Acne is a common problem among teenagers and adults alike. Treating acne can be a very long and expensive process, and leave you with little to no hope because of not so desirable results.

Baking Soda is what most people use to get rid of those pesky odors in the fridge. But it is a little known fact that baking soda helps reduce and get rid of acne all together when applied properly. To do this all you need is a box of baking soda and some water, tap will suffice. Put a fair amount of baking soda into the palm of your hand, and add water until it turns into a paste. Then apply the baking soda paste to your face and massage it throughout your face in a circular motion. Let sit for another 3 to 4 minutes then rinse off with cool water.
