Can drinking water really help clear up your face?

Yes, drinking more water makes the skin of your face looks healthier. Lack of water in your body makes the cells of the skin shrink, just like dry grapes.

With sufficient amount of water intake the cells of your skin becomes rigid and it makes your face glow. It is recommended that as soon as you wake up in the morning, you drink 1.5 liters of water within a period of 5-10 minutes. You should not eat anything for two hours. Then after two hours you take your normal breakfast.

Try and see the result in 2 weeks.
