Does chlorine take away our tan ? Does it make our tan “fade”? Here are some tips for maintaining your tan! And finally, the perfect perfume for the summer directly from the beaches of Saint Tropez !
Why does chlorine fade?
Due to its chemical composition, chlorine dries the skin and has an exfoliating effect that tends to diminish the summer color. The chlorine contained in swimming pools, however, is dosed and diluted in such a way as not to be excessively harmful. In reality, to fade our summer tan we would have to stay in the water for days.
3 Tips to Prevent Chlorine from Fading Your Tan
- Take a cold shower after swimming : the fresh water from the shower washes away chlorine from the skin, thus blocking its drying action. Not only that: using cold water helps maintain your tan.
- Use waterproof sunscreens : we recommend Lancaster's Sun Sensitive Body Milk SPF 30 , which combines high protection with Sensiboost Complex to give sun-sensitive skin superior protection and, at the same time, a luminous and delicate tan. For the face, we recommend Sensai's Cellular Protective Face Cream SPF30 , which is also water-resistant and protects the face from UVA and UVB radiation without leaving residue, counteracting the signs of aging caused by the sun.
- Always hydrate : both by drinking and eating fruit and vegetables but also by hydrating our skin on the face and body. We recommend the moisturizer and Tan Prolonger with Orange, Grapefruit and Champagne with Anti Age action Hemp Nation by Australian Gold , which you can find in different fragrances.

A treat for your summer : After a nice dip in the pool or the sea with your golden tan, wear a few drops of Ensoleille Moi. This perfume was launched by Andrè Gas in Saint-Tropez. Floral and sunny, it is a tiare absolute with coconut and vanilla. With Ensoleille Moi you are immediately catapulted into the height of summer, perhaps lying in the sun on a magnificent beach in Saint-Tropez.
