Is Getting Better Skin as Easy as Refilling Your Water Bottle?

If Skin Care 101 was an actual book, “Drink Water” would definitely be the very first chapter. From estheticians to your mom to Miranda Kerr, literally anyone and everyone who cares about good skin has testified that they drink water religiously. But will drinking more water really make a noticeable difference in your complexion? Actually, yes.

Weirdly enough, the basic rule of skin care is also the one rule we keep ignoring. If you are getting your seven to eight glasses every day already, congratulations. It means that you are virtuous and on the path to wellness enlightenment. But if you keep ditching water for coffee and kombucha, we can certainly relate to your ongoing struggle.

Though adequate water consumption alone is not enough to slow down aging or treat sun damage, it is a key measure to retain elasticity and prevent breakouts. Curious what drinking more water can do for your skin? Keep reading to uncover the many, many benefits of adding more H20 to your daily (skin care) routine.
