At my old pool, which was full of chemicals, I'd rinse off afterwards then spray down with sesame oil before toweling off. It helped, especially in hard to reach areas like my back.

Curel works wonders for me and I can even use it on my face. After moisturizing try wearing a t-shirt or something to help hold the moisture in. After a couple of applications the issue should subside. If not, refer to a dermatologist because I am not one and I certainly didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night (I know the commercial is getting old now but...).

Try a fragrance free lotion for sensitive skin. I swear by Cetaphil lotion, and the cream works great on the driest spots (feet, knees, and elbows).

The chlorine is most likely causing your skin to dry out more than normal. I find that certain brands of lotions are worse than others when it comes to stinging and burning. I prefer Jergen's line of moisturizers because I don't get the after-burn and it doesn't feel heavy after slathering it all over myself. I will ONLY use Neutragena face lotion on my face, as my face is extra sensitive. I also will only use Ivory soap, after having enough bad reactions growing up with deodorant soaps.
