But it should not be hard for you to get them from the store and they are not as expensive as commercial skin care products.

BAKING SODA IS A BAD IDEA. Those who have sensitive skin should avoid baking soda, although there are many articles which highly recommend baking soda for nicer skin or skin conditions. The truth is that the alkaline substances in baking soda can cause severe allergic reactions and irritation.
