Avon skin so soft - fly spray

I mix 1/3 skin so soft, 1/3 cider vinegar, drop of baby shampoo, other oils if I feel like it and then dilute up to 500ml.

I also use the bath oil on feathers; use it like pig oil, rub in in the evening good for two weeks :)
 
Ok in confused, I've bought the bottles of skin so soft on eBay, does this need waterin down and mixing or not? Getting confuse coz some have said they use it neat and others have said they mix with cold tea etc!
 
If anyone has a contact in the US, Skin-so-Soft is so much cheaper and the bottles are much larger. A 24oz bottle of the original bath oil is approximately $12.50. With the rate of exchange, that comes to about £8.00. There are great bargains on US ebay for SSS. If you've got someone visiting from the US, say for the Olympics or Burghley, you could bid on the oil, have it sent to that person, and have him bring it to you. Just make sure the bottle(s) is well-taped and sealed in double bags and NOT carried in hand luggage. There are even better Buy It Now prices, I believe.

Spigs, add a dash of washingup liquid too to dispense the oils :)

Ah I wondered why others had said washing up liquid - all makes sense now! I like your signature line! We have a 'delicate' nightmare quality hooved TB - daughters choice - I wanted a cob!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:
 
Thanks for the heads up and the discount code - 10 bottles for £21.01, including postage, bargain :D

I use the dry oil and it is works really well on the horses and dogs - oh, and us too! Skinny Minnie isn't keen as she doesn't like sprays, but mini Shetland stallion practically spreads his legs as he sees you coming towards it with the bottle in hand, he is plagued by flies on his bits, bless him, but it really does work.
 
Whispers... I burnt my boys crest the other year using the dry oil neat, felt terrible as Id recomended it to another livery and her boy burnt too :eek:. I did use it liberally though as he was rubbing with the midges and it did work to stop the itch.
 
I think this does help keep the midges out of my boy's tail- makes him smell lovely too - I do use a fly spray with deet in it too though.

Non horsey but great tip someone told me and I tried it and it works - skin so soft dry oil spray is amazing for cleaner the grease spatter from around your cooker hood, splash backs etc. Very little elbow grease required:)
 
Regarding people saying that it doesnt work, avon have introduced a new recipe to the new bottles { the ones priced at £1.99} people have said that it doesnt work as good, mine havent arrived yet for me to try.
