Drinking Water for Beauty

When my business partner was asking how drank more than 8 glasses of water per day in our recent Beauty Workshop, I realized that many did not fulfill this as part of our basic beauty regiment. In fact, the most value for money way to maintain skin wellness.

We all want smooth, soft, unblemished skin. But sometimes it seems like great skin is either something you born with or something you can never achieve. These days, the medical industry has created skin care treatments that are halfway between plastic surgery and serious cosmetics. You can have your skin sanded, chemically peeled, zapped with lasers, frozen or injected with Botox, the catchy hyphenated name for botulism toxin. You can spend thousands of dollars in a pretty short period of time to achieve results that may or may not be what you hoped for.
Nevertheless, there is an existence of the most wonderful skin care treatments is easily available to everyone, has side benefits that affects not just your rosy glow but your whole body, and is utterly painless to use. It’s called water, and you drink it everyday.

Not coffee or another other beverages. Yes, coffee has water. It also has an abundance of interesting chemicals including caffeine, which raises your heartbeat, exaggerates stress on the body and causes diuresis, or loss of hydration. That cappuccino may taste good, but it is also going to increase under eye circles, make your kidneys work harder than they should, and can result in breakouts, flushing and blotchy skin.

The facts are these. Nothing can replace the magical, rejuvenating effects of that old classic, H2O.

All this while, I have been drinking 2.5 to 3 litres of water everyday. If I do not remember wrongly, this habit started when I play netball in my school days. When we are thirsty, simply just turn on the tap and drink, never thought about the quality of the water from the old pipes of our school.
When I came into the skin and wellness business, we get to understand that quality of water plays an important part too.

When we go to one of our my business partner's place for meeting, we try the water (that has been filtered) from that, claimed to be filtered with the No 1 water treatment system in the world. When I sipped my glass of water, I totally understood the statement. No weird chemical smells, no salty-chlorinated creepiness, just clean, tasty water. This stuff, I can drink and use with peace in mind!

I have been using these clean quality water to service my clients during facial. They are very important people, entrusting their skin health to me. Therefore, the best should be given, from water to product. Besides, this water (without chlorine and other chemicals) enhanced and calm skin.

I understand that there are many brands of water treatment system in the market. Before investing, do check out the facts first as there are many false claims! One good reference: www.nsf.org
Be wise.
