Strong Hooves with Glitter - Hoof Oil with Glitter can 450ml
Strong Hooves with Glitter is a vegan hoof oil that combines care with a visual effect. A base of four natural plant oils nourishes and strengthens the hooves, while silver glitter gives them an elegant shine. The product comes in a tin with a brush for precise application.
Glitter hoof oil: care and visual effect in one
Strong Hooves with Glitter is not just a cosmetic for shows. The base is the same proven blend of four natural plant oils as in the classic Strong Hooves, which nourishes, conditions and strengthens the hoof horn. Silver glitter gives the hoof a striking shine that looks its best at competitions, breed shows and photo shoots. Regular use of the glitter oil also reduces how much mud sticks to the hooves.
How to use glitter hoof oil before a competition
Clean and dry the horse's hooves thoroughly. The surface may stay slightly damp during application. Using the brush supplied with the tin, apply the oil evenly over the whole hoof wall, from the coronet band down to the edge of the sole. For a more intense glitter effect, apply two thin coats, letting the first one soak in a little. The oil is best applied 15-30 minutes before going into the dressage arena or the showjumping ring, so that it has time to settle on the surface of the hoof. Store the product in a tack box or grooming box, away from sunlight.
Everyday hoof care with glitter oil
Although glitter oil is mainly associated with special occasions, there is nothing to stop you using it every day. The oil base is the same as in the classic Strong Hooves. Four natural plant oils nourish the hoof horn. For the best results, use the oil twice a week. The glitter wears off naturally after a few hours, leaves no lasting traces and has no adverse effect on the structure of the hoof horn.
Tin with a brush: precise application of oil to the hooves
The tin format with its built-in brush allows accurate, controlled application of the oil. You can cover the whole hoof wall precisely while avoiding the sole, or deliberately pick out just the front of the hoof. The brush is also handy around the coronet band, where the oil needs to be worked in thoroughly to nourish the growth zone better.
Frequently asked questions
Is the glitter hoof oil also available as a spray?
The glitter version in a tin is designed for precise application with a brush. If you prefer a glitter spray, the Doctor Horse range includes Strong Hooves Glitter spray in 500 ml and 100 ml, with the same formula.
Is the glitter in the oil bad for the horse's hoof?
No, the silver glitter is cosmetic and has no adverse effect on the structure of the hoof horn. It wears off naturally within a few hours and needs no special removal.
Does the glitter oil nourish the hooves as well as the version without glitter?
Yes. The four natural plant oils and the fragrance oil are the same in both versions. The glitter is a decorative addition that does not affect how the oil cares for the hoof.
