Drinking water lubricates the mucus membranes in your mouth and throat, which will continue to keep your mouth moist with saliva long after that first sip. 2. Your Skin is Dry Your skin is your body’s largest organ, so of course it needs to stay hydrated . In fact, dry skin is one of the earliest signs of full-on dehydration, which can lead to much larger problems.
