Why Is Hydration So Important?

There is more to hydration than how many glasses of H²0 you consume daily. It is the foundation of overall health. Water is the indispensable element that promotes wellness, beginning at the cellular level of the body. It delivers essential nutrients, vitamins, and oxygen to the cells and gives them the fuel to keep the body functioning at an optimal level. Hydration is responsible for blood pressure and kidney regulation, maintaining healthy heart function, stimulating effective digestion, and lubricating muscles and joints for optimum performance. Hydration is necessary to sustain a healthy body and mind, but it is also fundamental to the health and the vitality of the body’s largest organ, the skin.

The body loses water daily through tasks like breathing, physical activity, and environmental factors in addition to normal skin evaporation. But there is one part of the skin that is more vulnerable than the rest, the face. That’s because facial skin is always on display and directly exposed to the world. When it is well-hydrated, it is soft, supple, and radiant. It also has a great bounce or elasticity. It has a built-in barrier function that acts as a shield defending against environmental assaults and other stress factors. Minimizing water loss and maintaining the balance of hydration in the body and the complexion is essential. Otherwise, dehydration may occur.

It may be difficult to tell the difference between the two on the surface, especially when you look at the symptoms. Dry skin, for example, may feel tight, flaky, scaly, and irritated. But because of a lack of oil, the skin won’t feel or appear oily. Many of the same symptoms may be present if the skin is dehydrated, but they may be accompanied by breakouts or oiliness and dark circles around the eyes, as well as a dull appearance. If unsure, pinch a small portion of the skin on the back of the hand. If it bounces back quickly, the skin is likely dry; if it takes longer to return to its shape, it’s dehydrated.

Water Alone May Not Be the Answer

Everybody needs hydration. There is no doubt that drinking lots of water helps hydrate the body on a cellular level. When you consume H²0, it is filtered by the kidneys and absorbed into the bloodstream, bringing hydration to the cells, which benefits the entire body, including the facial skin. Drinking several glasses of room temperature water upon waking each morning, when the stomach is empty, is believed to contribute to good health and longevity in Japan. However, the skin is the last organ to receive the hydration benefits of H²0, so it is essential to take additional steps to guard against dehydration. A smart choice is a skincare ritual that incorporates products that increase and maintain water levels. This simple yet effective approach is one of the secrets to Japanese women’s beauty rituals’ success.
