I have been spraying Skin So Soft on my mare's legs and tummy over the last
couple of weeks. I have found no change in the amount of dirt that
accumulates... In fact, I think it has improved her skin and coat texture.

My mare had been eating toxic levels of Fiddleneck weed, culminating in her
becoming severely ill on Easter Sunday. She had Juandice, Acute hepatitis and
severe photosensitivity on her 3 white socks and white nose. All of the skin
sloughed off of her nose and socks. The new skin and hair is growing back
nicely and the Skin So Soft is mild on that tender skin.

I put about 1 inch in the bottom of a 1 quart spray and top it off with warm
water. I coat it on her pretty thick to keep the flys off...

and Jasper, my gelding that won't touch Fiddleneck or Star Thistle...thank
goodness...
