There are all sorts of beauty tips and tricks using unusual products floating around Pinterest. I decided that I wanted to try some of them out to test whether or not they work. I plan on doing this as a weekly series for the next few weeks (or whenever I run out of ideas).

First on my list is using half a lemon and honey as a way to remove dirt and blackheads from pores. I have seen this one all over so it is probably a good place to start.

I started with a fresh lemon and some honey made by a family friend. 

Here goes nothing! I cut the lemon in half and squeezed some honey onto it. I then rubbed it all over my face, paying special attention to my nose and chin since that is where I have most of my blackheads.

This is my skeptical face. At this point I’m pretty sure it isn’t working.

Final verdict – fail. I definitely didn’t notice any black head removal. All that I was left with was lemon flavored lips and honey in the crevices of my nose (which actually starts to itch after a while and makes my face feel dry). 

Have an unusual pinterest tip that you want me to try? Send it over and I’ll add it to the series!
