Baking Soda for Skin care

There are countless benefits of baking soda to your skin. Amongst the most popular are natural deodorizer, exfoliant, pimple and acne remedy, removes blackheads amongst other. So this week I tried creating my homemade facial mask.

WHAT YOU NEED?

2 tablespoon of lemon juice
4 to 5 tablespoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon of sea salt or rock salt.

Procedure

Mix all ingredients until it becomes clay like in texture. Always make sure to do some skin test to check if your skin reacts. After 10 minutes and you havent felt a burning sensation or extreme itchiness then you can apply it on your face.

Aside from using lemon juice you can also use milk or honey or even distilled water.

Because there is other benifits of using baking soda you can also apply it on your arms, armpit, on your feet.

For face and neck you can wash it after 10 to 20 minutes.

For feet, sole, ankle or knee you can wrap it and leave it overnight. It leaves the skin softer.

Please note not to over use baking soda as it may damage your skin. Preferably twice a week or even once a week.
