Skin Tan Removal Due To Swimming

The tanning may be controlled by the following ways:

1. If you are going swimming, make sure you wear a water-resistant sunscreen. The combination of chlorine and water is murder for your skin! Wear the highest SPF sunscreen with any of these ingredients - mexoryl, avobenzone, zinc oxide or titanium oxide. Apply every 1 and a half hours. Sunscreen will protect your skin from further darkening, but will not lighten skin.

2)Use After Sun Lotion After swimming.

3) Use skin lighteners after you've stopped swimming. The use of skin lightening products while swimming is not recommended because of too much direct sun exposure, which can damage the new exfoliated lightened skin and cause it to become darker because of sun sensitivity. Although you can protect skin with a sunscreen while in the skin lightening regimen, negligence is always a cause for problems. So soon as you finish your swimming lessons, the accumulated tanning (which can take months to get rid of) can be lightened through the use of products for that purpose, and get skin back to its original color in no time.
