Read our article on Why you need a pre-swim lotion?
To protect your skin from adverse effects of chemically-treated pools, apply a perfect swim body lotion. It will help to create a protective barrier around the skin that neutralises chlorine absorption in the skin. Before going to the swimming pool, always apply some essential oil like olive oil, coconut oil, or baby oil.
Don’t forget to shower before the swim. Always apply sunscreen before entering a pool
Professional swimmers spend 4 to 6 hours in chlorinated pools for practice. If you are a professional swimmer or swim a lot, pat your skin dry with a soft towel, but leave it ever so slightly damp. Do not forget to apply a barrier cream, salve or oil all over your body. Elemnt Pre Swim lotion creates a thin invisible barrier film on your skin that reduces chlorine absorption.
Apart from using a body lotion, do not forget to wear a swimming cap and goggles. Shower thoroughly after swimming as well!
Applying petroleum jelly, such as Vaseline, to areas that are irritated before going into a pool soothes the skin. This provides a protective barrier between your skin and the water. It will also work with a thin layer of natural oil (i.e. avocado, almond, jojoba, argan, or coconut oil).
Elemnt Pre Swim lotion contains almond, coconut and olive oil in copious quantities that create a natural barrier for your skin
Dr. Munir, Chief Product Advisor at Elemnt Sports Science, says, “Chlorine water damages the skin barrier and results in inflammation. It can make the skin darker too.
