How do you decide how to do your makeup for shows? Do you just apply it heavier so it can be seen farther away or do you do soemthing different which comes across better?

I normally apply it darker like stage makeup, maybe with some different choices for colors to make it easier to see. Something like navy eyeliner might be lost on a judge.

I didn't realize horses used makeup. I used to see my grandpa put baby oil to some of his show horses I thought it was his way of cleaning him. But he told me it was a way to bring out the shine in his darker colored horses.

I was watching the olympics jumpings today and I could not even believe it - I felt dumb, theres horses in the olmpics? I must have been blind lately, I watched as the candian took the gold and still felt dumb about it going "really"?

Dressage, eventing and jumping have been apart of the Olympics since the 1900's. It is one of the few Olympic events where men and women compete against each other.
