Pool chlorine?

Question

what does chlorine do to your skin? is it possible that it could clear up back acne?

Answer 1

The pool water, chlorinated or with other sanitizers, will have a drying effect on the skin as well as a slight disinfectant effect.  However, sunlight also has a slight disinfectant effect (and drying, too), so that the two combined might have a possibly beneficial effect on acne.  Plus stimulating your immune system and generally making yourself more healthy with regular excercise can also contribute.
