Filtered Shower Water: The Secret to Better Skin and Hair

Still dealing with dry skin, frizz or scalp issues—no matter what you use? The real problem might be in your water.

You’ve changed your moisturizer.

You’ve tried the silk pillowcase.
You’ve invested in the $70 shampoo.

But your skin still feels tight after the shower.
Your hair still frizzes, tangles or flakes by day two.
The truth? It might not be your products — it might be your water.

What’s Really in Your Shower Water?

Tap water often contains chlorine, minerals like calcium and magnesium (aka hard water), and even heavy metals like lead or copper. These are great for sterilizing pipes... Less great for your skin barrier.

The top culprits:

  • Chlorine: Strips skin’s natural oils, causing dryness, irritation, and premature aging. It can also disrupt your scalp microbiome.
  • Hard Water: Leaves behind a mineral film that blocks moisture, fades hair color, and weighs down curls.
  • Metals: Trace heavy metals may worsen skin conditions like eczema and rosacea.

Skin: Hydration Starts in the Shower

Filtered water removes harsh chemicals that strip your skin’s protective barrier. That means:

✨ More moisture retention
✨ Less post-shower tightness or itching
✨ A calmer, brighter complexion

Dermatologists agree: water quality directly affects how your skin reacts, absorbs serums, and maintains glow.

Hair: Strength, Shine, and Scalp Health

When you rinse with hard water, minerals bond to your strands, making them dull, heavy, and brittle over time. Color-treated hair fades faster, and curly hair loses definition.

Filtered water benefits:

🌿 Longer-lasting color
🌿 Less frizz and breakage
🌿 A balanced, healthy scalp (hello, volume and clarity!)

Think of it this way: if you wash your face and hair with filtered bottled water on vacation, why not give yourself that luxury every day without the waste?
