Farrier skin care

As a farrier youundoubtedly hold a deep commitment for the care and well being of horses.  Your job is challenging and physicallydemanding, but the sight of seeing a freshly shoed horse is reward in itself.

However, at theend of a day’s work, the sight of your hands may not engender similarfeelings.  After suffering extremes ofheat, friction from tool use and being subjected to horse dander, dirt andgrime, your skin can look in desperate need of some care and attention of itsown.

Protective gloveshelp, but they are often impracticable and can add to skin abrasion -especially when sweat is trapped.  In addition,the need for regular washing as you travel from client to client can damageyour hand’s natural, protective lipid layer.

As a result, manyfarriers suffer from dry, sore and brittle skin. The harsh winds of winter onlyexacerbate this problem, often degenerating into split skin and raw, crackedfingertips. If this condition is left untreated it can become painful and evenlead to an increased risk of infection.

Remember, yourhands are your livelihood!

To keep your skin in top condition, you will need toemploy a product that moisturises, nurtures and protects; is resistantto constant hand washing, hypo-allergenic and fragrance free.  It should not leave a greasy residue,allowing your skin to breathe and perspire normally.
