Are you one of the many who spend thousands of dollars on expensive face and hair care products? You can now say goodbye to all of these chemical-laden expensive products and try one of the following natural remedies which will make your face glow and hair shine. The secret? They all use baking soda as the main ingredient and baking soda can do wonders for you! Read on to find out how baking soda can help you improve your skin and hair quality with these simple beauty hacks.
Baking soda natural deodorant
Make your own natural deodorant by mixing a teaspoon of baking soda with enough water to create milky paste, then rub it under your underarms or even on your feet.
Baking Soda and Water
Take a little bit of baking soda and combine it with warm water to create paste. Apply the resulting paste to your face or skin using gentle circular movements. Then, rinse it off with warm water.
In this way you will thoroughly cleanse your face and the dead cells will be removed. Also, it will unclog your skin pores.
Baking Soda and Ground Oats
Add some ground oats in water with baking soda in 1:6 ratio. Massage your face with the resulting mixture using your fingertips. Avoid eye contact. Wash it off with warm water.
Baking Soda and Lemon
This is an excellent way to disinfect your skin, reduce age spots and cleanse your skin.
Combine 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar in a cup. Then, fill ¼ of the cup with lemon juice. Mix well until the ingredients are well combined.
Apply the resulting mixture on slightly wet skin and allow it to act for 10 minutes. Rinse it off with warm water.
Baking Soda and Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has powerful moisturizing properties. The mixture of coconut oil with baking soda will exfoliate and soften your skin, and it can do wonders for irritated and dry skin.
Baking soda shampoo
Mix 1 part of baking soda and 3 parts of water in a small squeeze bottle. You can adjust the dosing depending on your hair length, for instance, in case of shoulder length hair, mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of baking soda and 3 times that amount of water.
Apply the shampoo on wet or dry hair, starting at the roots and working your way down to the ends. Leave it on for 1-3 minutes and rinse. It may be weird washing the hair without shampoo foam at the beginning but you’ll get used to it. After you see the final results you’ll wish you’d started this sooner. Use warm water to rinse it all off your hair.
