Adding mineral water to drinks is a great idea. With wine, for example, it works amazingly, as well as with gin and other spirits. In addition, you can experiment with more than just alcohol. Homemade lemonade or refreshing mineral water drinks will get new flavor notes.

Beauty of hair and body

 

The minerals contained in high-quality bottled water can strengthen skin cells and slow down the aging process. That is why you can use mineral water as a moisturizing lotion and a component of home masks.

Moisturize your skin before applying makeup. Simply apply water to a cotton pad and wipe your face. And if you pour the mineral water into a small spray bottle, it is convenient to use it during the day as a facial spray.

Moisturizing with mineral water can be not only the skin, but also the hair. The spray is perfect for the summer heat, and adding to the shampoo will strengthen the hair.

In the fight against cough

Natural mineral water will be an excellent helper in the fight against colds. The easiest recipe is to prepare a warm drink based on milk and mineral water. It is able to soothe an irritated throat and moisturize the mucous membranes.

To eliminate pollution

 

If you have stains on your upholstered furniture that you can’t wash with anything, don’t lose heart! Try making your own homemade cleanser. To do this, combine in equal proportions any liquid soap, vinegar and mineral water. Gently mix everything and apply on the stain. Leave for 5 minutes and then easily clean with a sponge or brush. Here is such a simple cocktail that can restore its former appearance to a damaged sofa.

Entertaining experiences

 

If you want to instill in your child an interest in science, or maybe just want to entertain, mineral water will help with this.

You will need a glass of mineral water and a handful of raisins. Pour water into a glass and add raisins. Enjoy the amazing dance - the raisins either float up, then sink back to the bottom. Such a dance does not last long, as the gas will soon escape and the raisins will settle in the glass. Before this happens, tell your child about the amazing ability of carbon dioxide to raise small particles to the surface. And after the gas bubbles burst, the raisins are no longer able to stay on top, so they fall down.
