Soda Bicarbonate Facial?

Maybe I should call this a beauty blog. I really feel the need to blog about these things because I know there might be so many guys out there who are probably going through what I am. So here goes - after a lot of googling :) I came across this beautiful tip. Mix a tsp of soda bicarb (do not confuse with baking soda) with a drop or two of plain water so that you get a paste like consistency. Now massage this on to your face specially your nose (don't scrub too hard) and then rinse off. Do not massage for more than 15-20 secs as it may start to cause a slight burning sensation If you have sensitive skin you may want to avoid this. Apparently it is supposed to get rid of blackheads. I tried it daily for three days and I am quite pleased. I can't say if my blackheads have disappeared (only because I keep looking at them non-stop - maybe I'm imagining that they have gone) but I can say that my nose is now smooooth. Also I have noticed my facial skin peeling. Ok so it's not as bad as it sounds - it's just dead skin. It could also be peeling as I had undergone a sitting of micro-dermabrasion. But as long as it's peeling I'm glad because this means the acne scars on my face will eventually lighten.

I'm hoping it just gets better from now. Oh and don't forget to apply a good moisturizer after you rinse of the soda bicarb - I go with honey. I will blog about the goodness of honey later.

Have a good weekend!

PS - TGI Friday's has put together a new winter menu!
