• Skin Barrier Disruption: High alkalinity strips natural protective oils, leaving skin vulnerable to bacteria, redness, and inflammation.
• Micro-Tears and Irritation: The jagged, crystalline structure of baking soda creates tiny abrasions on delicate facial skin when rubbed.

• Increased Sun Sensitivity: Damaging your skin barrier makes your face significantly more susceptible to UV damage and hyperpigmentation.
