JAKARTA - Some people start to worry when using chemical products, including deodorants and perfumes because they come into direct contact with sensitive parts of the skin.

This reason encourages the search for natural substances that have not been processed and are not processed and then make them deodorant, such as soda cake or sodium bicarbonate. However, can one of the cake ingredients really be used as a natural dish?

As reported by the Indian Express, the idea of a soda cake that can also serve as a destination comes from the fact that the material can absorb the smell. When stored in an open box in a refrigerator, the soda cake removes the foul smell in it.

The study of the US National Library of Medicine National Institute of Health shows that cake soda has an anti-microbial effect. This means that the material could potentially fight the smell of the body caused by bacteria in the armpits. However, not much research has proven that cake soda can be used as a destination.

If you want to try making it at home, start by mixing a little powdered soda cake with warm water, until it becomes pasta. Apply gently to the armpits. Let it dry before you dress. However, you need to do a paste test first so you can assess whether there is a skin sensitivity or allergies.

Although it can fight the smell, there are several risks when using cake soda, including redness skin, rashes, itching, especially if you have sensitive skin. Healthy skin should be more acidic, the presence of alkaline substances can interfere with the skin's natural acidity level. You can consult a doctor first before deciding to use cake soda as a destination.
