Here’s a comprehensive skincare detox water therapy plan using natural ingredients.
Each water targets a specific skin or body concern, and together, they create a holistic beauty routine that supports glowing, clear, and hydrated skin from the inside out.
You can rotate or combine these throughout the week. Aim to drink 2–3 varieties per day, spaced out (morning, noon, evening).
