do you use Pepi or Grand Champion to give them that extra shine. i know some people use Show Sheen too. i use Show Sheen on their bodies and either Grand Champion or Pepi on their mane and tail. if you use something else dont be shy and tell us what you use!

Proper nutrition will really make a horses coat shine. There are supplements that you can feed, but there really is no substitute for overall proper feeding and daily grooming!

Careful with the show sheen, it will actually dry thier skin out. I use healthy hair care body spray daily and just touch up with show sheen on show day

Yeah....you could definitely overuse showsheen. It has silicone in it, so could actually damage hair. I use it for shows, but will wash it out of manes and tails afterward. I do like Pepi coat too. Careful with spraying showsheen too much on the saddle area too....makes things kind of slippery

....I've used Lasersheen too...don't think it's quite as slippery as Showsheen

I just bought a bottle of Laser sheen yesterday to try on Lucky, seems to work pretty well so far!

I use pepi for a bit of extra shine, it works well to bring out that extra bit of shine. Plus it smells really good!

groom your horse for at least 30 mins a day and you will see a huge difference!
