Kitchen ingredients
are widely used for making home remedies for various kinds of
beauty problems
However,
some ingredients
that we
regularly use
for cooking aren’t safe for the skin at all
According to dermatologist
Dr. Aanchal Panth
, baking soda and baking powder are two unsafe items for the skin
She claims that baking powder and
baking soda
are strong bases which tends to
penetrate deeper
than acids on the skin
These two ingredients-
baking soda
and
baking powder
- causes deep burns as it binds with
lipids
and
fats on the skin
Baking soda
and
baking powder
are mostly used for applying on
knees
,
elbows
,
armpits
and sometimes even on
face
Dr. Panth suggests that better alternatives for
dark elbows
and
armpits
include G peel 12 cream,
Glyco 12 cream
and Demelan
It is always a good idea to use a moisturiser with
lactic acid
like Amylac and Lacsoft twice a day for
moisturizing your body
For
dark knees
and
elbows
, use a Melalumin EK cream on alternate nights
