Cleaning Products for Christmas?!
Believe it or not, people really appreciate Norwex products as gifts! Many of my customers found Norwex because they received their first products as a gift. This is a great way to introduce your friends and family to these great products ~items that they may not have purchased for themselves but will fall in love with!
When I give Norwex as a gift, I put my items in a beautiful gift bag with some tissue, ribbon and I always include a catalogue. This way they can read the information about how the products work, why they are good for our environment and our health and the directions for their use and care are provided.

A Focus on the Environment and our Children
We all went the best for our children -the best schools, the best doctors, the best foods...
As our Planet becomes more toxic, we must consider the environment where our children live and the quality of the air they breathe and the water they drink.
All things are interdependent....what we do has consequences. If we make positive choices, we are able to affect the future. Also, by teaching our children about caring for the environment...we are influencing their actions as they grow into decision-making, independent adults.
There are more than a billion households on earth. Homes surpass industry in how they contribute to water pollution. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has found that the toxic chemicals in household cleaners are 3x more likely to cause cancer than outdoor air. In the last 50 years, over 80 000 new chemicals have been produced and the majority of them have not been tested for their long-term impact. A consumer product safety commission study in the U.S. found that 150 chemicals found in the average home are linked to allergies, birth defects, cancers, psychological abnormalities, etc.
Toxins that enter our environment are ravaging our lives -and even more so the lives of our children.
Because children are smaller and still developing, they are far more vulnerable to toxic exposure than adults.
Knowing that Norwex offers a healthier alternative for cleaning and knowing that children mimic every action... has led to the development of the new Norwex kids line!
Kids love to help out and now you can provide them with their own cleaning tools that are safe and non-toxic. With Norwex, it is actually safe and educational to let your child touch the cleaning supplies!
When you share your passion for chemical-free cleaning with your children, you are teaching them about making educated decisions as a future consumer, how to protect the environment and how to make decisions that affect health and well-being.
Our mission to save the planet can start with children by offering kid-focused products. This early focus will teach them to grow up cleaning without chemicals. Cleaning with microfiber and water is how you clean.
Happy Cleaning!

Fruits and vegetables are sprayed with toxic chemicals to protect them from pests and fungal attacks. They are coated with a wax/oil to prevent the produce from decaying and to preserve the quality and appearance of the produce during transportation. This waxy layer is also a host for microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Also of note for persons with food allergies...the wax that is used on fruit may contain SOY or MILK ingredients.
The Norwex Veggie cloth is back! It has a rough side for scrubbing and smooth side for polishing. It cleans the dirt off potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, and debris from fruits and vegetables. This cloth has been scientifically proven to remove the coating and nasties from your fruit and veggies!
Norwex also offers a Fruit and Veggie Wash called Fresh Wash. This specifically formulated fruit and veggie wash is a safe, effective alternative for cleaning fruit and vegetables. This product will also protect fruit from damage during storage or transport and extends produce shelf life by 2 to 3 times. To use: Mix one capful in 500 ml of water, soak your fruits or veggies for 5-10 minutes, rinse well and enjoy!

Did you know there is such a thing as
"Fall Cleaning?"
.... it seems that with the change of seasons we are inspired to refresh our spaces and clean house! I personally am feeling the itch to get out my Autumn decorations and put away the Summer clothes, shoes and toys."Fall Cleaning?"
Fall is starting off great with the September specials from Norwex. I have never seen so many great deals at once! If you are a fan or have been wanting to try Green cleaning without chemicals, this is a great time to try it out!
Traditional chemical cleaning products are expensive, TOXIC and less effective than Norwex |
I was very excited and proud to see the interest in Norwex at my friend Carrie's "Women's Expo" that she hosted last week. As always, Carrie threw a great event with fun, prizes and of course yummy nibblies and bevies! Thanks Carrie! Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not a salesperson and my approach as a Norwex consultant has always been as a teacher to share my love and passion for chemical-free and allergy-free living. Carrie's event was great because the guests were so interested in Norwex and had heard of it before.
The word is out....Norwex rocks!!!
The hot items were the mop (if you have hardwood floors you will LOVE the mop!), the Fall Dishpack (which I am recommending as a teacher gift for Christmas this year because it is such a great deal! and great bang for the buck), and the Fall Cleaning Pack (my favourite!).Norwex Superior Mop Package |

Another Reason why the Allergy Mom loves Norwex!
I had read previously that the Norwex Enviro cloth that I love for cleaning all surfaces in my home was able to prevent Cross-Contamination with Food Allergens. This was great news to hear but how could I know for sure?
Well friends, the PROOF IS IN THE POULTRY!!
Check out this video on you tube from a fellow Norwex Consultant that shows how the antibac microfiber Enviro cloth from Norwex eliminates chicken protein from a kitchen counter. This is huge news for us allergy moms!
What does this mean? It means that we are able to clean surfaces using these cloths so that they are safer for our Food Allergic Children. Remove proteins from milk, egg, nuts, etc. to prevent this type of exposure.

~From Tech Talk by Candi Bezte, Norwex Science & Technical Advisor
Norwex Mop Systems have been shown to be far more effective at removing bacteria from floor surfaces than other reusable mops. They are also extremely economical to use when compared to mops requiring disposable pads.

Norwex Mop Systems have been shown to be far more effective at removing bacteria from floor surfaces than other reusable mops. They are also extremely economical to use when compared to mops requiring disposable pads.
Do we really want to create more waste and spend more money every time we clean our floors??
This amazingly effecient and lightweight tool not only makes quick work of cleaning floors, it also turns a previously heavy-duty job into light work. No more buckets to fill, lift and dump and no more heavy mops to wring out. Did you know that the Norwex mop is even great for prepping walls prior to painting?!
Similar in effort to using a disposable mop, the Norwex system is far more economical...and no chemicals are used!
There truly can be no greener way to clean floors than using this incredible system.
The University of California Davis Medical Center found that the lifetime cost of using microfiber mops was 60% less and they could reduce chemical costs associated with mopping by 95% The microfiber mops also were found to save 20% in work effort per day! The tests also showed that microfiber was able to penetrate surface pores and remove dust better than traditional mops.
Traditional mopping reduced bacteria on the floor surface by 30%, while cleaning with a microfiber mop resulted in a 99.9% reduction in bacteria!
**From the Allergy Mom: I personally wasn't interested in trying this product as I had a similar "looking" microfiber mop in my closet that I didn't love....but when I signed on to sell Norwex I was able to purchase any item for 50% off so of course I chose one of the pricier Norwex products...the Superior Mop Package. Well I have to honestly say that this MOP IS AMAZING!!! It works so well on my hardwood floors and I cannot believe how easy it makes mopping! No streaks, minimal effort and my floors are beautiful. This mop works so well that my cleaning lady bought one for herself so that she didn't have to clean other people's homes with other mop systems. I know you would love this product!
Buy one today from our Mop Shop risk-free....Norwex promises satisfaction guaranteed!

Melissa Pearson

Norwex Laundry Detergent
This month I am recommending the Norwex Laundry Detergent to EVERYONE! I just finished washing all of my daughter's bedding (duvet cover, pillow cases, etc) after a nosebleed that wreaked havoc on her gorgeous bedding! I threw all of it in the wash with 15 ml of Norwex detergent and cold water....would you believe that ALL OF THE BLOOD IS GONE?!! I didn't use any stain remover or anything else!!! This laundry detergent is simply amazing! It lasts forever and is perfect for anyone with sensitive skin, eczema or allergies! The Norwex Laundry Detergent is also great for your clothes...it does not leave a residue like other detergents which means that your fabrics are not being coated with dulling detergent remnants after the wash. Another amazing fact about Norwex Laundry Detergent is it's odour-removal capabilities....Get the stink out of your laundry and your washer if you have a stinky front loader .....Norwex will eliminate the stink! Try it today and I guarantee you will not be disappointed!
