    I tried it because it was cheap, already sitting in my pantry, and the reviews were glowing. I mixed it into a paste and applied it to my face. To be honest, I can't really say what I was hoping...

    Be careful with BS: don't use daily, or you'll mess up your ph balance. If used properly (no more than 1x weekly), it's a great exfoliant. It's also wonderful after AHAs to bring back your ph...
