Baking soda is a super ingredient to cleanse the skin, keep it smooth and free of impurities, and to remove blackheads.
In addition, it helps to neutralize the pH level that can be affected by makeup and other products. When the pH value changes, bacteria, fat and blackheads can occur.
Note the following masks to remove blackheads. You will see that they are very simple and good for your skin.
Why use baking soda to remove blackheads?
- Baking soda is a natural ingredient with no associated side effects, as long as you do not use it excessively.
- The bubbling effect of baking soda gently cleanses your skin and literally pulls dirt out of your pores. This is the ingredient to use if your pores are very clogged.

- ½ cup lemon juice (125 ml)
Use
- Mix all the ingredients together and apply the mixture to your face. Make sure your face is clean.

Rosemary water softens and moisturizes the skin, while closing the pores. This is good because the smaller your pores are, the less chance of toxins accumulating in them.
Furthermore, rosemary water counteracts inflammation and is good for sensitive skin, as it cleanses gently.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons warm water (30 ml)
- 2 tablespoons baking soda (30 g)
Use
- Clean your face as you normally would, or with water and a mild soap.
- Mix rosemary and baking soda together and apply the resulting mass over the areas where you have blackheads.
- Let it work for 15 minutes.
- Rinse with warm water and dry with a soft towel.
Apply moisturizer and repeat this treatment 3 times a week.
4. Baking soda and milk

- 1 tbsp baking soda (15 g)
- 1 tbsp whole milk (15 ml)
Use
- Mix the ingredients together to make a mass.
- Apply it on clean skin and let it work for 1 minute.
- Remove it with warm water and clean in a circular motion.
- Apply it three times a week.
Things to be careful of when using these masks
Baking soda is a very neutral substance. However, there are certain things that are important to remember:
- Avoid using these masks where you have skin irritations. Although the majority of the ingredients will not cause any problems, you can irritate wounds. The best choice is to wait until they are healed and the irritation is gone. It usually takes about two to five days. If you notice that your skin does not improve, you should visit a dermatologist.
- Do not use the masks too much. If you use them more often than suggested, they can cause irritation to your skin. Even if you have a lot of blackheads, you should keep in mind the instructions we have suggested. It is perfectly normal, with any beauty product, to start noticing the results after three weeks of use.
- Stop using these masks if they give you any problems at all. Although you may not have had any problems with any of these ingredients before, stop using them if you notice any adverse effects. Environmental factors and other beauty products can often lead to problems, even if you have never experienced them before.
