dull skin

When the skin is dehydrated, signs are often easily noticeable such as dullness, peeling, roughness, thinning wrinkles and reduced elasticity. This makes the skin look aging.

However, unlike natural aging, these symptoms can appear overnight and improve rapidly when the skin is fully moisturized both inside and outside.

When skin cells are hydrated, they become fuller, helping the skin surface become smoother and brighter after just one to two days of moisturizing. In addition to drinking water, you can apply moisturizer to hydrate and prevent dehydration.

Weakened skin barrier

The skin is the body's first protective layer against harmful agents such as UV rays and pollution. When the body lacks water, skin cell function is affected, causing the skin's protective barrier to weaken. This makes the skin more susceptible to irritation, infection and aging sooner.

When the skin barrier is dry, it is often ineffective in preventing harmful factors from entering as well as retaining the necessary moisture.

Healing skin weakens more slowly

When the body is not provided with enough water, small wounds such as cuts or scratches can take longer to heal. Water plays an important role in tissue regeneration, helping to transport oxygen and nutrients to cells, while also removing waste from the body.

Maintaining adequate water intake not only supports healthy skin but also helps speed up recovery from damage.
