Pros My feet were plenty of fungus my whole life with the known oddor it produce. After one week using baking soda on my shoes it desapair completely. I aply BS to al my shoes and don't smell any more. Fungus can be everywhere in the body .
Cons it looks like it suck humidity a lot then the skin is dry, I prefer it dry and kill the fungus than let it go everywhere in the body.

Pros Definitely cheap
Cons Slight burning/tingling
Bottom line I have tried so many products. $70 for a tube of retin-A which did bring me out of the worst break out of my life and I highly recommend it. $20-$40 lotions, serums, oils, toners, etc. That was a lot of costly hit and miss. I am going to try for a week or two to determine the results. If this works for the money you pay then why not?

Pros Clears skin, refreshes, and evergizes.
Cons Nothing really.
Bottom line Helps clean the skin. It is great afterwards to put on a great toner like, withch hazel. And then after to use a natural moistirizer like cocunut oil, or other essential natural oils.

Pros Does the job well and dirt cheap. Plus travel friendly - it's powder not liquid!
Cons none
Bottom line Use it when your face is damped. Then rinse it off. Skin is so soft and you know all the dead skin are GONE! Dont leave it too long, dont use it too often. And about the dryness, nothing jojoba oil cant take care of. *wink*

Pros Cheap, easy to use.
Cons Immediately regretted using it.
Bottom line It might work for some people, but it was a bad experience for me. I tried it on a small area and it is still burning long after I washed it off. No thank you!

Pros Cheap.
Cons Extremely dry, scaley skin. Made me break out more.
Bottom line I started using baking soda because of the positive reviews on this site. I tried it for two weeks and, by the end of the second week, my skin was burning and extremely dry. No amount of moisturizer helped. I guess it works for a lot of people, but not for me.
Price paid $5.00

Pros Gentle exfoliant, improved skin texture, quick & easy! No burn for me!
Cons None so far.
Bottom line I have been using topical retinoids for over a year. I was on Retin-A for about a year, which helped to bring me out of the worst flar-up of my life, however, I was still not satisfied with the state of my acne. I was then prescribed tazorac cream (supposedly the strongest retinoid) and have been consistent with it every night for three months now. After a substantial IB, I hadn't seen much of a result. Lately, I have found myself turning to natural remedies to supplement the Taz. I just read a story about someone that was cleared from adding baking soda to their regimen, and that sent me flying into the pantry to try some for myself. I must say, that within the first use, my skin felt considerable better. It felt more soft and nicely exfoliated. I left it on for 10 minutes and did not notice any burning (I wouldn't say my skin is super sensitive, but I have experienced burning with other products i.e. Mint Jeulep Mask) only a slight tingleing sensation. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Pros Gets rid of acne immediately! Also gets rid of cystic acne. Disinfects the skin like nothing else.
Cons Slightly drying after it is rinsed off but not overly drying so that it damages the skin it just does the job.
Bottom line Follow my instruction: Mix baking soda and water. It should be the consistency of milk not a paste. You will have a thin layer all over your face. You don't need to form a paste it will be to thick and fall off. Put it all over your face and let it dry. I normally leave it on at least 1/2 hour to hour. Rinse it off without scrubbing your face. It will be glowing and the acne begins to dry up. Do this twice a day morning and night. After the 1st day I don't care who you are, you will notice a difference. For cystic acne it will take maybe two more days to deeply penetrate it but it will definitely clear that too, Trust me! Keep using this until your acne clears. Then use once daily as needed to keep acne at bay! This stuff is excellent in getting rid of acne. I was using proactiv and still getting acne because of the chemicals. I came across a site that mentioned baking soda to clear acne. I tried it and I am so happy!!! Please use it you will not be disappointed. Stick with it!
