For some, the beginning of spring is the most beautiful time of the year. Our skin in particular suffers during the cold season: This is evidenced by dark circles under the eyes and skin that is dry, flaky and reddened by the winter cold and dry heating air. The wrinkles are deeper – you ask yourself, didn’t I look better last fall?

Water is life

As the snow begins to melt, the blossoming nature has a lot of liquid at its disposal for some time. It begins to grow and flourish everywhere. And it is precisely this phenomenon that we can take advantage of to revitalize our skin and give it a new radiance.

Water as a magic formula?

The skin is one of our most important organs. Depending on the individual’s height, it has a surface area of up to two square meters. It is a protective shell for the body. The skin regulates body temperature, which manifests itself in sweating, for example. You can actually see it on the skin when we drink too little. It appears flabby and dull, can no longer perform its natural excretory function smoothly, becomes impure and taut.

Without additives 

This is exactly what matters: Water, free from sugar, colorants and flavorings, is the ideal drink when it comes to doing something good for your skin and body. It is not just a thirst quencher, but a source of vitality. Depending on your taste, you can choose mineral or tap water.

If you want to give your skin an added bonus, drink mineral water containing sodium. The sodium binds more fluid in the skin, making it firmer and giving it an even fresher appearance.

If you value taste, lemon water is the latest beauty trend. The vitamin C in lemons is not only good for the immune system, but also for the skin. In combination with antioxidants, which are also contained in lemons, it helps to reduce wrinkles and skin blemishes. Simply add the freshly squeezed juice of a lemon to a glass of water in the morning – this may be at room temperature or lukewarm, depending on your taste – and drink before breakfast. The beauty booster also has a stimulating effect on metabolism and digestion.

Simple and effective

It is important for our entire organism to drink enough. As the outer covering of the body , the skin is a particularly good reflection of its vitality. If we start drinking enough healthy fluids in the morning, we will not only look more radiant in the mirror in the long term.
