Default Sensitive Skin

My 8 year old daughter loves her swimming lessons but has very sensitive skin that the chlorine plays havoc with - all over her face but especially around her eyes (body and limbs unaffected).
Does anyone know of a cream or gel we could apply pre-swim to combat this?
Failing that a really good post swim cream to soothe the skin?
Much appreciated!

There is a baby lotion that some of my swimmers use on their face, etc. I'll try to find out exactly what that is for you.

Try TRISWIM products. They make a body wash and lotion that work great for this kind of problem.

Try vaseline and make sure her diet is in check!

Hi Paul,

Sensitive skin seems to be a very common problem among swimmers. I would definetly recommend the TriSwim Body Wash. It is one product that is trusted by hundreds of swimmers. It is the only product I have found the is paraben free, removes the chlorine and the chlorine odor and smells nice! Good luck, that chlorine can really be a nuisance!
