What does swimming pool chlorine do to the skin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Harsh on your skin: Chlorine damages the oil and mineral balance of skin cells, destroying the fluid balance, resulting in dried out, dead cells.This in turn leads to dry, peeling skin, which makes the surface of the skin appear shiny.Make sure to apply moisturizer after being in a chlorine pool.
