The horse not me. 
Bree has the most wrinkly, sensitive skin ever between her front legs.
When I first had her she had a spot of dermatitis which cleared up with E45 cream, but the hair hasn't grown back quite as well as I'd like considering she's quite a hairy hoss. She tends to get mud and dust in all the wrinkles.
I tend to clean her gently with a rubber curry mitt and small soft face brush, but anyone got any better suggestions for looking after that area? I could use a cream on it e.g. udder cream which is recommended for Frieisian's lower legs, but I don't want to make the area too damp in the folds of skin.
She'll probably get grubbier with winter coming, but is stabled for half the day so does get dried out.

That's funny - mostly she's a great big horse bursting out of a 15.3 skin, but she just does wrinkly between the font legs. I think it may be a little bit of udder cream when the weather gets worse to protect her skin there.
