Age spots, also known as age spots or solar lentigines, can be an unsightly sign of aging and sun exposure. While there are many cosmetic products and treatments available, there is a simple and affordable home remedy: baking soda, a common ingredient in the kitchen. Here's how to use it to effectively and safely fade age spots.
Benefits of bicarbonate for the skin
Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) has a mild abrasive effect that helps exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells. Over time, this promotes a more even skin tone and gradually lightens blemishes.
In addition, its alkaline nature helps balance the skin's pH and maintain its natural health.
