Anti-chlorine Soap  

I swim laps at the local swimming pool regularly, and I frequently find the chlorine persists way afterwards..
I'm sure there's a market for some clever boffin who can figure out how to produce a soap (or shower gel) to deal with pool chlorine and WASH IT OFF!
Showering after a swim doesn't flush off the chlorine of the pool, and later in the day if you work up a bit of a sweat, the chlorine just wafts off you.

Years ago, during a short period of unemployment in the UK, I was swimming every day. And having the same problems with chlorine, especially in my hair. I found an anti-chlorine soap which you could also rub all over your hair and worked as a shampoo. It worked really well. It was from a Poole, UK, company called Cosmetics To Go. A quick check on the web suggests that they folded and the people involved are now called Lush http://www.lush.com.ph . They have a vast number of products and no search facility. Maybe they still have anti-chlorine soap? And if they have or had it, then maybe others do too?


A company called Summer Solutions has a bar soap for chlorine removal. Haven't tried it myself, but the reviews are pretty good.
