Baking Soda Paste

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. If you’re planning to go outdoors after using lemon juice, make sure to apply sunscreen as it can make your skin more sensitive to UV rays.
6. Use this treatment once a week to assess your skin’s tolerance and the effect.

Now, a few precautions to keep in mind:

• Always do a patch test on a small area of your skin before applying any treatment to larger or more visible areas.
• Baking soda treatments can make your skin sensitive to the sun, so remember to always wear sunscreen to protect it from further damage.
• Avoid overusing baking soda, as it can strip your skin of essential oils and cause dryness and irritation. Use it wisely.

Remember, using baking soda to treat age spots is a simple and cost-effective method, but results may vary. If you’re dealing with persistent skin issues or want more dramatic results, it’s always a good idea to consult a dermatologist. Take care of your skin and embrace your natural beauty!
