pH Imbalance: Healthy skin thrives at a slightly acidic pH (4.5–5.5). Baking soda’s high alkalinity can strip essential oils and disrupt your skin’s natural microbiome. 🧪
Abrasive Exfoliation: The crystalline structure of baking soda can create micro-tears on delicate skin if scrubbed too harshly. 🔬
