Hello Mr. Baking Soda…
You are definitely good for more than puffing up my oatmeal raisin cookies.
Surprisingly, baking soda is awesome on your face if you have pimples and
whatnot (although don’t get any in your mouth, it’s grossly salty). I’ve taken
to keeping a little container of the stuff by my bathroom sink. I’m not a
dermatologist or anything of the sort but I’ve come to appreciate these uses for
baking soda. I use it for two things, an exfoliator and (when I have time) a
mask. All you need to do is add water. Create a gloopy (not runny) consistency
using water and either rub it gently around your face and wash it off or let it
dry into a mask (it’ll be clumpy and chalky when it’s ready) and then wash it
off. You may want to moisturize afterward,
as this routine is slightly drying. GENTLE is the key word here though, you
don’t want to get rid of all the good skin stuff. A few times a week with this
mask and my skin was feeling softer and fresher, at a price way below the usual
scrubs and masks out there. The only downside is the smell. I wouldn’t call it
completely unpleasant, just a little less than desirable. But for the price and
the result, I thank you Mr. Baking Soda.
Do you have any
sneaky secrets in your skincare routine?

Sincerely, Ella
