Parabens, sulphates & petro-chemicals - why you should think twice before using them on your horse
In a world where there's an almost unlimited selection of horse care products you could choose, an increasing number of us are turning to natural products.
So which product ingredients are good and which are bad? Fortunately, you don't need to be a scientist to know the answer. Anyone who has followed the human beauty industry will know that there are 3 big names on the 'naughty' list: parabens, sulphates and petro-chemicals.
The question is, what are they and why should we be avoiding them?
Meet the Maker: Jane Acuta | Well Gel
Well Gel's 'Mane Event' has been our best selling horse care product since we started selling it back in October and it's easy to find out why. Anyone who has a horse that suffers with rubbed manes, tails, patches on their coat, will know how frustrating it is. Even more so when you've tried every lotion and potion under the sun, to no avail.
Mane Event was a chance discovery for me, having had a sensitive 'ginger' horse whose coat and mane rubbed at the drop of a hat. I was blown away when the product started working within just a week and his coat & mane continued to grow back stronger and fuller for the following months.
Here at Honest Riders, we have been trialling the rest of Jane's range (it's all just as great as 'Mane Event') so we were thrilled to catch up with her and find out more...

Wardrobe walk-through: Sweatshirts
We get asked all the time about how the different sizes will 'fit'. So in true fashion-blogger style, I decided to create a video that shows you each of the sweatshirts we sell and give advice on which size to pick.
There are 13 different sweatshirts to choose from in our current collection, so hopefully this will help you decide.
