WHY IS SILICONE FREE SO IMPORTANT?
Silicones are hydrophobic which means they repel water. When it does this in hair, the very precious moisture content of just 3% is reduced and the protein bonds that make up 97% of hair become less stable and more liable to break. In a nutshell, those old-school mane, tail and coat sprays that we have all used since pony camp simply coat your horse in silicones which yes, does make them look shiny, and yes, it does detangle their hair BUT this is short-lived and it’s actually damaging your horse’s mane, tail & coat!! Dry, fragile and weak hair leads to breakages, rubs, bald patches, and even the loss of manes & tails completely! Just say NO ... and get NEIGHKED!
HOW LONG WILL THIS BOTTLE LAST ME?
Obviously, it depends on usage, as we know it can be used for so many different equine beauty tasks. However, on average if we allocate one bottle per horse using it on its mane and tail twice per week and then as a hot cloth oil 4-5 times per week, we would expect the bottle to last approximately 8 weeks.
WILL IT PREVENT MY HORSE FROM GETTING RUG RUBS ON HIS/HER MANE AND TAIL?
YES! Healthy, strong hair does not break and rub away! We have created this problem for our horses, not by choosing to put rugs on them, but by choosing to use harsh, drying products on them such as silicone sprays. These have made their hair strands so brittle and weak that unfortunately, rug rubs are so common. But there’s no need to fear as this damage can be reversed.
WILL BEAUTIFY OIL HELP MY HORSE TO RE-GROW HIS MANE AND TAIL?
YES. BEAUTIFY OIL contains very carefully selected oils to feed the hair follicles and encourage maximum hair growth.
MY HORSE HAS SENSITIVE SKIN WHICH LEADS TO BALD PATCHES FROM MY BOOTS AND TACK. WILL THIS HELP HIM?
YES. First of all, BEAUTIFY OIL is dermatology tested so we know it won’t irritate his sensitive skin. It will help to hydrate the skin and coat which will instantly soothe the skin and start the natural healing process. Hydrated, healthy skin is much less reactive. We’d recommend that you use BEAUTIFY OIL as your daily hot cloth, STAY PERFECT Body Spray daily and also have COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant on hand for if his skin ever starts to crack.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SILKIFY & BEAUTIFY?
They are very similar with a couple of ingredient tweaks to ensure PH balance perfection for both equines and canines.
A dog’s PH balance is around 6, whilst a horse’s is around 7.
SILKIFY & BEAUTIFY individually respect these.
