This information is from Grandparents.com and too good to keep to myself. This will be listed in 3 parts. Enjoy.
Women spend about $426 billion on beauty products each year. You can forgo the expensive products and still look and feel fabulous with just one do-it-all tool - and it only costs about a dollar. Find out how to use plain old baking soda to get great hair, skin, nails, and more.
Smell Better
You can even use baking
soda in place of your deodorant. A pinch of baking soda mixed with water
provides a paste that doubles as a natural deodorant. If you’re having trouble
making it stick, try applying a little cornstarch first. But if you aren’t
ready to part with your antiperspirant, just sprinkle some baking soda in your
shoes for an easy, cheap deodorizer
Get Cleaner Nails
Yellowing, stained nails
can make your hands look older. Nail experts recommend making a paste with equal
parts hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, and using a nail scrub brush to scrub
underneath and on top of your nails. Let it sit for a few minutes and rinse
off. Persistently yellow nails, however, could be a sign of a fungal infection.
See a doctor if your nails don’t lighten up.
Exfoliate Rough Skin
Baking soda is also
great as an exfoliator. Use three parts baking soda to one part water and rub
onto rough elbows, feet, hands, or other spots to exfoliate dry, scaly skin. Do
not use on cracked or broken skin, however.
