Here’s a health and beauty benefit from sparkling water you may not have thought of. Washing your face with sparkling water can lead to healthier and more beautiful skin as explained in recent articles in Allure and Cosmopolitan magazines.

Part of the reason, says Miami-based dermatologist Roberta Del Campo, is that “carbonated water has a slightly acidic pH of 5.5, which coincidentally is the same pH as our skin. On the other hand, tap water has a pH of 7, which can disrupt the skin’s outermost layer, leading to dryness and irritation.” Furthermore, Del Campo says, carbonated water acts as a vasodilator, meaning it can improve blood supply to your skin and result in a healthier, brighter, rosier complexion.

Using carbonated water in beauty products, such as sheet masks and toners, has long been a trend in Japan and Korea and is now beginning to catch on in the United States. Dr. Del Campo recommends using a gentle, soap-free cleanser that has a similar pH to our natural skin along with the sparkling water. In this article on the Allure website, she states that washing the face with sparkling water is essentially an option for everyone, even those with sensitive skin. However, for some individuals with extremely sensitive skin, the skin will need to adjust over time and therefore, there may be initial irritation if used daily.

Syfo Original Seltzer is reverse osmosis purified water and has the highest carbonation. Syfo Naturally Flavored Sparkling Waters are also made with 100% purified water and the all-natural flavorings are made by electively extracting the oil from the peel of the fruit. So don’t forget to enjoy a glass as Syfo is great for your taste buds as well!
