Apply to damp hair — no rinsing needed. Detangles instantly, adds shine, provides UV protection and prevents the brittleness that daily swimming causes. Non-greasy. All hair types.
Nourishing Body Lotion — 32 fl oz
Fast-absorbing and silky — replenishes moisture stripped by salt, chlorine and sun exposure. Green Tea & Wakame antioxidant blend. No greasy residue. The final step in the post-swim routine.

Chlorine is the biggest enemy
of colour-treated hair.
A single swim in a chlorinated pool can lift colour pigment and dry out the hair cuticle. Salt and UV compound the fade every time you go outside. Most shampoos then strip what little colour remains. The Color Protect bar is specifically formulated to cleanse without lifting colour — and it biodegrades in freshwater and saltwater so what goes down the drain does not reach the reef.
Chlorine lifts colour pigment on every swim
When chlorine contacts colour-treated hair it oxidises the pigment molecules, accelerating fade. Most shampoos use sulfates that further open the hair cuticle and accelerate colour loss. The Color Protect bar uses gentle, colour-safe actives that clean without lifting the cuticle or stripping pigment.
UV fade is cumulative — every outdoor swim adds up
The Color Protect bar is fragrance-free and formulated for sensitive skin — deep cleansing with no harsh surfactants. Three bars in the bundle means your shampoo supply matches your conditioner and lotion, so you reorder everything together.
What you rinse off reaches the reef too
The Color Protect bar biodegrades in freshwater and saltwater within 30 days — tested in real-world conditions, not just sewage treatment plants. Every 32 fl oz bottle is made from 97% post-consumer recycled ocean-bound plastic.
Four botanicals.
One antioxidant core.
Every Stream2Sea hair and body formula is built around the same four-ingredient antioxidant blend — chosen to protect, nourish and restore hair and skin that takes a daily beating from sun, salt and chlorine.
Biodegradability — tested where it actually matters
Most biodegradability testing happens in sewage treatment plants under controlled lab conditions. Stream2Sea tests in both freshwater and saltwater environments — because that is where these products actually end up when swimmers shower at dive sites, on boat decks and at outdoor rinse stations. The formula breaks down completely within 30 days in real-world water conditions.
Wash. Condition. Nourish.
A complete post-swim or post-dive routine in three products — takes under five minutes.
Rinse first
Rinse hair and skin with fresh water to remove the bulk of salt or chlorine before washing.
Before washingBar shampoo and body wash
Lather one of the Color Protect bars and massage through hair and over the body. The colour-safe actives cleanse without lifting the cuticle. Rinse well.
Color Protect BarLeave-in conditioner
On damp hair, apply Leave-In Conditioner and finger comb through evenly. Do not rinse — leave it in and style as normal.
Leave-In ConditionerBody lotion
Apply Nourishing Body Lotion to damp skin while pores are still open. Fast-absorbing — no greasy finish, no residue.
Body Lotion“I was watching people wash their hair on the deck of a liveaboard — fragrant suds streaming directly into the water over a pristine coral reef. That image is why Stream2Sea exists. Not just the sunscreen slick coming off the snorkelers below. The shampoo. The body wash. The lotion. Everything we put on our bodies eventually reaches the water. Every formula I make has to be able to answer for that.”
What swimmers and divers are saying
“I have sensitive skin and cannot use scented products. The Color Protect bar is the only shampoo bar I have found that does not irritate my scalp. Clean rinse, no residue, and it lathers better than I expected.”
“I swim in the ocean every day and Stream2Sea Leave-In Conditioner is my go-to. It brings my salty hair back to life — instantly detangles, adds shine, and leaves my hair soft, healthy and easy to style.”
“The body lotion is incredible — fast-absorbing, not sticky, smells amazing. I use it every single day after my swim. Knowing it will not harm the reef I train in makes it easy to keep buying.”
“I train in chlorinated water six days a week and my hair was suffering. The Color Protect bar plus the leave-in conditioner has made a real difference. Hair feels stronger, looks better, and I have stopped worrying about what goes down the rinse station drain.”

What swimmers ask us most
How does the Color Protect bar differ from the other shampoo bars?
The Color Protect bar is completely fragrance-free — no essential oils, no botanical fragrance. It is specifically formulated for sensitive skin, people with fragrance sensitivities, or anyone who prefers an unscented wash. The Color Protect bar includes ingredients for strengthening chlorine-exposed hair, and the Color Protect bar is formulated to preserve colour-treated hair. All three use the same biodegradable base.
How quickly does the Color Protect bar start working?
Yes. The Color Protect bar is a mild, balanced formula that works for straight, wavy and curly hair. For fine hair, use a small amount and focus on the scalp. For thicker or coarser hair, allow the lather to work through to the ends. Pair with the Leave-In Conditioner for best results, especially if your hair is regularly exposed to salt or chlorine.
Is the Color Protect bar suitable for colour-treated hair?
Yes, though if your primary concern is colour preservation the Color Protect bar is specifically formulated for that. The Color Protect bar is colour-safe and will not strip colour faster than any other quality shampoo, but its formulation is optimised for strength and resilience rather than colour longevity specifically.
Will the Leave-In Conditioner weigh down fine hair?
No — it is specifically formulated to be non-greasy and lightweight. Apply to damp hair only using a small amount. Multiple reviewers with fine hair note that it does not flatten their hair. A small amount is enough for most hair lengths.
Is the 32 fl oz conditioner and lotion the same formula as the standard sizes?
Yes — exactly the same formula, same concentration, same biodegradable standard. The 32 fl oz is purely a value size for regular users. All bottles are made from 97% post-consumer recycled content including ocean-bound plastic.
What does Reef-Safer mean on the shampoo bar?
“Reef-safe” is an unregulated marketing term — any brand can use it with no testing required. Stream2Sea uses Reef-Safer™ because every ingredient is evaluated against published aquatic toxicity data. The bar formula biodegrades in freshwater and saltwater within 30 days — tested in real-world conditions, not just sewage treatment plants. That is a meaningfully higher standard.
Your daily routine.
Without the daily guilt.
Three Color Protect Shampoo Bars, Leave-In Conditioner and Nourishing Body Lotion — the complete Reef-Safer™ post-swim routine. Three bars so your shampoo lasts as long as your conditioner and lotion.
