So, have you heard about the new bottled water being sold in the UK? It's called Beauty water, and it's manufacturer is claiming it helps clear acne.

This "designer" water contains Praventin™, a protein which they claim inhibits the development of the acne-inducing Propionibacterium acnes. Manufacturers also say this protein reduces inflammation.

I do believe a good diet, with plenty of fresh water daily, helps to keep both your skin and body healthy. But an acne-fighting water? As much as I'd love to believe it (I'd guzzle gallons a day!) I'm reminded of the old adage: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. But what do you think? Would you try it? Let us know in the acne forum.
