15 Advanced ways to use baking soda for skin care routine:

The baking soda will boost the efficiency of any cleanser by adding oxygen and lightly buffing away dead skin cells. This help make sure your cleanser is touching the new skin cells and not just the old dead skin cells.

If you use a night time skin serum or moisturizer before you go to bed, use the baking soda exfoliater before you apply your serums! Your skin will be perfectly prepped for serums and absorb deeper! A deeper absorption means better results with any skin serum. I would use this before I used my (Estée Lauder New Advanced Night Repair Review) serum. To save money, I’m now using Rosehip Oil For Skin Care at night instead of the expensive Estee Lauder.

 

#4. Baking Soda for Blackheads and Acne:
