Horse BEAUTY products

I wanted to send a shout out to all of my HT friends. I would like to post a question and find out what you all think.

If you had to pick only one "beauty" product manufactured in the past 10 years for your equine friend that you couldn't live without, what would you rank highest in your book and why? Please be specific on brand names. I'm trying to get rid of the claim to fame products that are useless in my tack trunk and get some great products that really work wonders. I'm referring to shampoos, conditioners, fly sprays, hoof conditioners, ointments, etc. It's interesting to see what other people are using because I've spent so much time investing in products that don't work. PS. Anyone have a great product for summer itch on tail?

So...let's hear it! Just ONE item that's your favorite

I'll have to go with my Vetrolin Spray. I love the scent.

Can I vote for two? Or three?

My other fav's are Refreshmint for both me and the horse or Vetrolin liniment for the same reasons.

Most everything else I just use what's cheapest at Wally World (shampoo/conditioner)

I like Avon SSS, add to my fly spray. (Endure or Absorbine -black bottle)

Eqyss makes the best detangler in my eyes and its silicone free. Pricey but you don't need alot.

Always have Excalibur, really like how it works. Keeps the boys "fresh"

My favorite detangler would also be Show Sheen. I LOVE that stuff. It works great! For an antiseptic spray (or spray for cuts etc.) I use what is called a genimisen (sp.?) spray...great for horses and humans. I use good smelling bubble bath when washing the minis, works good for me (get it from the dollar section...I am a bargain shopper).

Oh, wow, oops I named more than 1. I cant help it, if I wanted to I could go babbling on all night if I didnt make myself stop.

Laser Sheen! I love the stuff! It works to shine them, detangle them, and even keeps flies away from them for a while (I think it's because they smell so good!).

I go through phases with products. I'm a big sucker for advertising, if you have a great display with a pretty, well groomed horse. I'll probably buy your product

I used to love my vetrolin detangler and spray( I still like it). Then I took a liking to show sheen, and laser sheen. I love my face shine that you rub around the eyes and muzzle, but I don't remember what it is called.

Two must haves for me is MTG and avon SSS.

MTG is for everything from girth burn to hair growth.

And SSS is a great detangler and bug repellant.

healthy hair care conditioner consentrate is the best stuff in the world.

I also like their spray on shampoos.

Cowboy magic Krudbusters works wonders on my scratches prone horse.

flysect fly spray is my faverite as it has sunscreen and coat conditioners in it.

I have had several horses have bad reactions to endure.
