A baking soda scrub can lift dead cells and clear pores through mild physical exfoliation. Because sodium bicarbonate is alkaline, use a balanced formula instead of raw kitchen baking soda. Products combining refined baking soda with botanical extracts cleanse effectively while keeping skin pH intact.
These clean beauty scrubs deliver similar purifying results with plant-based ingredients suitable for vegan skincare routines.
Raw baking soda is too harsh for sensitive, eczema-prone, or rosacea skin. Choose sulphate-free, paraben-free, and pH-balanced cleansers with ingredients like niacinamide or CICA to maintain calm, healthy skin. Dermatologically tested vegan formulas are a safer long-term choice for routine exfoliation.
