I created Equiderma Neem and Arnica Shampoo because I wanted a shampoo that was actually good for the skin, the hair follicles, and the coat. I didn’t want a shampoo that cleans in the moment but leaves the skin dry, stripped, and more reactive after the bath. I wanted an herbal powerhouse that supports healthy skin and a beautiful show coat, while still cleaning thoroughly and rinsing easily.

The way we make it is the whole point. We start with a true herbal foundation, not a token ingredient added at the end. We fill large tea bags with dried neem leaf, arnica, basil, pine bark, cherry bark, and chamomile, then boil and steep them overnight into a strong, rich tea. That concentrated infusion becomes the base of the shampoo. Then we add the remaining ingredients, including neem seed oil (from the neem seed), to create a gentle formula that performs in real barn life.

These botanicals have a long history of use in Ayurvedic and traditional herbal care, and they’ve also been studied for their antioxidant and skin-supportive properties. I wanted a shampoo that could do more than remove dirt, one that supports the skin barrier and the overall skin environment so the coat and skin can stay in a healthier, more comfortable place over time. I built this shampoo so cleansing supports skin comfort and recovery instead of setting the skin back.

At the end of the day, shampoo has to do the basic job first: lift dirt, sweat, and grime and rinse clean. But I didn’t want Equiderma to stop at “clean.” I wanted Equiderma Neem and Arnica Shampoo to respect the skin barrier while it cleans, because that’s what supports a healthy coat long-term. That’s why we built it sulfate-free, using plant-derived, earth-friendly green surfactants selected to cleanse thoroughly without stripping natural oils.

And because it’s gentle and botanical-forward, it’s also a standout for the real-life situations horse people deal with. It’s great for soothing insect bite hypersensitivity and it’s an excellent support in wound care as a cleansing first step—when you want to wash the area thoroughly while still being kind to the skin. The goal is simple and practical: get the horse clean, and support healthy-looking skin and coat going forward.
