  7. It can provide relief for dry, itchy skin.
  8. It can help diminish dark circles under your eyes.

How Much Should I Be Drinking?

So how much water should you be drinking for healthy skin? The answer depends on several factors, including your age, activity level, and the climate you live in. But a good rule of thumb is to drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day.

In addition to drinking plenty of water, you can also help keep your skin hydrated by using a humidifier, especially in the winter when the air is dry. And be sure to moisturize your skin daily with a quality lotion or cream.

If you’re looking for water that’s especially good for your skin, try mineral water. Mineral water contains minerals that can help improve your skin health, such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

So ditch the sugary sodas and sports drinks, and reach for a refreshing glass of water instead. Your skin will thank you for it!
