Vossabia's old box van is so rusty and tired that it's now irresponsible to drive it anymore, but it's been standing up over the years from market to market! Check out the difference to the lovely new electric box van id Buzz 🐝 Thank you so much for the fantastic service HMV Bilsenter and Unik Print for the impressive work with the design and foiling! Quite a big difference driving to markets and other places with the new car!! 🤩 As I parked my new car at home on the farm, I went straight into Vossabia's production facility and gathered my essential products to keep in the car! Simply MUST-HAVE SKIN PRODUCTS when on the go 🚙 I filled up the glove compartment and storage pockets so that they are easy to get to, because I constantly need a number of our great natural products. Dry hands, dry lips, headache, shoulders or stuffy nose, sunburn, sweaty armpits, and needs that arise at rest stops and hikes. Many needs to be met, and that is no problem when you can store a delicious Botanical Buffet in the car 😉 🐝 My Vossabia friends on the road:
1 - Hand cream ! I get really anxious about driving with dry hands, so Soft Hands is absolutely essential to have in the car. Soft hands is magically softening and smells deliciously seductive of rose and lavender! 🪻I grab it, take a tiny bit, and quickly apply it and it absorbs quickly and well so that I don't slip around on the steering wheel. Perfect!
2 - Lip balms x 2 or 3 💋! Mint lips does the job on dry lips, and if there are mouth ulcers or other ailments it fixes that too! But, quite often I like to have a little color on my lips and, oh then I have some favorites! Kingfishers and Lips contribute with either the discreet "nude" color, and then there is the warm glow of Huldrelepper. But, I have to admit that lately Raspberry Lips (this one is not on sale yet, but soon 💋) have been a staple in cars, pockets and everywhere! It gives the freshest lips AND works as a perfect blush on the cheeks! So a slightly tired Queen Bee becomes the freshest bee in three seconds 🌸🤩
3 - Calendula Balm – THE UNIVERSAL of all!! So, what don't we use it for 😜?
4 - Panther balm ! It MUST be in the car! Tired? Panther balm with invigorating eucalyptus and rosemary on the forehead! Headache? Panther balm on the forehead and neck and shoulders, works wonders with strong herbs. Sore shoulders and back? Panther balm ! Stuffy nose? Panther balm with camphor and mint underneath and on top 🙌!
5 - Sunscreen ☀️ !! If you drive far and the sun gets on you, you may not be protected enough inside the car, and then it can be smart to have some sunscreen on your face 😎☀️But, for me, sunscreen is always with me in case the car trip takes me to the sun and a hike in the mountains or by the sea.
6 - Deodorant . There are quite a few times I've needed to freshen up with a little deodorant on a car trip 👃 Sometimes I've forgotten to put it on in the morning, and then it's just so wonderful to discover that I have your deodorant in the car! A constant lifesaver! 7 - Hair serum 👱♀️ Yes, it's also so nice to have in the car. It's always been used to calm frizzy hair for busy ladies on the road, but also to use on the face for example. Try it, because it's so wonderful for the face, and not least also for a face, scalp and neck massage! So if the car trip is really taking its toll, give yourself a really good face and neck massage, and you'll feel like new! A little Lip balm and blush on the cheeks, replenishment of deodorant and delicious hand cream then you are ready for anything! 8 - Mini shampoo and mini body soap ! Not bad to have in the car if you're the spontaneous type like me, who suddenly has to go on an excursion with an unplanned overnight stay 🌝. Otherwise, I promise you that you'll be glad to have these in the car if you come to a river or a lake that you just HAVE to jump into! Then it's good to have a healthy wash in addition! 9 - Sensual !! Yes. Sensual can definitely have its permanent place in the car. Who knows what can happen at a rest area or on the ferry? I won't say more! 🔥 10 - Essential Sensual . A small bottle of natural perfume that you can apply behind your ears or under your wrists, and you're ready and feeling great! 💕
Yes, there you have my Skin Products for glove compartments or shelves in the car. Real botany in the car! And for those of us who drive so much here in the district, when public transport is a foreign word we don't know the meaning of (because it barely exists), this is part of our skin and wellness preparedness! 🚗 Beauty and wellness on the go with nature's best skincare in your car! Awesome!

Fortunately, you only need a few simple ingredients, such as essential oils and common household items, to make your own air freshener.
1. Baking soda and essential oils
- Fill a medium-sized glass jar with a lid about two-thirds full with baking soda. - Add 20 drops of essential oil 💧 (for example, sweet orange oil or stimulating rosemary). - Shake the glass well to mix the ingredients. - Use the lid to draw a circle on a piece of cardboard, cut it out and place it on top of the jar. - Secure the cardboard with the metal ring from the lid, and make several small holes in the cardboard with a pin or needle. - Place the glass in the cup holder or under a seat (make sure it is stable before you start driving). This gives a mild and pleasant scent to the car over time. 🌸
2. Essential oils on cotton balls or clothespins
- Drop a few drops of essential oil onto a cotton ball or a wooden clothespin. - Place the cotton ball in a small corner of the car or attach the clothespin to an air vent. - When the air circulates, the scent spreads gently and nicely throughout the car. ⚠️ Important safety tip: Avoid placing cotton balls with essential oils near heat sources, such as vents that blow hot air, as some oils are flammable.
3. Felt and essential oils
- Cut out a desired shape from felt. - Drip a few drops of essential oil onto the felt piece. - Attach a string or ribbon and hang it from the rearview mirror – just like a regular air freshener. Then I hope you feel Roadtrip-Ready and are inspired to create your own car package for refreshed skin, hair and air – even on long car trips 🚗! I'm definitely looking forward to short and long trips with our new beautiful car! And on Saturday the bee car and Vossabia will be coming to Bergen and the Farmers' Market at Fisketorget! Hope to see you there 😉! |
