If you've spent money on skincare products, tried various types of cleansing treatments, but when none of them seem to stop breakouts, we suggest you start looking elsewhere: your hard shower water.
The issue with hard water lies with its high mineral contents. Hard metals inside your water prevent soap from properly foaming and washing off, leaving behind a film-like residue on your skin AKA soap scum. And how's that connected with acne? Simply put: the buildup clogs your pores and leads to breakouts.
During an interview with Self Magazine, Dermatologist Dr. Dennis Gross explained, "Impurities from hard water causes a chemical reaction with your skin's natural oils, and changes the oil from a liquid form to wax. This, in turn, clogs your pores and can lead to breakouts. Impurities have the same response to creams too, even those that are non-comedogenic."
