About us
Our story
Horsessentials was founded in 2005 by a French horse owner and rider, passionate about aromatherapy and convinced of the extraordinary power of essential oils to maintain health, improve well-being and stimulate the body’s self-healing capabilities.
Right from the start of this adventure, her goal has been to offer you top-quality, effective and natural horse care products.
Our philosophy
Essential oils are extremely effective to maintain health and improve well-being. Using essential oils nevertheless requires in-depth knowledge, given their high concentration in active principles.
Our objective is to offer you safe, ready-to-use and environmentally-friendly products.
Our quality commitment
Our products have been formulated specifically for horses by a world-renowned aromatherapy specialist. They are manufactured in France by a cosmetic laboratory and in Belgium by a pharmaceutical laboratory. Both laboratories follow human-grade manufacturing standards.
To achieve the highest quality and optimal effectiveness, our products :
- only contain 100% natural active principles (essential oils, vegetable oils, plant tinctures, clay, aloe vera, etc.);
- are highly concentrated in active principles;
- only contain chemotyped essential oils (i.e., biochemically defined essential oils);
- have a pH balanced for the horse's skin;
- use natural preservatives or, if this is not possible for a given product, mild preservatives accepted by most natural cosmetic certification labels (such as Cosmebio, Ecocert or BDIH);
- use excipients (gel base, emulsifiers, etc.) from vegetable origin, wherever possible.
Our products contain :
- no artificial colourings;
- no synthetic fragrance (our product fragrances only result from the 100% natural active ingredients present in our formulations);
- no parabens.
We do not carry out animal testing.
Our manufacturing processes are friendly to the environment.
Our packaging is fully recyclable.
