Problem-solving skincare for sports enthusiasts

Staying active, playing sports and being physically active is healthy. But while physical activity is good for you, your health and wellbeing, it can also cause skin problems due to sweat, bacteria, friction and dead skin cells.

In this category, we have gathered products for the typical skin problems that athletes and sportsmen and women can experience during physical activity.

Are you a runner or a cyclist?

Then you may be familiar with skin problems caused by sweat and friction that can cause red, irritated and damaged skin. It most commonly occurs between the thighs, on the chest or under the breasts and arms.
It's not uncommon to get chafing between your thighs if you cycle long distances or experience chafing due to running clothes that can tighten on specific skin areas and cause friction and intertrigo.

Luckily, Rescue Cream can help you keep your skin protected to prevent sore nipples or damaged, red and burning skin between your thighs and buttocks.

Simply apply an appropriate amount of cream to the area of skin that tends to be prone to friction and irritation before you jump into your running gear or onto your bike.

The barrier cream for cycling and running forms a protective film on the skin to retain sweat and moisture, reducing the risk of burning, pain and damaged skin between thighs, buttocks, on nipples, etc.

Are you a swimmer?

If you're a swimmer or frequently swim in chlorinated water, you're probably familiar with the problem of the smell of chlorine lingering in your hair. It's a problem that many swimmers struggle with, and even if you wear a swimming cap or have your hair up in the pool, the odour can linger and be quite pervasive.

Fortunately, with a deep-cleansing anti-chlorine shampoo, you can cleanse your hair and scalp so that the chlorine odour disappears after swimming or bathing. Tea Tree shampoo also deep cleanses your scalp to prevent scalp problems such as dryness, itching or other irritation that can occur if the chlorine is not thoroughly washed out of your hair.

Use the shampoo right after swimming to thoroughly cleanse your hair and scalp. Massage thoroughly into the scalp and make sure to distribute it evenly throughout the lengths of your hair before rinsing out. It's a good idea to double-wash your hair with the shampoo to both cleanse and maximise the benefits of the active ingredients.

Do you struggle with fungus on your feet?

There's a good reason why athlete's foot is called "athlete's foot". This is because athlete's foot often occurs in people who play a lot of sports. This is due to the warm, moist environment on the feet and between the toes that occurs in closed, tight-fitting shoes. In addition, athlete's foot is also highly contagious, so it can quickly spread among athletes and athletes in the locker room.

Athlete's foot is characterised by a bothersome itching or burning sensation and a red rash on the feet and between the toes. Fortunately, you can minimise the itching, burning and redness with a cooling and soothing foot gel specifically designed for the daily care of athlete's foot. You should also visit a doctor or pharmacy to get the fungal infection treated properly so you don't pass it on to others.

Do you suffer from smelly feet?

If you play sports, run or cycle, you may experience smelly feet or shoes, which naturally occur when sweat and bacteria on your skin mix during physical activity. It's completely normal, but it can be embarrassing and annoying. Most people will shower immediately after exercise, and that's obviously the first step to dealing with sweaty feet.

Fortunately, if the problem is more pronounced, you can prevent sweaty toes with our antiperspirant foot spray, and you can care for your feet with the foot care pack for smelly feet.
In addition to its anti-perspirant effect, the foot spray also has a cooling and soothing effect on sore and tired feet - which can be much needed after a long run.

Shake the bottle gently before use and spray directly onto feet and between toes to prevent odour and dry toes. Spray your trainers too to keep them fresh and free from unpleasant sweat odour.
