Welcome to Day Ten of the 12 Days of Giftmas by Inside Track Eventing – the ultimate Equestrian Christmas Gift Guide! Each day for the 12 days, I will be bringing you a range of Christmas gift ideas for the horse lovers in your life, each day centred around a specific theme – that will hopefully provide some inspiration for your Christmas gift shopping, or your own Santa list!
You can find the entire gift guide for every day here – why not bookmark it so you can come back to it each day, or use it as your inspiration when doing your Christmas shopping?
The theme for Day Ten of the 12 Days of Giftmas is Dear Santa – Love, Equestrian Bloggers. For today’s Gift Guide, I asked some of my favourite Equestrian Bloggers to tell me which product would they recommend for a Christmas gift this year, or which one was on their own Santa list? Read on for X gift ideas
Kate, Keep It Country
“Seeing as Christmas is all about giving, I am keen on giving this little cracker of a company, Welly Banter Creations, some love. The little bits that Charlotte has to offer are both funny and quaint and perfect for that culchie in your life!
“Gift Smart with Smart Grooming! Recently launched on the website, not only do Smart Grooming have the perfect gift sets for your horse from beautiful grooming brushes to trimming/pamper/show ready items, ensuring there’s something for every horse & every occasion – there is now also something for us riders too!
The rider gift sets include gorgeous natural skin care products, oils, reed diffusers and room sprays. These are in collaboration with another local company and come gift wrapped. All products are made with natural ingredients to promote relaxation, revive tired or aching muscles and boost energy levels.”
Catherine, Wild Atlantic Rider
“It is so important to protect your skin every day – as equestrians we are outside through all the seasons and regularly leave our skin exposed. I love the Skin Nerd Skingredients 04 with SPF 50. It is affordable, light wearing and a little goes a long way. It also has a primer incorporated in it which leaves a lovely dewy feel on your skin, and I’ve begun to rely less and less on foundation as a result.
I bought mine in July and use it every day, sometimes multiple times (it lived in my handbag all summer) – I’m only now at the bottom of this jar so I think it’s great value for money!”
Lucy Blain, cromwellandlucy
“My Christmas gift pick would have to be the beautiful hand engraved headcollar name plates from Brass Tacks. You can either purchase one of their stunning leather head collar with an engraved plate, or just the plate alone with fixings for your existing leather head collar. Either way, your horse will be sure to look fabulous at home and away from the yard. It’s a must have on the Christmas list this year!”
Sarah, Elebert Equine

“There are too many to choose from, but I think my favourite winter product has to be the Kerrits Ice Fill Lite Long Sleeve Top. It’s smart, breathable, and comfortably paired with breeches or jeans!”
Darielle, No Bucking Way Blog
“Packhorse.ie, an home made product, “mane & tail silk” is absolutely stunning! It has helped me tame down Dante’s mane massively as well as keeping it looking super glossy and smooth. everyone I feel needs in their grooming box, especially if shows are coming back’, the perfect tool to have your horse looking 10/10″
Thanks to all my wonderful fellow bloggers for agreeing to take part in today’s Gift Guide, and putting such thought and effort into sharing recommendations for all styles, tastes and budgets, that you will all hopefully love!
