Are You Using Hard Water?
by Louise Forrest
 
You have dry skin you look after in order for it hopefully remove itself. You have the best organic creams and lotions, you are washing your face with the highest level of care but for some reason it will still not go away. What is going wrong?

There is nothing that you are doing wrong. Whilst you are using the facial and body products there is still one other product that is applied to your skin on a daily basis also.

And that one other thing is the water that you use. A lot of people just do not know the type of water that they have, and if you have had dry skin for some and it will not go away then this is something that you need to find out.

As well as hard water there is also soft water. If after trying all the various products that you can get your hands and you are still suffering with dryness, then it is more than likely that the water you are using is hard.

When water is described as being hard it means that it contains a lot of calcium and iron deposits. This can often be seen by deposits of lime in your electric kettle and if these deposits are being put on your skin then you can see why you just might have dry skin.

The problem with hard water is that is much more difficult for anything to dissolve in it, so traces are left behind and these traces are left behind on the skin


So what can you do about this then?

Well there are some solutions but they are by no means cheap. They will essentially involve you needing to fit special filters to shower heads for instance in order to help soften the water and to filter out any impurities.

Such filters will work in a way similar to a water filter. They will remove any of the unwanted particles leaving behind clean and softer water that is safe and also a lot more enjoyable to drink.
