Ok, so my horse has a pink nose and I have a fly mask and it DOESNT extend onto her nose so it leaves it unprotected. It was peeling today and she gets sores on it that bleed for like 2 min. but I want to prevent that from happening, her nose is REALLLY sensitive ::::(((( :( So, I would LIKE to find the cheapest affective solution for her so ya. So should i get something like this: http://www.doversaddlery.com/cashel-quiet-ride-long-nose-fly-mask-with-ears-/p/X1-2374/cn/66/ or sunscreen for her? I think sunscreen may be cheaper but can require more hands on work. And if i got her sunscreen should/can I use human ones? Or should I get her horse sunscreen? Thanks, new to dealing with horse sunburns-AND HUMANS!

Hiya,just a quick note to say that I use human high protection suncream on my little pink nosed chap as does my friend who has his half sister - works for us and I can't see my chap standing still long enough for a fly mask to be put on or keeping it on all day!!!! Hope this helps

i have found it is cheaper to buy a mask in the long run as you can re-use it and only have to buy the one and it won't run out when you really need it, get a black one though as they absorb the heat and most of the ultraviolet (UV) rays.
