    Spenol. Best perfume free lotion in the world.

    Fun fact: Today it’s mostly used as regular skin lotion, but the original market was for use on cow’s udders for the same reason you’d use them on hands.

    Source: Grew up on a noggie dairy farm. We had a 4 liter jug at all times.

      I’ve got to check this out, so many lotions have some perfume and it gets annoying… Thanks for the tip! And a fun fact indeed lol!

      I trust cows, if they didn’t mind I wont either

        Plus a clean cow smells magnificently without perfume anyway.

          Agreed! Now I’m starting to miss living in an area where I might see cows sometimes… Always make me happy.

    If you want a wool sweater, you can’t go wrong with Dale of Norway. And they are produced in Norway.

        Yes, I agree. So I bought one a couple of years ago. And sure they are expensive, but I rather pay for quality that lasts.

      Was recently in Norway and saw many people with cool cozy patterns and wanted to buy a wool sweater, but I didn’t have time to check brands. I think I might order one of those.

      Thanks for the local tip!

    I have some thermo wool mesh first layers from Brynje that I’m happy with. They produce in Poland.

      I’m planning to get some new winter clothes and that looks like quite a good website they have with proper info, would you say Brynje clothes feel durable?
