IS SWIMMING AFFECTING YOUR SKIN'S HEALTH?
But Why?!
The Science Behind:
But Why?!
The Science Behind:
Stripping Away Natural Oils
Chlorine is commonly used in pools to kill bacteria and prevent the spread of diseases. However, chlorine is also a harsh chemical that can strip away the natural oils (sebum) that protect and moisturize the skin.
This disruption of the skin's lipid barrier leads to increased dryness, flakiness, and sometimes even cracking, that can make the skin more vulnerable to irritation and infections.
pH Imbalance
The skin's natural pH is about 4.5 to 5.5, which is slightly acidic. Chlorine and other chemicals can disrupt this balance, leading to a more alkaline skin surface, which further irritates the skin and disrupts its natural barrier function.
Sensitive Reactions
Chlorine and sun can irritate the skin, especially sensitive areas like under the eyes.
Sun Exposure
Swimming outdoors increases sun exposure, which can accelerate skin aging and damage
