Crown Royale Biovite #1 Shampoo, Concentrate 4:1 for Fine Coats

Crown Royale Biovite No. 1 Shampoo is a legendary American show shampoo of the highest professional grade, developed specifically for dogs and cats with a fine, thin, long or silky hair structure. This premium formula with an economical 4:1 dilution is enriched with a high concentration of pure biotin and panthenol, which nourish the follicles in depth and strengthen the keratin layer. The shampoo cleans delicately, removing built-up dust, grease and traces of styling products without drying out the skin. It gives the hair perfect elasticity, an incredible mirror-like shine and the right natural weight needed for the coat to fall flawlessly smooth in the ring, without adding harmful artificial fillers.

Premium protein care for a silky finish and protection against tangles

A long, straight, fine coat needs extremely delicate handling in everyday and show grooming. Because of its fine structure, this type of hair is highly prone to instant breakage, split ends and the formation of stubborn knots and silky mats that can ruin any show dog's performance. Using unsuitable or harsh products strips the coat of its luxurious shine and makes it flyaway. Crown Royale's Biovite No. 1 line was created in the USA as a professional answer to the needs of the most demanding show breeds.

The formula works by intelligently layering nutrients, with the added biotin (vitamin B7) penetrating directly into the core of the hair and restoring damaged areas. The creamy, easy-to-rinse lather closes the cuticle perfectly, which eliminates static and helps the comb glide during brushing. The product maintains the skin's natural moisture balance, prevents dandruff and prepares the coat for final topknot styling or precise show styling. The large, economical 3.8 litre bottle ensures long-lasting salon use with maximum cost-effectiveness.

Directions for use

The product is highly concentrated and must be diluted before applying it to your pet.

Dilute the shampoo in a suitable mixing container or grooming shaker at a ratio of 4 parts warm water to 1 part shampoo (for example, 100 ml of concentrate to 400 ml of water). Wet the dog's or cat's coat thoroughly with lukewarm water. Apply the diluted solution evenly and massage gently in the direction of hair growth to avoid mechanical tangling of the long coat. Protect the eyes and the inside of the ears. Leave the rich lather on for about 2 to 3 minutes so the biotin and panthenol are fully absorbed. Rinse extremely thoroughly and carefully with clean water. For a perfect silky result, always finish with a suitable Crown Royale conditioner. The original product label on the bottle must be kept entirely in its original form in English.

Frequently asked questions

Question 1: How does Formula No. 1 differ from the other numbers in the Biovite line? The Crown Royale brand divides the Biovite line by genetic coat type. While Formula #2 is for a medium-density texture and Formula #3 is for harsh hair and volume, Formula #1 is specially calibrated for fine, thin and long silky coats. It does not add artificial volume or stiffness; instead it provides smoothness, softness and a perfect heavy fall of the hair. Question 2: Can the shampoo be used on white dogs of breeds such as the Maltese? Yes, absolutely. Although the liquid has a slight pink tint because of its ingredients, the shampoo is completely safe for pure white coats. It contains no colouring pigments that could leave stains, and the high-quality biotin brightens and enhances the natural shine of white hair, making it look spotlessly clean. Question 3: Why is it important to massage a long coat in the direction of growth during the bath? Fine, long coats tangle extremely easily under mechanical action. Circular, random movements while shampooing can create massive knots in the undercoat. Massaging in the direction of the hair ensures the shampoo cleans effectively while the cuticle stays smooth and ready for easy brushing.

Expert tip

When preparing fine, silky show coats (such as a Yorkshire Terrier's or a Maltese's), managing hydration correctly is the key to a perfect result. Always dilute Crown Royale Biovite No. 1 Shampoo at exactly 4:1 with warm water. Before the main bath, if the coat has been treated with cosmetic oils or topknot sprays, pre-wash with the brand's deep cleansing shampoo (Deep Cleansing): this removes heavy films and lets the biotin in Formula #1 absorb as fully as possible. After rinsing out the shampoo, always apply an intensive conditioner. When blow-drying, set the airflow to a moderate to cool temperature and direct the air strictly from top to bottom in the direction of hair growth, brushing at the same time with a high-quality pin brush without ball tips. This closes the cuticle to a mirror-like shine and gives the gorgeous, heavy, smooth texture required in the show ring. Store the large gallon in a cool place away from sunlight.
