Lemon Juice & Baking Soda Face Mask

Best Blackhead Face Mask

Equal parts baking soda and lemon juice. This is great for summer! If you have blackheads and giant pores (like me!) you will want to try this!

Let the baking soda and lemon juice mask sit on your face for 20 min. it will burn a little so make sure you are occupied not just sitting thinking about it, also try not to talk a lot your baking soda will flake off! Especially if you have sensitive skin only do this once or twice a week! The baking soda pulls out the dirt and gross things in your skin and the lemon juice tightens your pores, my face was almost glowing when I was done!

Lemon Juice & Baking Soda

How is your skin? Mine lately is terrible, the humidity and 90+ days aren't good for my skin. So I saw this face mask on Pintrest that is simply Lemon Juice and Baking soda. It works. Here's what I did...

  1. Put some baking soda in a dish (1/8 cupish)
  2. Then slowly added lemon juice until it was a consistency I could spread on my face. *Heads up you're in for a little fun, there is a little reaction, don't worry nothing explodes!
  3. Then I let it sit, it burned a bit after a little while so I rinsed it off, my face was smooth and with daily (or every other day) use is clearer!
Oddly enough, I'm thinking about trying the same mixture to clean my favorite crocks (they are adorable, they look like black ballet flats but are soooo comfy!) I think the lemon juice or the baking soda alone would be helpful but I think if I pour  the baking soda in and then the lemon juice in, the reaction may be a great Croc Cleaner! I'll let you know how it goes...
