How Water Quality Affects Your Everyday Cosmetics

There are numerous benefits to using purified water for all types of applications, including cosmetic and beauty reasons. Many people already use purified or distilled water for some of their beauty products, so if you’re not already doing so yourself, you might consider trying it, especially if you’re the owner of a salon or spa.

Here’s some information about the benefits of commercial water purification in Cincinnati, OH for cosmetic applications.

Distilled and purified water in salons

Distilled water is water that has gone through the distillation process, which involves separating the liquid from the other substances that might be found in it. In the process, the water gets heated up until it begins to evaporate, which completely separates it from bacteria, debris and any other microorganisms that could be found in it. The steam then condenses back into water without all these extra substances.

How exactly can distilled water be used in a commercial salon or spa setting? Here are some examples:

• Equipment: Distilled water is often used for machinery and equipment, because it does not have any of the corrosive materials that could ruin metal components in this equipment. There is a variety of tools you use in your salon or spa that have metal components, meaning they can benefit from the use of distilled water versus standard tap water.
• Detoxification: While drinking distilled water on a long-term basis is not recommended because of the lack of ions and minerals, it does help to remove harmful toxins from the body. Spas often focus on detoxifying the body and providing a rejuvenating environment, and the use of distilled water can be helpful with this.
• Face washing: Washing your face with purified water can help improve your skin. The chlorine found in tap water can result in your skin being dried out. You also don’t need to worry about “hard” tap water leaving residue behind on your skin if you use distilled water. This means you can get the most out of your beauty regimen, and your makeup will end up looking better as well.
• Hair washing: Just as the extra minerals in hard water can cause problems when washing your face or body, so too can they cause issues when washing your hair. The issues become especially problematic if the minerals react negatively to the shampoo or conditioner you use—it could cause buildups that stay on your hair and result in it feeling frizzy or rough. Instead, using distilled water as the final rinser after shampooing and conditioning can make a big difference to hair. It will prevent hair damage and create a much cleaner, more pleasant feel.
