ReaLemon means more than just lemonade. ReaLemon can make women brighter
and more beautiful and even help around the house. Lighten up for
summer with blonde highlights using ReaLemon as an all-natural alternative
to dyes or bleaches. First, rinse hair with ⁄ cup ReaLemon lemon
juice and cup of water. Follow by sitting in the sun to activate
ReaLemon's natural bleaching ingredients.
Summer is the perfect time to get (and keep!) a French manicure -
but get nails in better shape first. Soak them in ReaLemon for 10
minutes, then brush them with a mixture of equal parts white vinegar
and warm water. Rinse well, and polish perfectly.
Banish bothersome blackheads by rubbing ReaLemon over them before
going to bed. In the morning, rinse with cool water and repeat the
process each night until blackheads go bye-bye!
For a bright smile that complements summers’ tan, mix one teaspoon
of baking soda with ? teaspoon ReaLemon lemon juice. Use a cotton
swab to apply the mixture to teeth, brush and rinse with water. (Don’t
apply too often -lemon juice is very acidic and may eventually damage
tooth enamel.)
Consistent overexposure to the sun can cause sunspots. To get rid
of them, apply ReaLemon to the sunspot several times a day. Lemon
juice is acidic enough to peel off the upper layer of skin, significantly
lightening or even completely removing the sunspot.
Clean house with a twist -ReaLemon is a real friend at home. To clean
the fridge, remove all the expired products, then fill a bucket with
1/3 cup of ReaLemon lemon juice and ? gallon warm water. Sponge down
cleared shelves with the solution and finish by drying each shelf
with a soft cloth. Lemon juice and water deter mold -- leaving a fridge
smelling great!
Restore surfaces stained from grease or fruit on counters and cutting
boards by rubbing the affected area with ReaLemon until the stain
comes out. Clean drains by measuring out a ? cup of ReaLemon and ?
cup of baking soda. Pour baking soda into the drain first, then follow
with lemon juice. Leave the mixture 15 minutes before rinsing with
hot tap water. The chemical interaction between ReaLemon and the baking
soda may make some noise!
The lemon solutions go on and on. Rub a teaspoon or two of ReaLemon
onto hands to eliminate stains and odors, from berries or garlic.
Make inside windows sparkle with two tablespoons of ReaLemon and a
quart of water. Restore old cloudy mirrors by rubbing ReaLemon lemon
juice on to the stained portion of the mirror and buff until the stain
is gone. Scrub the grub from the tub with a paste from ReaLemon lemon
juice and salt - scrub the dirty area and rinse. It’s cheap,
effective and all-natural!
Adding a few drops of lemon juice to the vacuum cleaner bag will
freshen the air as the room is vacuumed. Try a dash of baking soda
and a lemon peel in the bag as additional deodorizers.
For whiter, brighter, better-smelling whites, add ⁄ cup of
ReaLemon to the wash cycle, then air-dry the clothes in the sun. Wear
sunglasses for the results! Try lemon for lint, too. Prevent lint
formation by adding ⁄ cup of ReaLemon to the wash cycle of white
and light colored laundry. ReaLemon is a real solution for very real
women!
