Pros:

Very affordable, completely removed blackheads, gentle and makes hands and face baby smooth! Brightens up skin noticeably, removing oil and impurities without causing irritation.

Cons:

Dries skin out, a moisturizer is a must.

I typically have very clear skin, my problem areas being a smattering of blackheads on my nose, enlarged pores once in a while, and dry skin by the corners of my mouth. Recently I started getting more and more blackheads, and I needed a cheap and fast solution! I looked at all kinds of homemade face masks and scrubs, but I was always missing one or two key ingredients. Then I decided to try this, as I have baking soda sitting in my bathroom right now. I mixed a handful of baking soda with a small amount of cold water, rubbed it between my hands and applied it to my problem areas. Instantly I noticed a brightening of my skin as I rubbed the mixture on my face in little circles. I rinsed with cool water and patted my face dry. As soon as I finished I applied a moisturizer. I can see and feel how clear my skin is!

Pros:

I use this as an exfoliant about every other day. Everyday for me is too much. I love it. It is cheap. It works well to exfoliate and brighten the skin some. The exfoliant is very fine. Your skin feels baby smooth.

Cons:

Do overuse. Too much exfoliation can dry the skin. Exfoliate with this product for 60seconds and that is it.

It does not make me break out; however everyone is different. Try it. It most likely will do more good than bad. I was skeptical at first. I thought, "Baking soda on your face?" But it works. You feel really clean. I use lemon as well. I put the lemon juice on first with cotton ball/little water added and let sit for 10min...then I mix 1tablespoon baking soda/1 tablespoon water and exfoliate.

Pros:

it does really work.Just wash your face with cleanser before put the soda on your face

Cons:

it tastes awful when it gets into my mouth when i make it as a mask

i have suffering acne for 2 years and i have tried everything and none of them works. I guess i have spend maybe thousands for acne cure. I began to use the baking soda after i read others reviews about the baking soda on their acne....and the results are amazing..i have used it for a week now...and i can see huge difference, the scars are fading and my acne problem are starting to stop. I recommend this to all acne sufferers out there as it does really works^^

Pros:

It significantly reduced the amount of pimples I got and helped to heal my existing acne.

Cons:

can burn when just using baking soda but I add a little honey for my sensitive skin and it doesn't burn.

It really works! I mix a couple teaspoons of baking soda with a few drops of water and a drop or two of honey in a light paste. (baking soda is a good scrub while honey moisturizes) Then, I massage my face with a hot wash cloth and spread the concoction with a cotton ball. Next, I rinse with a cold wash after a minute or two. I do this twice a day. Also, spot treatment helps to speed up the healing process even faster.
