Hard water contains high concentrations of minerals such as calcium and magnesium. These minerals can build up on the skin and cause dryness. The dry skin can cause a feeling of tightness and itching.

The minerals in hard water can affect the skin's natural protective barrier. This can make the skin less able to retain moisture, leading to dryness and itching.

The dryness caused by chlorine: Chlorine is often used in tap water...

Chlorine is often used in tap water to kill bacteria and other harmful microorganisms. However, chlorine has a dryness effect on the skin because it removes the natural oils that keep the skin moist and supple. Without these oils, the skin becomes dry and more prone to itching.

Irritants and sensitization: Both the minerals in hard water...

Both the minerals in hard water and chlorine can act as irritants, especially for those with sensitive skin. With regular exposure, these substances can cause the skin to become sensitized, which can increase the itching.

Altered skin pH: Hard water can also...

Hard water can also alter the pH of the skin, making it more prone to dryness and irritation. An unbalanced pH can lead to a feeling of dryness and the need to scratch.

Protects your skin barrier against hard water and chlorine

The skin barrier (epidermis) is the outermost layer of skin, which acts as a protective layer to protect the skin from external influences and to prevent moisture loss.

Vitamin C binds to magnesium and calcium and prevents them from being deposited in layers on skin and hair.

The skin barrier, also known as the outer layer of the skin or stratum corneum, is the protective layer that protects the body from external influences.

This barrier protects the skin from the penetration of harmful substances, bacteria and chemicals, while also preventing the loss of Feuchtigkeit.

  • Hard water contains high concentrations of minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which can dry out and leave a film on the skin. This damages the barrier, which can lead to irritation and increased sensitivity.
  • Chlorine, which is often found in tap water, also strips the skin of its natural oils, further weakening the barrier and leaving the skin prone to dryness, cracking and itching.

Therefore, it is important to protect the skin barrier to keep the skin healthy, hydrated and resistant to external aggressions.

Using a filter shower head that reduces these harmful substances can help keep your skin from drying out, maintain its suppleness, and avoid unpleasant itching. This way, your skin stays healthy and radiant, even with daily showers.

Chlorine (poison) is absorbed extremely quickly and attacks the skin barrier

Vitamin C, however, neutralizes chlorine very quickly and efficiently
