Our hedgewitch has come up with a sustainable alternative to pig oil, made specifically to meet the needs of horses. We've added lavender essential oil to support the function and health of the skin. It also has antibacterial and antifungal activity.

Hedgewitch horse oil is 100% plant-based and can be used in exactly the same way as pig oil but without the carbon footprint (pig oil is white oil from petrochemicals). Horse oil can be used on feather and legs to protect them from the effects of mud and wet, help prevent ‘bog burn’ and mud fever. It can also be used to help discourage mites.

Horse oil can be applied sparingly to the coat, mane, and tail to leave the hair silky, shiny and tangle-free - we advise spritzing using our trigger spray or as a 'hot oil' application.

Hedgewitch horse oil has natural antioxidant and antibacterial properties to help support the health and resilience of your horse’s skin through the winter months.

Our horse oil is made from the oil found in coconuts, which are only sourced from sustainable plantations. The coconut oil is fractionated to separate out the long-chain fatty acids and produce a very light, food-grade oil - no chemicals are used in the extraction process. The resulting non-greasy oil is easily absorbed by the skin and moisturises without blocking pores.

Horse oil with lavender

I love this oil and use it constantly. I have a horse with a lovely long mane, but the hair is quite corse and knots easily, so can be broken when brushed. A small amount of this oil 2 or 3 times a week keeps his mane shiny and tangle free. I very rarely wash his mane and tail due to using this product as the mud just doesn't stick and it seems to keep it very clean ( he is out and un -rugged and loves to roll ) Its also great for spraying on legs so the mud doesn't stick so much and is easy to brush off. Also it smells lovely. Highly recommended
