In the article, Buzzle reported that there have been some people who have successfully get rid off their acne with baking soda.

Let’s see from the chemical ingredients. Baking soda, otherwise known as bicarbonate of soda, sodium bicarbonate, is a chemical salt with diverse practical uses. It is weakly alkaline. As such, it acts to neutralize acids and break down proteins,  commonly used for baking soda is as a leavening agent in baking.

Baking soda’s finely gritty texture makes it an excellent, gentle abrasive cleaner. As an acid neutralizer, it has long been favored for its various first-aid applications.

Well, perhaps this is the main reason of using baking soda to get rid off acne. It is inexpensive, and has a good drying capability, include drying your acne. But ofcourse, too much this chemical will not good, since it will also dry your skin :-D
