You have tried a lot of the creams out there on the market, you’ve washed your face numerous times a day, and yet you are still suffering from acne a lot of the time. It’s frustrating, and unfortunately it impacts a huge amount of the population. However, when it comes to finding a cause and a remedy, there is one factor that is often overlooked: your water!
You may have heard of hard water before, and the havoc it can play on your home. Hard water in your home can drastically reduce the life expectancy of your household appliances by causing them to breakdown a lot quicker, it can result in the rusting of your pipes and faucets. Hard water can taint the taste of food, coffee and tea. It can stain your showers and faucets, and even bleed the color from your clothing. But, you may have not considered the damage hard water can also cause your skin.
Clogged Pores Thanks to Hard Water
One of the main things hard water does is clog your pores. Because hard water leaves behind calcium and magnesium on your skin, these contaminants can build up and clog your pores. With the addition of soap residue that does not properly wash away, your skin can become oily, which can result in an outbreak of acne, dry skin, rashes, and even – in extreme cases – eczema.
