What it is
Tap water and skin often have a complicated relationship, especially in hard water areas where high mineral content can disrupt the skin barrier. This residue can lead to dryness, irritation and an overall imbalance.
How it works in skincare
Using filtered water for cleansing or following up with a toner can help minimise these effects. Choosing a gentle, hydrating cleanser can further protect your skin from harsh tap water, keeping it balanced and healthy.
For those particularly sensitive to hard water, incorporating barrier-repair products into your routine may also provide added relief and support.
