A loose skin on a mandarin makes it easy for kids to peel, but I'm
puzzled why you would desire a loose skin on a lemon? I've never seen
such a thing on lemons, anyway.

The sweetest true lemon I've tasted has been a bush lemon. Their skin
is thick (lots of pith) and wrinkled, but definitely not loose. When
peeled the fruit was about half the size I'd started with, but I could
easily break it up into segments and eat the pieces without wincing.

Perhaps if you explain what attribute the loose skin will afford we
can be more helpful.
