For any avid swimmers out there, I'm sure they experience
what I do. It's called chlorine burn, or thats what I call it. I
push 20 hours a week in a pool, and even a lengthy shower
doesn't get all the chlorine off me. So a few hours later,
when I'm laying in bed my skin starts to burn and
get itchy
and it's really really annoying. The only cure I have found is
about 3 showers in a row, which is pretty wasteful.....on to
the idea:
Swimmers soap: specially formulated to get the chlorine off
my skin, so I can get some sleep. I haven't really thought too
deep as to the actual chemistry of the soap, but I'm sure
there's got to be something Soap+

Try a soap made on coconut oil. Coconut soap will lather in salt water, as the stearate molecule is different to normal soap. It should take care of the chlorine ions, as it does in seawater. |

Hmmm, sounds test worthy, but I dunno what I will look
like lathering up with coconut oil after practice.... |
