Haha I actually used to try this at home. Lemonade wouldn't work too well because the sugar content in the drink will actually irritate your skin. Just plain lemon will actually work better even though it will sting more. I don't think Lemon will do much for acne though. It works well for acne scars.
Toothpaste on the other hand reacts differently to each person. First of all you have to make sure to sure the right brand. Certain brands like colgate will dry out your skin causing your skin to peel. Natural brands like Toms do much better to treat acne. Also, make sure to choose a toothpaste without a whitening agent.
For me, Toothpaste is very temporary. I would only use it if there is an important dance or date the next day. You would normally use toothpaste on huge cysts and pimples that are isolated. when I used it, the pimple sort of shrunk the next day, but it nothing to actually get rid of it. Over time, the pimple will rise back up and it will take longer to heal.
So toothpaste will work right away, but in the long run it isn't a good idea. You'll still have to deal with that huge cyst. :]
