Hi there, and welcome to SwimmersBlockBar—a skincare line born from love, necessity, and a splash of inspiration.
As a parent of a passionate young swimmer, I’ve spent countless hours by the poolside—cheering, timing, supporting, and observing. While I loved seeing the strength and discipline swimming nurtures in children, I also started noticing something that wasn’t being talked about enough: what chlorine, saltwater, and long hours in the pool were doing to my child’s skin.
Redness. Dryness. Itchiness. Sensitive patches. Over time, I realized that the water that helps them thrive can also harm the very skin that protects them.
That’s when SwimmersBlockBar was born.
This isn’t just another skincare brand. It’s a mission to protect and nourish the skin of swimmers—especially kids—with ingredients that are as gentle as they are effective. Our formulas are designed to block out the harsh effects of pool chemicals and environmental stressors, while giving young skin the hydration, soothing, and nourishment it truly needs to recover and thrive.
Why swimmer skin care matters:
Swimmers spend hours submerged in chlorinated or salty water. While it builds endurance and confidence, it can also strip the skin of its natural oils, leading to:
• Dry, irritated skin
• Increased sensitivity and breakouts
• Chlorine rashes and eczema flare-ups
• Premature skin aging due chemical exposure
Children’s skin is thinner and more delicate than adults’. This means they’re more vulnerable to these effects. If we care so much about the right swimsuit or goggles, why not the right barrier for their skin?
At SwimmersBlockBar, we believe skincare should be simple, safe, and smart. That’s why our products are made with clean ingredients, free from parabens, harsh chemicals, and artificial fragrances—so your swimmer can dive in and out of the water with confidence and comfort.
This blog will be your go-to space for skincare tips, swimmer wellness, product updates, and stories from our growing community. Whether you’re a swim parent, coach, or a swimmer yourself, we’re here to protect what protects you: your skin.
Let’s raise the bar—for swimmer skin everywhere.
With care,
Evelien Zonneveld
