Baking soda

Ecological, economical and universal, baking soda is used in many areas. In cosmetics, it is known in particular for whitening teeth , acting on perspiration and gently exfoliating . It is also an alkalizing ingredient: widely used to increase the pH of overly acidic cosmetic preparations. Baking soda is also an essential ingredient for making homemade household products.

An all-purpose ingredient, baking soda is known and appreciated for its versatility and its many properties. First of all, the gentle mechanical action of its crystals allows the skin to be exfoliated without damaging it. Another major property of baking soda is its ability to adjust the pH (i.e. the degree of acidity of aqueous solutions) of your cosmetic preparations. Finally, baking soda is purifying: it fights effectively against fungi and blocks the development of bacteria. Baking soda is therefore an outstanding ally against perspiration, mold, dental plaque and many oral infections, etc.

Its great versatility of use makes baking soda an essential ingredient in your homemade products (cosmetics or household): shampoos, face creams, toothpastes, deodorants, household cleaning products, etc.
