Absorbine New Product Review

Well, Once again my great friends at Absorbine / W.F. Young contacted me and asked if I would be interested in trying a new product. So, of course I said, "Yes, send me something. I'll give it a try!" . Shortly, there after I received this can of Absorbine Show Sheen Finishing Mist. As per Absorbine's Website,

"Celebrated worldwide as the best-selling hair polish in over 25 countries, ShowSheen is now available as a Finishing Mist. Perfect for last-minute touch-ups, ShowSheen Finishing Mist has a continuous, quiet sprayer that won't spook your horse and even sprays upside down.

I did take a couple of before pics, but not what I really should have, because I was so excited to have caught my horses and have them cooperate with me that I just got to work on the dreaded "burr" removal.

The remaining pictures from here down are "After" .

Now, I do not show my horses, however, I do like to keep them relatively clean when necessary, such as "burrs" plaguing them or mostly in the summer when riding. Usually, I use cooking spray to clear out burrs, but I thought I'd try this finishing spray, even though technically I'm not finishing prior to a show. I must admit, it worked really well as a "burr" removal product and it smelled real good. Well, that is until Misty farted in my face as I was finishing her tail. Neither horse minded the spray action or the smell, but in saying that, they are well behaved girls and both girls love a good grooming session and they are used to me messing about with them. I like the product and I would purchase it. It seems to average around $10 a can and although "cooking spray" is cheaper, I used less of the Absorbine Show Sheen Finishing spray to get the job done than I have in the past using the cooking spray. And I still have plenty left in the can. So I would recommend this product especially to those of you who do show. And it leaves tails and manes pretty and shiny.
