If you’re referring to a claim that baking soda cream can make wrinkles and blemishes disappear, it’s worth being cautious. Baking soda is alkaline and can irritate or dry out skin, especially on the face. It may temporarily make skin feel smoother, but there is no good evidence that it removes wrinkles or reliably clears blemishes. Frequent use can disrupt the skin barrier and worsen redness or sensitivity.
A gentler bedtime routine for smoother-looking skin is usually:
- Wash with a mild cleanser.
- Use a moisturizer suited to your skin type.
- Apply proven ingredients such as retinoids (for wrinkles) or niacinamide (for uneven tone and blemishes) if appropriate.
- Use sunscreen during the day to help prevent further skin aging.
If you still want to try a DIY product, patch-test it first on a small area and stop if you notice burning, itching, or irritation.
