Description
Sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda, is a versatile and gentle alkaline compound widely used in personal care and cosmetics. Known for its mild exfoliating properties, it helps remove dead skin cells, making it popular in DIY scrubs and face masks. Its natural deodorizing effect neutralizes odors, making it a common ingredient in deodorants and foot soaks. Sodium bicarbonate also balances pH, soothing irritated skin and helping to reduce acne. Additionally, it’s used in toothpaste to whiten teeth and freshen breath. However, it should be used cautiously on the skin due to its alkalinity, which can disrupt the skin’s natural barrier if overused.
