    First impressions

    I thought Barrier Sunburn Soother was likely to be easier to apply than the others in test with it being in liquid form. It wasn’t fragranced and had a cooling effect on my palms when applying, which I think would be nice for the horse’s skin.

    Overview of performance

    Barrier Sunburn Soother was very easy to apply, long lasting and absorbed quickly. It did have a slight shine when initially applied, but once soaked in you wouldn’t know the product was on. This made it slightly difficult to see where you had previously applied the cream, but it does what it sets out to do, lasts all day and soothes agitated skin.

    Harriet’s likes and dislikes

    I really like the liquid form as it was very quick and easy to apply. A tint to the colour would make application slightly easier, but that would be me being fairly fussy. Being so clear would, however, be great in a competition environment.

    Verdict

    Easy to apply and a great option if you’re competing.
