(NC)-After a hectic December, January is the perfect time to focus on yourself and avoid the January 'blahs'. Why not make a back-to-basics approach the hygiene part of your new year's resolution?

"So many of us feel guilty, or just forget to take time for ourselves," says Trudy Nyairo, marketing manager for Arm & Hammer Dental Care. "After the busy holiday season, the simplest of things can help us rejuvenate and get ready for the great year ahead."

Nyairo's secret for back-to-basics pampering? Baking soda. It is a safe yet powerful naturally sourced ingredient found in some personal care products that can keep you feeling fresh, clean and confident. It's an environmentally-sensible choice, too.

Your Smile

Your smile is one of the first things that people notice about you, but many of us don't brush our teeth for long enough to get the full benefits. In addition to longer brushing, choosing toothpaste that offers deep cleaning and effective whitening will make your smile brighter and improve your oral health. Look for toothpaste with baking soda - Arm & Hammer Extra Whitening toothpaste uses an advanced baking soda formula with micro-polishers that penetrate tiny crevices to help gently clean away stains, leaving you with a sparkling white smile. Baking soda also gives you long-lasting fresh breath by neutralizing bacterial acids in your mouth.

"Red wine, coffee, berries, and other goodies we devour at holiday parties can leave some pretty nasty stains on teeth," says Nyairo. "Arm & Hammer Extra Whitening toothpaste with baking soda is a gentler option to help restore the natural whiteness of your smile and prevent new stains from forming."

The Rest of You Baking soda helps to keep the rest of you fresh, too. Odour-neutralizing baking soda is an effective and beneficial ingredient in an antiperspirant or deodorant.

Baking soda can be found in stick forms of deodorant and antiperspirant, offering easy application and effective protection from odour and wetness.
