Iv San Bernard ATAMI H270 2-Phase, 300 ml is a two-phase leave-in spray for the skin and coat of dogs and cats from the professional ATAMI line by the Italian brand Iv San Bernard. It contains jojoba and avocado oils to nourish and moisturise, hydrolysed keratin, wheat amino acids, hydrolysed silk, panthenol and bamboo extract. According to the manufacturer, it adds texture, eases brushing and detangling, and gives volume, shine and a well-groomed look. It's used for dry, brittle coats, after trimming and clipping, and on short coats in place of a conditioner.
What "two-phase" means
The bottle holds two phases that don't mix: a water phase and an oil-silicone phase. Shaking blends them, and a light emulsion lands on the coat. The water part moisturises, while oils and silicones coat each hair in a thin film, making it smooth and less prone to tangles and static. More in caring for your dog's coat at home.

Ingredients
Water (75–100%), cyclopentasiloxane (10–25%), denatured alcohol (5–10%), isohexadecane (5–10%), PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, jojoba seed oil (0.1–1%), isopropyl myristate, dimethiconol, shea butter, amodimethicone, avocado oil, hydrolysed keratin, wheat amino acids, hydrolysed silk, carboxymethyl chitosan, panthenol, bamboo extract, colourants, preservatives (phenoxyethanol, parabens) and fragrance. Because the manufacturer gives percentages, you can see the spray is mostly water and a volatile silicone, with nourishing oils added in small amounts.
How to apply it
Shake the bottle well before use. Spray onto a coat that has been lightly towel-dried after bathing so the skin and coat absorb it better. Don't rinse. Brush and finish drying. According to the manufacturer, the best results come from spraying onto dry long hair. On short coats, it can replace conditioner after washing. Avoid the eyes and nose.
After clipping and trimming
The manufacturer recommends H270 after trimming and clipping, when coat and skin especially need moisture. The spray helps style the coat and makes it look more groomed. If your pet tangles easily, combine the spray with regular brushing — see TropiClean Tangle Remover.
For cats
The spray also suits cats, but remember that cats lick their fur. Use a minimal amount and spray it onto a comb or your palm rather than directly onto the cat — less product ends up on the coat and the hiss won't scare her.

Who it suits
Owners of dogs and cats with dry, brittle or tangle-prone coats; groomers for finishing after clipping and trimming; and owners of show animals who want volume and shine.
Verdict
Iv San Bernard ATAMI H270 2-Phase is a two-phase leave-in spray for dog and cat coats: it eases brushing, adds volume and shine and contains jojoba and avocado oils, keratin and panthenol. The downsides are the small amount of nourishing ingredients and the presence of alcohol, fragrance, parabens and colourants, so use it carefully on sensitive skin.
