Yes, lubrication is still essential. While the wet environment might aid sliding, silicone lube is mandatory for the interior when putting it on dry. For quick dressing at the poolside, some wearers may apply a thin layer of baby oil/lotion to the body (not the latex itself, as oils degrade it) or use water with a little diluted silicone lube to assist the initial slip-on.
Chlorine, UV exposure, and excessive heat. Chlorine (present in most pools) significantly accelerates latex degradation, making the material brittle. Direct sunlight (UV) causes rapid chemical breakdown and irreversible discoloration (especially to lighter colors). Minimize time in chlorinated water and never dry latex swimwear in the sun.
Immediately. The moment you exit the pool, you must thoroughly rinse the item with clean, cool, running water to remove as much chlorine as possible. Hand wash with a mild latex cleanser immediately upon returning home, paying special attention to rinsing the interior completely to remove all chemical residue.
Store 100% dry, flat, and opaque. Ensure the item is completely dry (inside and out), polished or powdered, and free of any moisture or chemical residue. Store it flat or gently rolled inside an opaque storage bag or box to protect it from light and heat. Never fold it sharply.
