"The story of "Kevin Bacon's" foot grease began... in my butcher's workshop near Liège, in the early 1980s.
I had just bought a mare who was suffering from a torn heel and I couldn't find anything to regrow the horn. A friend then advised me to make my own walking grease. Something that my job made easier.
I then met farriers, veterinarians and pharmacists to develop a miracle formula.
I thus developed a product based on animal fats, vegetable oils and bay leaf extract (obtained by maceration) which really penetrates the horn to maintain humidity inside the hoof. The benefits of this plant were not necessarily unknown but by doing the extraction myself, I controlled the active ingredients present." Founder of the brand Kevin Bacon's
