The baking soda exfoliates and fights acne while the acid in the orange juice tightens pores and the Vitamin C brightens (you can use a different type of citrus juice but you won’t get quite the same effect).
Use 1-2 times/week depending on skin’s sensitivity.
- Mix 1 tsp. real orange juice with 1 T. baking soda.
- Spread a thin layer on face, neck and décolletage.
- Leave on for 20 minutes.
- Dampen finger tips and scrub mask in circular motions for extra exfoliation. Rinse.
- Follow with a gentle toner and moisturizer.
NOTES:
The mask will tingle and itch a little so it’s good too have a distraction—paint your nails, watch TV, but whatever you do, don’t talk. As the paste dries, any facial movements will cause it to flake off. Your skin may be pink afterwards, but that will dissipate.
