I’d spent two years developing a Shower Filter to finally tackle the damage the water was doing to my skin.

The shower was the one place we hadn’t filtered.

Chlorine is added to UK tap water to kill bacteria on its way to your home. But it does not disappear when the water reaches your shower.

Turn on the hot water and it runs over your face, scalp, body and hair for minutes at a time. Repeated exposure to chlorine and other contaminates strips away natural oils. Skin can feel tight, dry or irritated after showering. Hair can feel rougher, duller and harder to manage. Heavy metals and microplastics add more fuel to the fire.

Like most people, I tried to fix the problem after the showerwith expensive moisturisers for my skin, masks and conditioners for my hair, and more products every time something felt dry or irritated. But the highest-leverage thing I could do was not add another product. It was filter the water before it reached me.

I started as the customer. The DMs became a product brief.

After Water2 saw me posting how much I loved their under-sink filters, we started talking about the water in my shower. The DMs became emails, and the emails became a clear product brief: make the best shower filter on the market. Shower filters already existed, so we did not need to invent the category. We needed to fix the compromises I kept finding in it. Some products filtered the water but weakened the pressure. Others looked clinical or bulky. Some made replacing the filter feel like another chore. I wanted one product that got the filtration, pressure, design and everyday experience right at the same time.

Water2skin was not a product we found and put my name on.We spent more than two years building it.

We fixed the water without sacrificing the shower

Water2skin places the filtration inside the showerhead. Water passes through a replaceable cartridge designed to reduce chlorine and heavy metals before it reaches your skin and hair.

KDF-55 and calcium sulphite were selected for hot, fast-flowing shower water. The system works in the background while you shower as normal. The result is third-party tested filtration, powerful pressure and a showerhead designed to belong in your bathroom.

Water2skin versus the products dealing with the aftermath

Water2skin changes the water before it reaches you. An ordinary showerhead and the products used afterwards do not.

The installation is deliberately uneventful

For compatible fittings, twist off your existing showerhead and twist on Water2skin. Run the water for two minutes to flush the new cartridge, then shower as normal.

Replace the filter every 90 days. Open the housing, remove the used cartridge and fit the new one. No plumber is required for a standard compatible installation.

Try it for 100 days and save 50% for a limited time.

The exclusive launch offer brings the Water2skin Handheld Filter down from £150 to £75. Your first replacement refill is included, along with free shipping. Try it in your own shower for 100 days. If it isn’t right for you, you’re covered by the money-back guarantee.

I wanted to be responsible for the finished product, not simply appear next to it. Together with Water2 we poured all our energy into building the best water filter o the market, and I hope you love it just as much as we do.
