Pink skin on a blaze or a snip, bald patches, and the muzzle on a paint or an Appaloosa burn readily, and a burned muzzle is sore enough to affect eating. Zinc oxide at 20% provides a physical barrier that sits on the skin rather than absorbing into it, which is what makes it effective on a nose that's out in the sun all day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe formula also carries chlorhexidine gluconate at 1% as a topical antiseptic and citronella oil at 1% to repel insects, with aloe vera to soothe skin that's already irritated. That combination matters because the places that burn are the same thin-skinned places flies target, and the same places that get raw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eZinc oxide 20%\u003cbr\u003eChlorhexidine gluconate 1%\u003cbr\u003eCitronella oil 1%\u003cbr\u003eWith aloe vera\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eClean and dry the area first. Apply a visible layer to the muzzle, blaze, ears, or any pink or thinly haired skin exposed to sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eZinc oxide works as a physical barrier, so it needs to be seen to be working. A thin invisible smear isn't doing the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eReapply as needed, particularly after sweating, washing, rain, or grazing, which rubs it off the muzzle quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eApply before turnout rather than after, and remember that sun exposure is heaviest in the middle of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCautions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFor external use only.
