"I am a schmuck for all effol products, but for everyday conditioning of my horses feet I don't prefer it. Now, don't get me wrong I still really like it, I use this stuff for shows and when my horse needs to look red-carpet ready. Although I despise how fast this goes and it seems as though it does not keep my horses hoofs in as good of a condition as their other hoof products. I keep the oil on hand for showing but for everyday use I prefer the gel form, but smartpak does not carrie that form any more and the places that do are getting smaller and smaller and are opting for the oil."

"I haven't used many hoof oils for anything other than polish, so this is my first! I bought it at the recommendation of my instructor because my dutch warmblood had dry, brittle hooves. This oil fixed that after only a few applications. Overall, I would recommend it, but I don't know how it compares to other hoof oils! However, the whole effax/effol line is wonderful, so I expected nothing less :)"

"I've been using the original Effol hoof conditioner for 15 years. Earlier this year, when I saw the Oil form I decided to buy some. It's slightly easier to apply than the waxier conditioner, but doesn't last as long before you have to buy more. Probably, a little more wastage because it runs down the hoof wall, whereas the conditioner stays right where you put it. Also, if it gets knocked over with the lid off, there it goes....the conditioner is pretty much spill proof unless it's 90 degrees in the summer. I save the oil mainly for shows and use the conditioner kind at home. Either way, you can't go wrong with Effol Hoof dressings!"

"The Effol hoof oil is great for dressage shows to look finished, without looking like a glass. It is best if you allow it to dry before exposing the hoof to anything."

"I love this stuff, I use it a few times a week and my horse's hooves really show it. He went about 8.5 between farrier appts last time because his feet looked perfect, no chips, no cracking, they looked like they had just been trimmed. It also helps after the muddy spring for keeping the heels and frog from get dry and cracked. Great product!"

"I use this on my gelding who is stallbound while he recovers from surgery. His feet have become so hard and solid from the dryness of the bedding that the farrier was having a difficult time trimming his feet. The Effol gives his feet back their pliability."

High Gloss & Condition

"I was really pleased that the Effol Hoof Oil had such a nice shine packed with conditioners. The clear oil is great for my horse with 4 white feet and the size of the can fits perfectly in my grooming tote. It comes with a screw on cap so you can rest assured that this one won't leak en-route to your door!"
