Does drinking a lot (healthy amount) of water help reduce oily skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
We think it can ...: Water, obviously, plays a vital role in keeping your body functioning optimally. Dehydration can contribute to dry skin, which then stimulates skin's oil gland production. Conversely, drinking 64 to 80 ounces of water a day will hydrate your entire body and send signals from the brain to your skin that excess oil is no longer needed. It's worth trying! And it's great for general health! Good luck
