YES!!! Actually, just last night I had lemon juice on my face to get rid of the pimple I got over the weekend. It work wonders. It was a massive pimple let me tell you and I put the lemon juice on and in the morning, the pimple was hardly noticeable.
This is what you do...
1. Squirt lemon juice onto a washcloth.
2. Gently pat lemon juice on to your skin, don't rub it on.
3. Leave the lemon juice on...keep it on overnight.
4. In the morning wash your face like usual and you will see results overnight!
It's amazing.

wow if lemon juice will burn your skin then why is it than i use REAL lemons (and sugar) to keep my poor calused feet smooth ? ( soak in REAL lemon juice for about 10 minutes, take a half of a lemon with sugar on it ,not powdered suger but the other kind you would put on your cereal, [ it takes a lot of sugar too] and use the two as a scrub. when your done with one foot use the other lemon half and do the same on the other foot. wash foot well : ) ) and something i found out about to make your skin softer is rubbing brown sugar mixxed with olive oil (thick) and use that as a scrub anywhere on your body. you can add vanilla extract to it so yu get the brown sugar and vanilla smell. its a cheaper version of the stuff you buy at bath and body works.

Lemon juice is an acid. All it's doing is eating away at your face. If you want something really good for acne, get Mary Kay Velocity cleanser and moisturizer. They have strong acne medication in them, and I've seen them work miracles.

It may be too strong for your skin instead try tomato slices, turmeric, papaya juices and home made packs will treat existing pimples and prevent further problems. More remedies at the link provided.

lemon juice is a natural bleaching agent so...it will make you paler or whiter...i wouldn't use lemon juice...plus it will irritate and dry out your skin causing more acne.

I have heard of it being used on skin, but not for acne.

I wouldn't try it. Try using some oil-free soaps. That usually works for me or go see your doctor and see if they could subscribe you acne medications.

no way to much acid would porbably burn and also dry your skin out.. use peppermint based products

no no no. do not put something so acidic on your face, it will completely dry you out. if you do... do it with a q-tip and just do it in sports... not all over.
