TRIHARD Chlorine Defense Body Lotion for Swimmers, Protects and Hydrates Sensitive Skin from Pool and Ocean, Pre and Post Swim Chlorine Protection from Hard Water and Chemicals

A newbie swimmer here, enjoying the process of learning, loving the water, but not so much enjoying reeking of chlorine and feeling totally desiccated, even after two showers - one at the pool and another when I get home. I was starting to get an itchy rash on my lower legs and while I they were doing okay with my normal body lotion, I thought I'd give this Trihard stuff a go, even though I'm totally dubious about 'specially formulated' products with techie names on (often an excuse to charge an exorbitant price). Well, this is actually really lovely stuff! I only got it today and have only put it on my arms and legs so far, but they feel sooo silky smooth. I can't quite put my finger on what the fragrance is, but it's pleasant and fresh and not overpowering and, hey presto, I don't smell like a chemical plant. The only negative thing I'd say about it is that, as someone who is now going to the pool 4 times a week, I imagine I'll use this 100ml tube up pretty quickly. It's just about the size of an average tube of hand cream, when the ideal size for me would be about a litre, I reckon, LOL! It could get very pricey pretty quickly if I were to use it all over my body, and I'm not inclined to put it on pre-swim as the tube suggests, only for it to be washed down the shower drain! Perhaps I'll just use it on my extremities and use my everyday lotion on the rest of my body. Anyway. It's good moisturiser and I'm glad I decided to splash out on it, if you'll pardon the pun. Oh, and I nearly forgot to mention... the box comes with two samples - one of the hair condition and one of the body wash. Both also very nice indeed. I only used a tiny squeeze of the body wash and it created a lovely creamy lather with a bit of a eucalyptus tingle, I think, guessing by the fragrance. I'll be adding the whole range to my shopping list, I think. Quality stuff and it certainly seems to do what it says on the tin. Now, if only I could find a solution to 'goggle eyes'...

really good product and helped alit as daughter is swim teacher and in pool 5 days a week

Works really well as a pre-swim lotion and as a post-swim moisturiser. I found my skin was less affected by chlorine when I applied it before aqua aerobics; it was less dry and itchy. When I didn’t have time to apply it beforehand, using it afterwards helped to neutralise the chlorine smell and keep my skin soft and smooth. Long lasting as you don’t need to use loads. A bit expensive though.

Love the smell and makes skin very soft. I do aqua 4 times a week plus have a hot tub. My sensitive skin can get very itchy and dry being in chlorinated water so much. It’s not cheap but a tube does go a long way

It feels nice on the skin and smells pretty good. I have been using it before and after my swims 4/5 times weekly, in a chlorinated pool. I am unconvinced that it has helped my itchy skin over and above other skin moisturisers. I bought two, but as it is expensive I do not think I will continue to purchase.

I go swimming most days and found my skin slightly sensitive to the chlorine but since using this after swimming I have no more problems will definitely use this again

I've resorted to good old vaseline 😃

Good product

Ottima crema anti cloro. Senza crema il prurito dopo la piscina era un tormento. Con questa crema spalmata bene circa un’ora prima della piscina ho risolto il problema definitivamente. Non la trovo economica ma funziona bene davvero.

Love this product but it is expensive for the size you get. It feel amazing after swimming and does take away the smell so would buy this product again, but it is expensive:)

Super pour mon fils allergique au chlore

I really like this cream. I am swimming every day at the wellness center pool. As a result, I have developed very dry skin on my arms. I really like how this cream goes on and is absorbed into the skin. I have not had itching after swimming after using this product. I will be purchasing this product again.

En según qué piscinas con cloro, tras nadar la piel se me pone muy roja, como si me hubiese quemado al sol, y me pica. Con esta crema evito bastante esa reacción pero hay que enjuagarse muy bien tras nadar antes de volver a echársela. Conclusión funciona pero no es mano de santo. Me tengo que echar bastante y es bastante cara. La seguiré comprando, no me queda otra si quiero hacer natación
