HydraFix Lip & Nose Balm

The horse’s mouth, lips and nose are continuously exposed to stress resulting from bridle and bit as well as from various environmental factors such as heavy sun, temperature fluctuations and UV radiation. This sensitizes mouth, lips and nose and renders it increasingly vulnerable.

Julian & Jones has developed an ‘active-ingredient-concept’ which precisely meets these high demands:

HydraFix Lip & Nose Balm with PENTAVITIN®  and DEFENSIL® gives skin hydration for 72* hours and protects again painful, rough or chapped corners of the mouth and protects the nose from sunburns.
This lip and nose balm contains sun filters and is formulated on the basis of the natural product beeswax. It contains no ingredients of animal or mineral oil origin (petroleum derivatives), is GMO and CMR-free and is free from pesticides. The green colour camouflages red imperfections. The delicious apple scent makes your horse already licking his lips!

Description of active ingredients:

PENTAVITIN® is locking in moisture as a magnet and perfectly connects with the skin’s top layers and is not washed off. It strengthens the skin’s barrier function for long-lasting benefits.

• Proven deep skin hydration for 72 hours by our This complementary food is particularly recommended: strenghth of 3%*, skin smoothness and skin comfort
• Reduces flakiness and itchiness
• Skin becomes visibly smoother
• Calms stressed skin

The active cosmetic ingredient DEFENSIL® with This complementary food is particularly recommended: strength of 2% protects the skin barrier, moisturizes and has an anti-inflammatory and soothing effect*. It normalizes sensitive skin by a 3-phase operating principle:

Cardiospermum Halicacabum
Cardiospermum is a climbing plant which originally stems from the tropics. Its name came about because of a white heart-shaped mark on the seed. In pharmacy it is well known to be effective against itching and allergic skin rashes. This is attributed to the high proportions of phytosteroles, triterpenes and stearidonic acids (omega-3-fatty acids), whose anti-inflammatory properties are especially interesting. 

Echiumolie - Cold pressed powerful oil
The oil is extracted from the seeds by cold pressing. Echium oil is very rich in stearidonic acid, an essential omega-3 fatty acid which is known for its anti-inflammatory property. The stearidonic acid effectively inhibits the 5-Lipoxygenase enzyme and thus retards the inflammatory mechanism. The equally high proportion of 7% – 12% gamma-linoleic acid is also responsible for the optimum protection of the skin barrier, as unsaturated fatty acids regenerate the intercellular cement of the epidermis. 

Natural vitamin E (tocopherol) and squalene in the sunflower oil
Reduction in lipid peroxidation*. 

Due to their interesting composition, which is characterised by a high proportion of sterols, the unsaponifiable elements of the sunflower oil have a particularly soothing effect on the skin. The notable presence of natural vitamin E and squalene in the unsaponifiable element of the sunflower oil are of equal importance in the regeneration and care of the skin. The skin is protected and supplied with important ingredients, and in this way deficits are compensated for in a natural way.
