18th Day, 18th Way

18.  Use baking soda for skincare
Baking soda is a fantastic multi-use product just like apple cider vinegar.  It can be used as a deodorizer, in first aid, or as fire protection.  I personally believe one of its best uses is in the form of skincare.  By placing a small amount in the palm of your hand and adding a few drops of water you can use this paste as a facial cleanser and exfoliater.  It buffs the skin leaving behind a glow without putting harsh chemicals on your skin.  Try switching out your morning routine with baking soda and water.
