[Product question] Has anyone tried SwimSpray as a vitamin C serum?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I was Googling chlorine sensitivity because I pretty much can't go swimming any more and I suspect my skin's dryness is related to my city's highly chlorinated water. I found a product called SwimSpray (I won't link in case this get spam filtered, but you can Google) that is $12 US for a 6 oz aerosol can of what is apparently "just vitamin C" used as a chlorine-neutralizing treatment for skin and hair.The website says that "SwimSpray is packaged in an air-free environment, which enhances its shelf-life and stability. SwimSpray is very concentrated and is effective for at least two years without any decrease in performance." (It is an aerosol can so it wouldn't get exposed to air when you use it.) And "It may turn brown or yellow over time. Here, we make sure to include plenty of vitamin C, so that even the small amount of degradation that causes the amber/brown color does not lessen SwimSpray's effectiveness." There's no % active ingredient info, and I'm skeptical of the shelf life claims. Maybe emailing the company would help here.My questions are:Does anyone know if vitamin C actually has this chlorine neutralizing effect?Is this more cost effective than a vitamin C serum? It seems that way.If so, would it be worth it to use this instead of a vitamin C serum (assuming the alternative is not using vit C at all)?Do you believe what it says about shelf life?
