FAQs — Horse Sunburn

Can horses really get sunburn?

Yes. Horses with pink skin, light hair, and white markings are most vulnerable. Muzzles and eye areas are most at risk.

What’s the best cream to use on a sunburned horse?

Look for zinc-based creams like Lincoln Sun Bloc, or natural soothers like Barrier Sunburn Soother with aloe and no artificial chemicals.

Should I use a fly mask for sunburn protection?

Absolutely. Choose one with UV protection to reduce the risk of facial sunburn and photo sensitivity.
