The benefits of softened water
If your skin feels, dry, itchy and irritated, continual washing in hard water may be contributing to this. The calcium and magnesium minerals in hard water make it difficult for soap to form a soft lather when washing, and can leave behind a scummy residue that can easily block up your skin pores.
These blockages prevent natural oils produced by your body, lubricating and moisturising the skin surface. Soft water is gentle on your skin. It forms a quick and easy lather with soap that can clean efficiently, and is quickly washed away, leaving your skin feeling fresh and soft. Your skin would naturally choose soft water.
Continual use of hard water gradually builds up layers of limescale in pipework, which can reduce water flow to your washing machine and dishwasher.
Your kitchen appliances will naturally last much longer as well as working to their designed efficiency.
It is not common knowledge, but soft water makes your hair look glossier too.
Softened water has a reduced mineral content so the taste is free to be enjoyed with the unsightliness of scummy films absent.

Would it be too bold to say that softened water improves eczema and psoriasis? Inadvertently it does.
