Sometimes the skin can be underestimated, even though it is the largest organ of our body and the most exposed, and sometimes the care is only external, neglecting a primordial part of it, which is the internal hydration.

The internal hydration allows the skin to get rid of toxins, helping the skin, in this case, its outermost layer, the cornea, to fulfill its functions of mechanical protection and barrier against water loss, as other elements can affect it.

Factors that Impact the Skin

Skin can be altered by temperature changes, whether it is hot or cold weather, UV radiation, humidity level, pollution, makeup use, and insufficient nutrition, are some of the factors that cause a negative impact.

And although it may not seem to be a problem, excessive hygiene can also result in dehydration of the skin, often including the use of alcohols that dehydrate the skin even more.

Therefore, you should think of a source that keeps it in an optimal condition every time, like water, because it is the principal source of healthy skin, but you must choose the best quality water. In Alxedo, our commitment is to provide people with pure, healthy water that tastes so fresh that you can taste it in every drop.

Water that, besides having a very light taste, helps your whole body to have an ideal hydration level.

What happens when the skin is not hydrated?

Otherwise, when there is poor hydration, you will have:

  • A skin without luminosity.
  • Lack of elasticity and softness.
  • Premature expression lines

Another symptom that indicates the skin requires water is dehydrated lips, this symptom shows the body has been asking for this essential liquid for a while.

As you can see, your skin is constantly talking to you, the point is to take the time to listen to it to take care of it, so that it continues taking care of you.
