  Baking soda is the secret why your yummy cakes are too fluffy! But who knew that baking soda can be a part of your daily lifestyle?

  1. GETTING THE PERFECT SMILE AND BREATH! HEHE.

  Who would have thought that the secret to a perfect smile and fresh breath is just in your kitchen? Yes, you read that right.

  Mix one teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water. Swish, spit, and rinse. It’s an easy mouthwash that neutralizes odor and whitens your teeth. You don’t really need to spend much to get white teeth and bright smile!

  2. BASKIL (BASANG KILIKILI) NO MORE!

  We grew up in a culture where we give importance to personal hygiene. And with the day-to-day activities we have plus the weather we have in our country, sweating is not a new thing.

  Sometimes, we’re not so ready when “BasKil” comes. So what do you have to do on this unexpected moments?

  Just put a pinch of baking soda in your underarm and are ready to go. Be careful, skin below there is sensitive, so take it easy.

  3. ITCHY! ITCHY!

  Too much skin irritation? Well, baking powder is here to out surge your problem!

  Mix baking powder and water in a cup then apply the solution to the itchy part of your body. Rub it for a short while then take a bath.

  4. PEELING-OFF THE MARKS OF HEAT!

  Got sun burns and blisters? Baking powder is here to the rescue!

  Yep! Yep! Baking soda is a safe anti-acid that cools down burnt areas and let it dry.

  Walking and walking everyday can be kind of tiring and straining to your feet. And with that, you have to go to spa regularly. But if you’re being practical, you can go to your nearest sari-sari store for a home-made spa through baking soda.

  Soak your tired feet in a basin with water and baking soda and relax. And oh, don’t forget to massage.

  6. HATING THE CLOGGED SINK!

  After washing that “mala-fiestangpinagkainan” some pieces of your food still got in your sink, so how to get away with that mess?

  Just put the powder on the drain then put some vinegar then flash with water and it’s done! That’s the magic of baking soda!

  Bow down to the new queen B of our lives! Who would have thought that the solution to our tiny concerns is just in our pantry? *wink*
