MAC WIPE BUCKET by BICKMORE: The Mac Wipe Equine Body Grooming Wipes are specially formulated for the horse- their skin and coat. They were created to remove dirt, grime, sweat, lather, and that "all over dust" that Fall and Winter seem to bring with them. Mac Wipe is better than the alternative baby wipes that many people have begun to use. Do not think that Mac Wipe is only for the cooler seasons. Mac Wipe Body Grooming Wipes are perfect for long weekends at the show as a fast fix on the way into the arena, before and after a tough workout, or just as a refreshing clean-up for your horse. Bickmore is providing the consumer with three sizes of wipes for a custom fit for their lifestyle. All of the towels are durable enough for all over body grooming but gentle enough to use around the horse's ears, eyes, and nose. 63 piece tub. Retail $26.99...SALE $21.99!!!     


COWBOY MAGIC DETANGLER & SHINE:  Neutralizes static hair electricity instantly. Knots and dreadlocks fall out tangle free right away, no matter how difficult. The silk protein in COWBOY MAGIC Detangler and Shine results in a high shine after brushing. Pure conditioning, contains no water or alcohol, does not dry hair. Detangles as you rub it in and keeps on working, resulting in less grooming time and less product used, saving time and money. Penetrates below the surface and restores moisture while strengthening hair, resulting in a natural shine with a soft texture. Repels dirt, dust, and sand, resulting in a shine that lasts longer. Not oily. A small amount (about the size of a nickel) massaged into wet or dry hair will instantly detangle and deep condition. Continue to add nickel sized amounts and brush through until a rich, silky-smooth, shine appears. BIG BOTTLE-946 ml. Retail $66.99...FEBRUARY SALE $56.99!!!

MSM: MSM is a dietary derivative of DMSO, a natural food found in most plants and in the milk of all animals. It is one of nature's best sources of dietary sulfur, an important mineral in the synthesis of vitamins (biotin and thiamin), amino acids (methionine and cysteine), and chondroitin sulfates (compounds that assist joint lubrication). MSM is needed to form collagen, which is the building block for many structures including bone, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, synovial fluid, skin, hoof, hair and other connective tissue. Vitamin C is sometimes added to enhance the benefits. MSM is required to maintain the health of epithelial tissues that form the linings of the lungs, nose, sinuses, throat, mouth and the gastro-intestinal tract. Veterinarians have used MSM in horses with arthritis, hoof ailments, laminitis, allergies, skin problems, and gastro-intestinal inflammations for years. To experience the benefits, it might take up to several weeks. Recommended serving: two scoops (8-10 grams) once or twice daily added to feed. 99.8% pure, daily supplement. Start with 10 grams (1/3 ounce) twice daily for seven days. After seven days, feed 3-5 grams twice daily for maintenance dose. Therapeutic dose 8-10 grams twice daily. 30 g daily under extreme conditions. 1/3-ounce scoop enclosed. Ingredients: Pure Pharmaceutical Grade Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM). No fillers.
