Chlorine and Skin Problems

I usually have pretty good skin, but lately it's been really red (mostly in my cheeks) and dry. I'm in the water a lot for swimming and my job. I use a facial lotion or Jergens everyday after I get out of the water, but it's still red and kinda dry. Any suggestions of other lotions to try or ideas how to get the reddness to go away? I have kind of sensitive skin also, so fragrence free would be nice. :)

    Aside from the skin moisturizers...Staying hydrated is really important too. Drinking two liters of water a day is very easy...especially if you remember to carry a bottle around with you. Also...depending on where you live during the winter months...indoor heating (especially the forced hot air variety) will literally suck the moisture out of your skin on top of what the pool already took out. Drink up.
