Ingredients
Decyl Glucoside
A naturally derived, biodegradable cleanser sourced from renewable plant materials. It effectively removes dirt, sweat and excess oils while remaining exceptionally gentle on the skin, making it suitable for frequent use.
Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
A plant-derived conditioning agent that helps detangle the mane and tail, improves coat manageability, reduces static and leaves the hair feeling soft without relying on silicones.
Hydrolysed Oat Protein
A conditioning protein that helps strengthen the hair shaft while improving moisture retention. It leaves the coat with a healthy, natural shine and helps reduce dryness after washing.
Vegetable Glycerine
A natural humectant that attracts moisture to the skin and hair, helping maintain hydration and supporting healthy skin without leaving a greasy residue.
Liquid Germall Plus
A broad-spectrum preservative that protects the shampoo from bacteria, yeast and mould, ensuring the product remains safe and effective throughout its shelf life.
Citric Acid
Used to carefully adjust the shampoo to a skin-friendly pH, helping support the horse's natural skin barrier while improving overall product stability.
Purified Water
Provides the base of the shampoo, allowing the active ingredients to disperse evenly for consistent cleaning and conditioning.
Why these ingredients?
At JS Equine Body Connection, every ingredient is chosen for a reason—not simply to make a longer ingredient list.
Rather than relying on harsh detergents, heavy silicones or unnecessary fillers, Coat Defence+ combines gentle cleansing agents with conditioning ingredients that work together to support both the coat and skin.
The result is a shampoo that:
-
Cleans effectively without stripping the coat's natural oils.
-
Leaves the coat soft, smooth and naturally shiny.
-
Helps reduce tangles in the mane and tail.
-
Supports healthy skin through balanced hydration.
-
Is suitable for regular use on all coat colours and breeds.
-
Is silicone-free, helping maintain the coat's natural feel and allowing dirt and dust to brush away more easily between washes.
Coat Defence+ was developed from over 15 years of practical experience working with horses across a wide range of disciplines—from Grand National competitors and racehorses to show horses, performance horses and beloved family companions.
Every ingredient has been selected to provide practical performance while remaining gentle on the horse's skin and coat, creating a shampoo that delivers professional results without unnecessary additives.
