I just tried heavily coating my face with a paste made of warm water and baking soda, leaving it to dry for 15 minutes, and washing it off. My face looks so much cleaner. It's a bit pink in places, but the blackheads I've hated so much are all either gone or reduced, and it even seems to have made some big pores smaller. Yes. Smaller pores. That makes me happy.

Ive never had really BAD acne but I get greasy pimples on my chin and blackheads all over my nose.
I just tried a baking soda mask after reading all the reviews here. I left it on for 15 minutes. It felt like it was tightening my skin as it dried and it tingled a bit. I just washed it off and my skin looks really good. The two big pimples I had on my chin have lost pretty much all their redness and all the gunk had been brought to the top, which was easilly removed. My whole complexion looks and feels a lot smoother and the blackheads on my nose look a lot smaller.
I just wanted to write this up because it was all the good ratings that made me try it, and now maybe other people will try it and have great results too.

i tried this for the first time last night after doing some extensive research (i have super sensitive skin). it's amazing what it did for my skin. i applied a thin pastey mask of baking soda (about 2tbsp), a few drops of jojoba oil, and enough water to make it into a thick paste. i rinsed after it appeared dry (about 10 minutes) and it soothed a lot of the redness caused by the bp and dan's clear skin regimen. it also made my large pores tighter and smaller. even this morning, the pores still looked smaller. it does sting a little, but after about 5 minutes, the stinging turned into an overall warmth all over my face. for me, the stinging didn't bother me, maybe because my face has been itching as well as red from the regimen and it got rid of much of the itch. later on in the evening, i used it all over my body in the shower instead of soap and my skin feels nice and smooth this morning. it rinses off easily and has no odor. i think this is a keeper for me.

It's basic, needs it needs to be nutrilized with a lemon or vinager afterwords!!!! mix acid with water then leave it on abt10 min.

DO Not put the paste of baking soda, use it to WASH your face. Either with cleaner or after cleansing.

Hey it's common sense.

I have been fighting mild acne since I was about 15. Lately I have been trying a different approach. I was online looking for a natural way to stop acne. Baking soda... Oh Arm and Hammer you are my god! Also, if you guys want something to combine with the baking soda then look for Hollywood Beauty Cocoa butter. It is amazing, cleared up most of my zits, and keeps my face moisturized. My routine is Wash with Noxzema in the morning. Wash with baking soda at night. Then, I apply a generous layer of the cocoa butter out of the shower. Right before I go to sleep, I apply a thick baking soda paste to the red spots and pimples and leave it on over night. I am nearly Pimple free. YAY! and my skin glows too!

I havent used it long enough to say it prevents acne, but i can say it does reduce redness and swelling. Im quite pleased with it. Just make sure you dont scrub hard, it will tear up your skin. Just scrub in a soft circular motion.
