DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Precious Drop is Chris Christensen’s definitive leave-in treatment for drop coat breeds — a non-oily keratin protein and lavender essential oil spray that penetrates the coat shaft, reduces frizz, prevents matting, eliminates breakage, and produces the soft, flowing, brilliantly sheened coat that defines show-standard drop coat presentation. Unlike heavy conditioners that weigh the coat down or separate it into clumps, Precious Drop’s lightweight formula sprays on invisibly, works through the coat without residue, and does not disrupt the natural fall and flow of long coat that drop coat breeds require. It functions as both a post-bath leave-in treatment and a daily maintenance spray for dry coat — versatile enough for grooming day and every day between. The concentrate version dilutes 16:1, yielding two gallons of ready-to-use spray from a single bottle — exceptional value for professional groomers and multi-dog households.

COMPOSITION

Key Ingredients: Water, Cetrimonium Chloride (conditioning, static reduction), Glyceryl Stearate (emulsifier, skin conditioner), Isopropyl Palmitate (emollient, coat softener), Stearyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol (conditioning fatty alcohols), Cyclopentasiloxane, Cyclotetrasiloxane, Dimethiconol (silicone smoothing agents for shine and slip), Acetamide MEA (moisture retention), Keratin Amino Acids (structural coat protein replenishment), Disodium EDTA, Propylene Glycol, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E antioxidant), Fragrance (lavender blossom essential oil).

Note: Concentrate dilutes 16:1. Always refer to product label for batch-specific details.

KEY BENEFITS

• Keratin Protein Replenishment — Amino acids fill structural gaps in the coat shaft, reducing breakage, improving tensile strength, and restoring smoothness to damaged, over-brushed, or chemically stressed coat.
• Non-Oily, Non-Separating Formula — Does not clump, weigh down, or disrupt the natural fall of drop coat. The coat flows and moves as it should after application — essential for breeds where coat presentation depends on natural, undisturbed movement.
• Frizz Control and Anti-Matting — Silicone smoothing agents and conditioning fatty alcohols reduce the micro-friction between coat fibres that causes frizz and tangle formation. Tangles that do form brush out with significantly less force — reducing coat breakage during daily maintenance.
• Lavender Blossom Essential Oil — Provides a light, clean, calming fragrance that fades gently rather than accumulating into a synthetic chemical smell across repeated applications.

USAGE GUIDE

Post-Bath (Wet Coat): Spray liberally from root to ends on freshly washed, towel-blotted coat. Work through with a brush from roots to ends. Blow dry and style in the normal fashion. Do not rinse out.

Daily Maintenance (Dry Coat): Mist lightly across dry coat. Brush through gently. Suitable for daily use between baths on drop coat breeds that require consistent moisture and frizz management to prevent matting between grooming sessions.

Concentrate Dilution: Mix 1 part concentrate to 16 parts water in a spray bottle. Shake gently before each use. Label the diluted bottle clearly and store in a cool location away from direct sunlight.

Suitable Breeds: Primarily formulated for drop coat breeds — Yorkshire Terriers, Maltese, Shih Tzus, Lhasa Apsos, Afghan Hounds, Bearded Collies, Old English Sheepdogs, Silky Terriers, and all breeds with long, flowing, non-shedding coats requiring daily coat management.
