So it's important to take good care of yourself and your loved ones, get some warming food on the table (check out the delicious recipe below 🥣) and not least pamper yourself with protective and nurturing things from nature🌿. We recommend this delicious new package offer: "Lovely autumn and winter package" 🍁❄️ with two award-winning products ( Calendula Balm and Panther Balm), along with the excellent Cold Cream and not least the magical Soft Hands with rose and rose root! Packaged in a beautiful and colorful reusable net!
Then it's just a matter of getting out in all kinds of weather and enjoying the autumn days and the less and less daylight, and maybe even collecting even more from the nature where you live 🏡. I'm still picking Calendula , it can handle anything! And mint, lemon balm and sage from the garden are wonderful to add to the teapot 🍋🌿☕️. And then I found a treasure! I harvested physalis in the greenhouse, and discovered that there was a lot of fresh nettle growing there! Yay! That's fantastic!! 🤩
Young and old will benefit from applying protective beeswax 🐝 and nourishing plant power 🌱 to their faces and hands in the future. I definitely make sure to give my skin a little extra care now at this time🧡 Autumn and winter often mean drier skin, red patches, for some people eczema can flare up or fingertips can crack and hands become extra dry. And it is smart and good to protect our beautiful faces from the cold, harsh wind. That is why we offer this "Beautiful Autumn and Winter Package" which is perfect for both the youngest and oldest, and with small, neat sizes that make it more practical to carry in pockets or bags.
With nature protecting and nurturing your skin, you and your loved ones are ready for an active outdoor life! And if, like us, you have access to forests and mountains, it's great to go on a late autumn hike and bring ripe juniper berries home, and then dry them as a spice for future game stews.🍃🍁 On such hikes, it's also fun to break off some juniper branches on the way home, boil a pan with juniper leaves and use them for steaming or add them to a bathtub or foot bath for a little self-care 🛁
In the fall, many of us get extra dry skin, especially on the face and hands 👐 Not only is Marigold Ointment perfect as a day cream and hand cream, it also helps with abrasions, burns, eczema and acne, rashes, cracked skin, and much more. 💫 Regardless of the season, Marigold Ointment is always a saving angel!
❄️ Cold cream 50 ml
It protects well against both cold and harsh weather such as wind, whipping rain and snow (and actually sun with a natural physical factor of 8). Many people say that cold eczema has become history after using Vossabia Cold Cream. I think that's really cool! The ointment contains specially selected nourishing herbal oils, so that you not only get protection for your skin from cold and harsh weather, but you get nourishment and care for both your skin AND body. 💖 And yes, by the way, it was even tested in whipping icy waves while surfing in Stadhavet in January! Skin that couldn't stand the cold, could stand the icy sea with Vossabia Cold Cream! That's the test.
🖤 Panther balm 15 ml
I have put the small panther balm (15ml) in the package so that it is practical to take with you on your trip during the autumn holidays.
When I go on a mountain hike, this is the first thing I pack in my bag. 🥾⛰️ Our friend for aches and pains! On steep downhills, my knees can really hurt. But if I apply Panterbalsam, it increases blood circulation and relieves the pain 👍. It is also absolutely great before and after physical activity. It can also be effective against many common ailments: Sore joints and muscles, sore and tense neck and shoulders, growing pains in children, headaches, stuffy nose, chapped lips, swollen legs and cramps.. and yes, a lot more actually!
🌸 Soft hands with rose and rose root
You'll be looking for a hand cream that provides more intense moisture and supple skin than this one! We're saved! Perfect, silky-soft hands every day! And there's already a lot of feedback on this new product, about hands that are healed from cracks and sores, and an approval that can only be described as magical! Yes, this one must be included everywhere.
When we first get going on a trip, it's never a bad idea to bring some delicious and warming soup 🥣, and there's no problem bringing soup into the forest, as long as we have it in a large food thermos. That way, we can enjoy it during the break 😌.
Warm and rich pumpkin soup, outside in the crisp autumn air! Yes, or inside for dinner or supper 😉
Here is our favorite version:
🎃 Pumpkin soup with ginger and coconut:
- 800 g Hokkaido pumpkin (or your favorite pumpkin)
- 2 pcs. sweet potatoes
- 1 red onion
- 1 tablespoon ginger, finely grated
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 red chili
- 8 dl chicken stock
- 4 dl coconut milk
- 1 piece of lime
- 2 tablespoons sunflower oil salt and pepper, to taste coriander
- 2 tablespoons coconut flakes
🥣 Here's how you do it:
1. Cut the pumpkin with the skin on, and cut into cubes. Remove the seeds (and save them for later, they are good to eat after you have roasted them in a pan with a little good olive oil and salt)
2. Peel and dice the sweet potatoes. Chop the onion, garlic and chili (remove the seeds if you want a milder chili flavor).
3. Heat a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil in a medium saucepan or pan. Sauté the onion until it starts to soften without changing color.
4. Add the ginger, chili and garlic. Continue to fry for a couple of minutes, stirring. Add the pumpkin and sweet potato and continue to fry for a minute.
5. Pour in the stock/. Bring to a boil and simmer until the vegetables are completely tender, about 30 minutes.
6. Use a hand blender and blend the soup until smooth and even, then add the coconut milk.
7. Bring the soup to a boil again and season with lime juice, salt and ground pepper. Serve with a sprinkle of chopped coriander, coconut and, if you can find it, pomegranate seeds.
🍲 Hope it tastes good!
PS You can also make a mask out of some of the pumpkin flesh, like Ylva! 👇 Mash and mix with honey and oat flour!
