Also, lack of water weakens the skin’s “barrier function,” the layer that protects the skin from external pollution, heat, and allergens. This makes the skin more sensitive to external factors.
How much water is needed for healthy skin?
According to experts, each person’s water requirement depends on their weight, lifestyle and climate. Generally a healthy person should drink 2.5 to 3 liters of water per day. If you sweat a lot, exercise or live in a hot climate, increase this amount.
