Soda is a real miracle weapon - for cleaning, against bad smells or even as a shampoo or deodorant.
For these reasons, baking soda should be available in every household.
Soda is a real wonder drug.
The white powder, also called baking soda, should not be missing in any household.
Soda not only removes stubborn dirt, it also binds odors and can even be used as a
shampoo
or
deodorant
.
Offenbach - For many people,
baking
soda is
a well-known home remedy that is often used when cleaning or baking.
Because it helps to get rid of stubborn stains and ensures that the cake rises nicely in the dough.
And for more, the white powder is often not used at all.
Wrongly, because
baking soda
, as it is also called, is a real
miracle cure
.
It can be used almost anywhere in the
home
and even in personal hygiene.
An
overview of
what the
all-rounder baking
soda can really do:
Soda: baking soda in the household - secret weapon against unpleasant smells
The white
soda powder
has the excellent property of binding odors.
If you
sprinkle baking soda
in a small bowl and put it in the
refrigerator
, bad smells are quickly neutralized.
The powder also absorbs excess moisture from the refrigerator air.
However, once a week you should change the baking soda to
permanently get rid of
bad smells
.
Even in the case of a smelly dishwasher, baking soda * works wonders because it fights
bacteria
and
fungi
.
Simply distribute two spoons of
baking soda
on the bottom of the
dishwasher
and
wait for
a
rinse
.
The machine should be empty.
You can
save money
with
baking soda
because
you can safely
do without expensive
dishwasher detergents
.
Use for baking soda | application |
---|---|
Bad smell in the fridge | Put some powder in a bowl |
Dishwasher smells | Put 2 spoons of baking soda in an empty rinse cycle |
Deodorant substitute | Mix 1-2 teaspoons with 100 milliliters of water or cream |
Shampoo substitute | 1-2 teaspoons with 100 milliliters of water |
Soda: The all-rounder in cosmetics - baking soda as a deodorant substitute
If you use baking soda as a
deodorant substitute
, you not only save money, but also protect
resources
and the
environment
.
The only thing you need is
baking soda
and
water
or
body cream
.
Mix about one to two teaspoons of baking soda with 100 milliliters of body lotion or water and add a few drops of essential oils such as tea tree or grapefruit, if you like.
The mixture of
baking soda
and water can be poured into an empty
deodorant roller
.
An empty mason jar is sufficient
for the baking soda mixture with
body cream
.
Be careful only with sensitive skin, this can be irritated by the baking soda.
Therefore, it is better to
test your self-made
deodorant
made from baking soda on a small area of skin for the first time
to check
compatibility
.

Soda: a miracle cure in cosmetics - wash your hair with baking soda
Because
baking
soda
removes dirt and grease, the white powder can also be used as
an alternative
to
shampoo
.
Here, too, the approximate mixing ratio applies: one to two teaspoons of baking soda to 100 milliliters of water.
Mix the mixture and then
massage
the
baking soda mixture
into the scalp like a shampoo.
After a reaction time of about five minutes, rinse the whole thing thoroughly.
But be careful with long-term use or with sensitive skin: Because
baking soda
can cause skin irritation here too.
It is better to
try
the
shampoo alternative
on a small area of skin first and not use it too often.

I have been using homemade deodorant made from coconut oil, cornstarch and baking soda for a long time and I am very satisfied with it.
It actually works and it lasts a long time.
The only thing that bothers me is the coconut oil.
Is it really more environmentally friendly than palm oil?
Still, says an article by @umweltgedanken (link in the first comment), but if demand increases, it is very likely that large monocultures will develop here, as with palm oil.
And it works without it: as a roll-on, simply with water instead of coconut oil.
The instructions can be found at @smarticularnet and it really doesn't make much work.
I have added thyme essential oil as a scent so that men can / want to use it too.
