I am not a dermatologist, but drinking water regularly is one of the best things you could do for your physical health and skin. This should come as no surprise since our skin contains 64 percent water. Replenishing the water in our skin by drinking the recommended 8 glasses of water a day is the sensible thing to do. I make sure I drink as much water as possible throughout the day. It is a lot easier for me to drink more water these days since I have cut out fizzy drinks from my diet. I am also on a natural healthy sort of diet and that eliminates lots of drinks and food, which leaves room for more water.
Drink more water and give your skin a daily makeover
So how does water really help the skin? Here are a few skin benefits of drinking water to get that daily makeover –
Water removes toxins
Drinking the right amount of water will help get rid of toxins in your body, which will help you glow from the inside out. If you are dealing with facial spots, acne, and other skin issues, you should try drinking more water if you are not doing so already. That may just do the trick!
Water keeps the skin hydrated
Apart from removing skin toxins, water also keeps the skin hydrated. Water is pretty much a natural moisturiser. I see many people spending a lot of money on skincare products but neglecting their diet. Drinking the right amount of water every day is the fastest way to keep your skin hydrated.
Here are some celebrities who swear by drinking water –
Beyonce
“I try to take care of myself, drinking at least a gallon of water with lemon a day,”
Gabrielle Union
“I try to drink a gallon of water a day, and I try to get in 32 ounces with breakfast,”
Rosie Huntington Whiteley
“As soon as I wake up, I try and drink a liter of water,”
My lips usually let me know when I need to drink more water. They get really dry, and that is my reminder to increase my water intake. Since I started drinking more water religiously, I have noticed a huge difference in my skin. It is a lot clearer and there is a glow for sure. Drinking enough water is one of the best things you could ever do for your skin. So make sure you drink more water and give your skin a daily makeover!
