With everyone spilling their beauty secrets online, it can be hard to come by ones that actually work. Yet, 25 year-old actress Suki Waterhouse— and new face of French beauty brand, Laura Mercier— just stunned us with her go-to beauty hack.

Anyone with dry skin can attest to the frustration of testing different methods for a clear and refreshed complexion. Our body is constantly producing new skin cells, which means the old, dead ones get pushed to the forefront and sometimes cause acne. What’s one way to pick up those dead cells and make room for healthy ones?
Enter modern-day beauty, Waterhouse, who told Harper’s Bazaar in a recent interview that she keeps baking soda in her purse for facial emergencies. To create the homemade exfoliator, she suggests mixing “a tiny bit of baking soda into your moisturizer and then you mush it all in and wash it off.”

In addition to its abrasive qualities, baking soda’s moisturizing properties also aid in calming irritated skin. But don’t go baking soda crazy warns Waterhouse; “I don’t do it very often at all, maybe once a month?” Constant exfoliation can damage skin more than heal it, so try not to over-do it. Alternatively, there are a host of exfoliating products that also cater to specific skin types.
