The silica derby. Both waters sell softness plus the “beauty mineral,” and both deliver it honestly: Fiji with 96 mg/L silica in a TDS of 230, Volvic with 31.7 mg/L in a much lighter 109. Fiji drinks smoother and a touch sweeter; Volvic drinks lighter and cleaner, with the lower price of the two on most shelves.
Pick Fiji if the glow is the point; it is the most silica-rich bottle we track. Pick Volvic for everyday soft water that still clears the silica bar (our line sits at 25 mg/L).
