The horse can also be subject to sunburn! Especially on the parts of the body where the skin is very thin like the noses....The horses with a light dress and the pink skin will be even more sensitive. In this case it is necessary to provide sun protection in order to avoid burns.

Coco Protect, a sunscreen based on very protective coconut oil :

The exclusive formula of this treatment combines the protective properties of several plant first materials recognized for their ability to filter UV and in particular:

• Coconut oil: The benefits of coconut oil are numerous, thanks to an exceptionally rich composition of fatty acids, vitamins and phytosterols. The interest of monounsaturated fatty acids (omegas 3, omega 6 and omega 9 – it contains between 5% and 8% oleic acids) are their soothing properties that feed, moisturize and relax the skin. Coconut oil is also a source of vitamins, including Vitamin E known for its antioxidant and protective properties and Vitamin A which promotes hydration of the epidermis.
• Shea beure is naturally rich in active ingredients (vitamin A and E, phytosterols, latex...) which naturally gives it protective and antioxidant virtues for the epidermis. Shea butter nourishes the skin deeply and soothes irritations due to friction.
• Bee wax: the properties of bee wax for the skin are multiple. First of all, it protects from dehydration and softens the epidermis. It also has interesting sanitizing virtues.
• Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide: very popular in sunscreens, their interest is to divert the sun's rays. They offer instant protection against sunburn.
