Skincare

Hello,

I love a good skincare regimen - and would appreciate specific product recommendations to combat the impact of pool chemicals. Any and all recommendations welcome! Forty+ years of age, redhead, increasingly have combination skin as a result of three 90-minute sessions a week since January. Sincere thanks!

  • Regularly apply a healthy shea butter that has no nasty ingredients to hold in moisture& seal your skin from the pool water.  You can buy a long band online that you smear the butter on one side.  It has handles at each end so you can rub it into every bit of your back skin.  Shower rinse very thoroughly with plain water after leaving the pool. Keep the temperature just lukewarm.  Hot water will dissolve your skin oils.  Only use soap where hair grows (pits, pubes, head).  The trick is to avoid losing the skin's natural hydration.
