If there is one thing that all of us have in common, it’s the fact that we get wrinkles when we get older. Admittedly, some people age gracefully but many of us would like to avoid the aging process to the extent possible.
Believe it or not, you may actually have the items you need to reduce or even eliminate wrinkles right in your kitchen cabinets. One of those items is baking soda, known as an exfoliant and a product that can balance the pH of the skin.
You can make the simple product we have for you below and use it to care for your skin on a regular basis. It contains many items that help with your skin, including coconut oil and its antiaging properties, honey, and essential oils.
Make sure that you try this product on a patch of skin that is not on your face to check for any allergic reactions before using it.
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons of Baking Soda
1 Tablespoon of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
1 Teaspoon of Honey
A few drops of Essential Oil (like lavender or tea tree oil for added benefits)
Step 1: Meticulous Mixing
Combine the baking soda, coconut oil, and honey in a clean bowl. Ensure all components are blended thoroughly to form a consistent cream. For an aromatic touch and additional skin benefits, introduce a few drops of your chosen essential oil.
Step 2: Application Bliss
Gently apply the mixed cream to your face, focusing on areas affected by wrinkles, spots, or blackheads. Use upward, circular motions, being careful around the sensitive eye area.
Step 3: Relax and Rejuvenate
Allow the cream to work its magic for 5-10 minutes. During this time, the baking soda will gently exfoliate dead skin cells, while the coconut oil moisturizes, and honey adds an anti-inflammatory benefit.
Step 4: Gentle Removal
Rinse off the cream with lukewarm water, using a soft cloth to carefully wipe away any remaining residue. Pat your skin dry and observe its refreshed appearance.
Step 5: Consistent Care
For optimal results, consider integrating this baking soda cream into your skincare routine 1-2 times per week.
