SWIM OIL + SWIM BALM
The ingredients in SWIM OIL contain skin healing & regenerating properties. They are beneficial and extremely effective in the treatment of altered skin barriers. Their anti-inflammatory qualities assist with reducing itchy, dry and irritated skin.
When used on your hair before swimming, they exert conditioning properties that protect and prevent hair from damage as it absorbs quickly and penetrates into the hair follicles helping to hydrate and nourish the hair from the roots, keeping it soft, shiny and hydrated.
Dry oil refers to the rate at which oil absorbs into the skin, not the consistency of the oil itself. Dry oils offer the same moisturising benefits as wet oils, however they absorb into your skin within seconds of the application, without leaving a sticky residue on your skin or hair.
SWIM WASH
An after swim spray, specifically formulated to neutralise the chlorine on your swimwear & eliminate the damaging effects of chlorine & salt water.
It is the ideal solution to extend the life of your swim wear by maintaining the elasticity and vibrancy of the fabric.
Chlorine that is not washed away can eat away at your bathers, degrading the fabric, water alone will not remove chlorine or salt water. By removing the chlorine from your swimwear with SWIM WASH, you can gently eliminate the oils and chemicals before they can inflict damage on the gentle fibres of your bathing suit.
Absolutely not! You may think
that the more time spent in any cleaning solution will help get your swimwear even cleaner, right?
Unfortunately, that’s not how it works. Washing your swimwear in the washing machine can loosen the fibres of your swimwear.
How you wash your swimwear is incredibly important to preserve its
colour, shape, and lifetime.
