  Hi, 

  Does anyone know the usage percent of sodium bicarbonate in a facial toner? 

  Thanks.

  I’ve seen it in some formulas and I wondered why myself.  As a matter of interests I tested it and found that there didn’t seem to be any significant reason to use it. Baking soda is a lot less expensive than white willow bark extract, which I have always used. I know now that there is no reason at all to change.
