    Who knew two simple ingredients could do so much for your skin ?

    If you're on a never-ending quest to find the best acne treatments, we may have just found it for you. In fact, we haven't found it, Kendall Jenner has.

    Yes, Kendall has uncovered the magic of a few ingredients you already have in your kitchen.

    In a video post on her website, the model explained how the lemon juice and egg white mix has helped combat her acne. Known for its astringent properties that help tighten your pores, egg white is found in many homemade face masks. As is lemon juice, which is hailed for its exfoliating action thanks to its level of citric acid.

    So, before you head to the pharmacy, open up your pantry doors. All the ingredients in there were once used by Cleopatra. And she was said to be the most beautiful woman in all of Egypt. So, if it worked for her, and it still works for Kendall, chances are, it can work for us too.

    Help give acne the boot by finding *the* perfect cleanser for your skin type – this quiz has you covered.

    But before you go and slather yourself in this mixture, test it on your skin. Lemon juice is also known for its ability to sting and in some severe cases, burn. And the last thing you want to do is end up with a sore, red face.

    Apply a small amount of mixture onto a section of your skin and leave it for 24 hours to check whether you're compatible with it. If your skin gives you the green light, try Kendall's acne-fighting face mask and see if it works for you.
