How Much Water Should We Drink?

Hydration is the cornerstone of healthy, radiant skin. When your body is properly hydrated, your skin appears plumper, more elastic, and less prone to fine lines and wrinkles. Dehydrated skin, on the other hand, can become dry, flaky, and more susceptible to irritation and premature ageing.

Water is essential for flushing out toxins from the body, which directly impacts the clarity of your complexion. Adequate hydration also supports the skin’s natural barrier function, helping it retain moisture and protect against external irritants.

The general recommendation is to drink at least 2 litres of water per day, though your specific needs may vary based on factors like climate, activity level, and overall health. Eating water-rich foods, such as cucumbers, watermelon, and oranges, can complement your water intake and provide additional hydration benefits.

To ensure you’re staying hydrated, carry a reusable water bottle with you and sip throughout the day. Incorporating herbal teas or infused waters can make hydration more enjoyable and encourage you to drink more.

Beyond skin, into wellbeing
