I’ve seen a lot of videos recently where people pour the shampoo product straight onto the coat and use wayyyyy too much!
It’s a bit like the skincare promoters you see where people pour excessive amounts of serums and creams on their faces, it’s simply a waste of product and your money. Which I get it from the way the commercialisation advertising of products are presented to us is all to make us consume, consume, consume so that we run out and rebuy.
- 𝗕𝘂𝘁 with our products and the way we formulate them it’s just not necessary.
- We always say 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲.
A couple of capfuls in a bucket of water is sufficient, for tough stains or really built up greasy areas such as tops of tails and feathers, tough stains and treating areas that are bacterial infections such as rain scald, using a small amount of shampoo direct onto that area is appropriate but don’t go crazy 🤪
𝗔𝗹𝘃𝗮𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗼 is the 𝙢𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧 when it comes to 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙙𝙞𝙧𝙩. Soothes and cools the skin whilst ensuring that you don’t develop the dreaded ‘scurf’. Emitting a lovely tea tree oil aroma and providing antibacterial properties and acts as a natural deterrent to flies, leaving the coat smooth and beautifully clean. 𝙥𝙃 𝙣𝙚𝙪𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙩𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣 ensuring it’s kind but effective.
𝗔𝗹𝘃𝗮𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗺 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗼 moisturises hair from root to tip and maintains the health of the skin. Neem oil can sooth dryness, repair damage and remove bacteria.Helping stop the horse from feeling irritated and itchy through the coat change and enhancing their natural glow keeping it in top condition.Neem actively cleanses and strengthens hair follicles. Our neem shampoo is also very effective for grey horse's or horses with white markings, by causing the white hair to lift and brighten.

I am Rhiannon and Independent Distributor for the AlvaHorse & AlvaDog Aromatherapy grooming and care range, I love the fact the company has worked with a UK top Aromatherapist to formulate the products and they are made here in the UK and Vegan friendly too.
‘Alva’ ... here is the story behind the brand ...
AlvaHorse was established in 1995. By a Welshman called Phil Bowmen.
In 1992 Phil purchased a Welsh cob c**t called Rhystyd Dazzler. Rusty as he called him, grew into a fine horse and Phil was keen to show him off!
After searching the market place high and low for equine show preparation products to do Rusty's coat justice, he failed.
Phil then employed one of the Uk's top aromatherapists to help him formulate a superior range at affordable prices.
He called the range Alvahorse, Alva being short for Aloe vera as all of the horse products contain Aloe vera. With the help of his products Phil had Rusty's coat looking amazing! and started showing him when he was a 5 year old stallion. Rusty went on to be a
Thirteen times during his short showing career. Sadly Rusty broke his leg while out grazing in 2007.
However, Phil kept his passion for his products and determination to share them and bring them into arms reach for everyone. As we believe everyone deserves to look like and feel like a champion, naturally!
