Baking soda face wash is probably the easiest baking soda remedy there is for blackheads.A little baking soda goes a long way for blackheads, but don’t overdo it, as it can seriously dry out your skin thanks to its saltiness.Baking soda can exfoliate the skin, making it smooth and soft. Apart from that, baking soda assists in neutralizing the pH level of your skin, which in turn allows the skin to release less oil.
