Vitamin C Revitalizing Shower Filter

If your skin feels tight or your hair feels straw-like after a shower, chlorine in your tap water could be part of the reason. The Vitamin C Revitalizing Shower Filter uses ascorbic acid to reduce chlorine and chloramine, so your daily shower can feel a bit gentler on skin and hair.

How it works

Municipal water is typically treated with chlorine or chloramine to keep it safe in the pipes, but those same chemicals can strip natural oils from skin and hair with regular exposure. This filter uses a vitamin C (ascorbic acid) cartridge that chemically neutralizes chlorine and chloramine as water flows through it, converting them into harmless compounds before they reach your skin and hair. The result for many users is water that feels a little less drying, which can translate to hair that feels softer and skin that feels less tight after a shower.

Good to know

• Reduces chlorine and chloramine as water passes through the vitamin C filter cartridge, which may help ease the dryness and tightness some people feel after showering in treated tap water
• Fits standard shower arms with no tools needed, so setup takes a few minutes and works with most existing showerheads
• Does not soften hard water or remove calcium and magnesium, since it works on chemical disinfectants and some sediment, not mineral hardness
• Best suited for households on municipal chlorinated or chloraminated water, especially if hair feels dry or color fades faster than expected
• Replace the cartridge roughly every 2 to 3 months, or sooner in high-chlorine areas, to keep vitamin C levels effective
