How To Use DermaSwim
We'll give you the basic instructions here, and then each of you will discover while using DermaSwim what method works best for you.
How DermaSwim Works
DermaSwim creates a protective barrier between your skin and harsh pool chemicals.
How Much DermaSwim Should I Use?
This will depend on your personal experience, but a little goes a long way.
Start with a small amount (about a teaspoon for an arm or leg) and spread it thinly across the skin. Our 8 oz tubes are designed to provide multiple applications, giving you long-lasting protection for many swim sessions. You'll quickly discover the perfect amount that works for you.
What About the "Please Shower Before Entering Pool" Rule?
Most pools today want swimmers to shower off before entering the pool. There are two simple options:
Option 1: Apply Then Shower
Apply DermaSwim, then get in the shower and rinse off lightly, without using soap. The lotion won't come off, and you'll be protected, showered, and ready to swim.
Option 2: Shower Then Apply
Take a shower first, dry off, and then apply your pre-swimming lotion and head for the pool. This will work just as well.
After Your Swim
DermaSwim does NOT have to be washed off after swimming.
We have formulated this lotion to soak in naturally to your skin, leaving your skin soft and moisturized, instead of the old itchy, scratchy feeling without DermaSwim!
In fact, DermaSwim has changed the routine of swimming for many of our swimmers. Instead of swimming and then using the shower to try desperately to remove the chlorine, swimmers using this pre-swimming lotion use the shower just to rinse off the chlorinated surface water, without even using soap!
Putting On DermaSwim
DermaSwim should be applied to skin before swimming. Pay special attention to areas that are especially sensitive to chlorine, like dry patches and pool rash.
- DermaSwim can be applied all over the body. DO NOT apply to the bottoms of feet as this creates a dangerous slipping hazard, and keep out of the eyes.
- Many swimmers who use DermaSwim apply it all over their bodies, and the only post-swim itchy spots are the ones they missed!
- DermaSwim may be applied to the face - do not get the lotion inside the area that your goggles will cover.
- We don't recommend putting DermaSwim in your hair, simply because it's not a hair care product.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS:
- DO NOT apply to the bottoms of feet - this can create a dangerous slipping hazard.
- NEVER carry children after application, as this creates a serious slipping risk.
- Keep product away from eyes. If eye contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- DermaSwim is for external use only. Keep out of reach of children under 3 years.
- Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
"Since I started using DermaSwim before practice, my chlorine rash has completely disappeared. No more itching, no more red patches - just comfortable swimming. It's been a complete game-changer for me as a competitive swimmer."
