anyone got any tips onstopping horses muzzles getting sunburn. been putting loads of factor 50 on skye and she is still getting burnt stupid
[/ QUOTE ]
I use a childrens high factor suncream - they are made to 'stick' better and are more waterproof than the ones for adults. If you can put it on inside and leave her in for 20 - 30 mins before going out as it makes the suncream work better as it activates when warmed by the skin and is absorbed a bit (same on humans!!)
To help with the sunburn that is already there put on 100% aloe vera gel and/or give her some aloe vera juice in a handful of food as it will help heal and soothe. Get the gel from a health food shop as it won't have any colours or additives etc in it.
thanks slinkyunicorn will giuve it a try although shes not the most helpful. scotmare she is a big girl and thank she is going to be huge her mum is only 16h
