    Maybe if you are dehydrated, drinking more water can help, but actual dehydration isn't all that common. In addition, despite what you may have heard, there isn't much evidence that drinking more water actually affects the hydration of your skin significantly.

    What's the best home remedy to look after my skin and slow down aging?
    Community Answer
    The best most basic treatment is using sunscreen and staying hydrated. You can also exfoliate twice a week using raw honey (which has great skin healing properties) and sugar and gently scrub your face, neck and decolletage ( the area between your neck and breasts). If you don't want to use a commercial moisturizer you could try using coconut oil which is also a good occasional hair treatment prior to washing your hair.

    You should drink lots of water daily (about 8-12 cups). You can also use coconut oil to moisturize your face, it reduces wrinkles and makes your face look younger and moisturized. You can do facial exercises, they tighten your skin. Wash your face twice daily (not more than that), this cleanses your pores thoroughly and gives your skin a natural glow as it removes dust particles from your skin.
