Lovely lemons

If you're anything like me, a bowl full of lemons always adorns your kitchen. I cook with them frequently, adding the juice to just about everything. Not only does it add flavor, but works as a natural preservative. But you already knew that, didn't you? What you may not know about is the beauty remedies uses these lovely fruits provide. Here are two I use:

For brittle nails~ Rub sliced lemon on your nails everyday for stronger & sturdier nails. Also, soak in lemon juice for 10 minutes, and then brush them with equal parts of vinegar & warm water for good shape.

For blackheads~ Rub lemon juice over blackheads, keep overnight and rinse in the morning. Continue each night till gone. Be prepared this may burn, but has never caused me any kind of nasty reaction or rash.
