Hi - I'm new to swimming. Can anyone recommend a post swim skin lotion and / or shower gel brand that both helps remove chlorine and helps with dry skin?
Also - I saw someone using a pre-swim lotion that is supposed to help fend off the chlorine, but I wasn't quick enough to ask him what it was. General google searches haven't yielded any results. Anyone know what this is and where to get it?
Thanks very much.

Go for a run or just lick your skin. I don't notice that I smell like chlorine until I sweat. If you are swimming 6-7 days a week, I hate to break this to you, but you smell like chlorine.
Thanks for the attitude. I smell like chlorine until I take a shower, but I'm nice and pretty after. My girlfriend has a sensitive nose, and she's never said anything. Either she's mysteriously being nice about it--and I don't know why she'd refrain from telling me I smell like chlorine, but not when my breath makes her want to vomit after I eat a banana--or she doesn't smell it, along with everyone else I'm around.
