Cat's right.
Everyone's tap water comes either from a water processing plant, a private well or a spring of some sort. All of those sources have their own peculiar "other things" in them.
Distilled water is, ostensibly "dead" water ... because it doesn't contain the things that "living" water does ... and that's good.
I've never had a problem finding it in the grocery stores in my area ... and it's not expensive. It's usually found near the "Spring Water" bottles ...
If any of you iron [and I don't if I can help it! ] ... you should always used distilled water in your steam iron as well.
I recall, also, that on the Biochemistry of Beauty site it was recommended that if a bottle of distilled water had been open for 2 or 3 days, it was a good idea to boil it before using ... because stuff from the air can begin to "live" in the opened bottle of distilled water.

Hi skincareaddicted ,
Yes, it does. In addition to potentially having bacteria growing, there might be impurities/toxins etc in normal water. Please use distilled water and distilled water is NOT tap water boiled (amongst other things contains chloride). You can buy distilled water at the gas station or pharmacies like Walgreens.
