Drink Water for Healthier Looking Skin!

We’ve all heard about the 8/8 rule (eight 8oz. glasses of water per day) and its importance in creating healthy looking skin.  But doesn’t all that water just make us go to the bathroom more? Usually, yes. The answer is to also include high-water fruits and vegetables in your diet, such as watermelon, celery, cucumbers and zucchini. Not only will you increase your water intake, but you’ll also reap all the nutritional benefits these foods provide.
