On the occasion of World Water Day, we bring you the health and beauty benefits of water.
Drinking water has multiple benefits on the skin and hair. A glass of hot or cold water can fix your health problems to a great extent. Water also provides you with healthy, radiant, younger looking skin. On the other hand, not drinking enough water will make your skin dry, flaky and tight which in turn makes it wrinkly and less resilient.
