I Erased My Age Spots With a Cheap Kitchen Ingredient — Baking Soda Paste

Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate, can do wonders for your skin. It acts as a gentle exfoliant, removing dead skin cells and gradually fading age spots. Plus, its alkaline nature helps balance the pH of your skin, promoting its natural health.

 

Ingredients:

  • 2 teaspoons of baking soda
  • Enough water to form a paste

Instructions:

  1. Mix the baking soda with a small amount of water in a bowl until it forms a thick paste.
  2. Gently apply the paste to the age spots using your fingers. Remember, no scrubbing too hard!
  3. Let the paste sit on the spots for about 5 minutes. If you have sensitive skin, start with 2-3 minutes.
  4. Rinse off the paste with lukewarm water and pat dry with a soft towel.
  5. Don’t forget to moisturize the area to keep your skin hydrated.
  6. Repeat this treatment 2-3 times a week, but pay attention to your skin’s response and adjust accordingly.

Ingredients:

  • 2 teaspoons of baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, combine baking soda and lemon juice. Be prepared for a little fizz!
  2. Once the fizzing subsides, gently apply the mixture to the age spots using a cotton swab or your fingers.
  3. Leave the mixture on for no longer than 5 minutes, as lemon juice can be photosensitizing.
  4. Rinse off the mixture thoroughly with lukewarm water, and don’t forget to moisturize.
  5. Use this treatment once a week to assess your skin’s tolerance and the effect.
