Farrier Skincare

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

However, at the end of a day’s work, the sight of your hands may not engender similar feelings. After suffering extremes of heat, friction from tool use and being subjected to horse dander, dirt and grime, your skin can look in desperate need of some care and attention of its own.

Protective gloves help, 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 damage your hand’s natural, protective lipid layer.

As a result, many farriers suffer from dry, sore and brittle skin. The harsh winds of winter only exacerbate this problem, often degenerating into split skin and raw, cracked fingertips. If this condition is left untreated it can become painful and even lead to an increased risk of infection.

Remember, your hands are your livelihood!

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

...Winters were a nightmare. The cold weather resulted in chapped, bleeding hands. As an outdoor person who tends to horses..

Now, I use Derma Shield everyday. This last winter is the first I can remember when I haven’t had chapped hands and bleeding fingers enveloped in bandages and plasters. Many, many thanks.
