Does anyone get unbelievably, overpoweringly itchy after swimming? It is so bad some nights that I literally can't get to sleep! It is worst where my skin is getting stretched or where it is touching the couch or bed or whatever, and it is pretty much restricted to my upper body... I at least rinse off after each workout, if not take a full on shower.. Anyone else get this, or have any solutions? Help! :confused:

  • cocoa butter! that's my solution to the chlorine itchies. especially if you've got naturally dry skin. and it always gets worse as the weather gets colder. but i use a cocoa butter/shea butter body wash and then an vitamin e enriched cocoa butter lotion. they're not all that girly smelling (slightly chocolatey) and you can get the lotion in an unscented version. :)
