Did
you know?
Reverse osmosis is the finest water filtration method known. This process will
allow the removal of particles as small as ions from a solution. It is used
to purify water and remove salts and other impurities in order to improve the
color, taste or properties of the fluid. R.O. uses a membrane that is semi-permeable,
allowing the fluid that is being purified to pass through it, while rejecting
other ions and contaminants from passing.
This technology uses a process
known as crossflow to allow the r.o. membrane to continually clean itself. This
is the reason of why an r.o. element can last many years before clogging or
need replacement. This
water purification process requires a driving force to push the fluid through
the membrane, and the most common force is household water pressure or pressure
from a booster pump. The higher the pressure, the larger the driving force and
efficiency.

WATER AND BEAUTIFUL SKIN
It’s no wonder that spas across the nation are turning toward filtered
water system. Many spa owners claim that regular tap water contains bacteria
and minerals which can clog pores. Over time, this can mean dull skin.
Experts say the cleaner the water, the better it can clean. The
purer the water, the more pure the skin. (Seems like a no-brainer.) Filters
help weed out thinks like chlorine and heavy metal. The cleaner, softer
water, they say, attributes to not only clearer, but also softer skin.
Heavy water can irritate skin, even making it red. Also, reverse-osmosis
filters make water molecules smaller, which can penetrate and hydrate
the skin better. According to an MSN Lifestyle article, Diane Somerville
(a Hollywood facialist) swears by it.
But, while spa-going is a luxurious way to spend the afternoon,
it’s not practical for everyone’s wallet, everyday. With a filtered water
system at home, cleansing the face in your own sink can have the same
radiant effect on your skin.
Some critics say that these metals aren’t dangerous to the skin.
But- how can a glowing face be wrong? So, perhaps the search over. The
fountain of youth could be springing at your home, after all.
The trend of filtered water aiding in skin care has also been bottled
up, beyond faucets. Upscale bottled water brand Evian sells water sprays
for the skin. They claim it can refresh and rejuvenate the skin. This
product appeals to jetsetters or office workers whose face and skin may
get dry from the cabin or cubicle air, as well as to athletes to soothe
the sun or cool a perspired face.
So, the word from spa owners to water bottlers is that filtered
water is far better for keeping a beautiful complexion. And- we also
can’t forget that being hydrated always helps skin glow as well. From
inside out, filtered water is “in for your skin!”
