You spend hours in the pool - your skin and health shouldn't suffer for it
Cracked skin. Infections. Time off work. That’s the cost of working without good skin protection.
Working in water every day takes its toll
- Painful, cracked skin - not just dry but open to infection
- Chlorine smell that lingers
- No time to moisturise between classes
This isn't about moisturiser
It’s about long-term health. Damaged skin leads to infection, irritation and (unpaid) time off. We made something that helps you stay protected, shift after shift.

“I used to push through the stinging. Now I finish the week without cracked skin. I wish I’d found it sooner.”
– Emily, Swim Teacher, Vic
This cream has provided a perfect barrier in the pool, which I’m in every day. I have a sensitive skin condition that could’ve pretty much put an end to any career as a swim teacher. To be honest if I don’t use this cream (and I did try without to see any differences) I find my skin is red and itchy after a shift.
– Bron, Swim Teacher, Qld
Stay in the water. Stay in control.
Don’t let your skin decide you need to stop teaching!
