Here’s a mind-bender: you can soften your shower water with vitamin C. Ascorbic acid neutralizes chlorine and binds to calcium, making it less likely to cling to your skin. Drop a vitamin C shower head filter into your setup, and you’ll get a subtle citrus scent in the steam.
It’s not just for hippies. Japan has used vitamin C filters in public baths for years to protect hair color and skin health. Plus, it’s a fun fact to drop at your next dinner party: “I shower with orange juice supplements.”
