is, lemon juice contains citric acids which perform the same function as AHAs, Salicylic acid, and retinoids, but in a milder manner. "

honey should work, it's a really good moisturiser. The lemon should disguise the stretch marks, but wouldn't help them fade, I imagine. Try a body butter or pure vitamin e oil (can be bought liquid or if it's cheaper you can get capsules and pierce them )
