Norwex products I don’t mention often!

I wanted to share with you guys about some of the Norwex products that I don’t talk about too often. I share so much about the EnviroCloth, mop system, Envirowand, etc. I think it’s time for some lesser shared products to shine in the spotlight and I promise you’ll love them if you give them a try!

Fragrance disc – This little guy is SUCH a great substitute for regular car air fresheners. I was honestly floored when I found out how many chemicals are in car air fresheners – OVER 100!! Holy cow! Including names like Formaldehyde, BHT, Acetyldehyde, and Fragrance (usually whenever you see “fragrance” as an ingredient, it’s an umbrella term for a huge blend of other chemicals and toxins). You can hang this guy over your rearview mirror and enjoy the refreshing scent of whatever essential oil you choose to put on it! Buy a few discs and have different scents for different times! Lavender for crazy long road trips to help calm everyone. Lemon & orange for a burst of energy! So many yummy options. The disc doesn’t come with any essential oils. If you’re in need of essential oils, Norwex offers a few AMAZING smelling blends that are perfect for the Fragrance disc!

Bath Mat – I always rave about our towels, and this guy is similar, just a slightly different purpose! Did you know bacteria thrives in wet environments like your bath mat that stays on the floor all day?! The Norwex bath mat is able to absorb up to 10 times its weight in water. It contains silver, which deactivates the icky odor causing bacteria. This bath mat keeps our bathroom floors dry, which is a pretty big feat with 6 kids!

Cutting board – We love our Norwex cutting board! This is a great way to reduce plastic in your kitchen – recycle your old cutting board and replace it with this awesome substitute! Regular plastic cutting boards stain and scuff easily from knives, this raises the chance of your plastic cutting board harboring bacteria in its little cuts and crevices. The Norwex cutting board is made from natural rice husks and is so strong and durable. Even with all the cooking we do in our family, our boards are still in tip top shape! One of my favorite parts about these boards is their food grade silicone grip ring, which allows the kiddos to assist in slicing in dicing fruits & veggies without worrying about the board sliding. 

Naturally Timeless Set – If you’ve been looking to start or switch your skin regimen, I totally recommend checking out the Naturally Timeless products! I don’t often share my love about these, but the love is there!! Before Naturally Timeless, I found it so difficult to find an anti-aging skin regimen that wasn’t riddled with toxins. Norwex’s products are a blend of botanical extracts, peptides and plant-based ingredients. Free of SLS, SLES, parabens, gluten, phthalates, artificial dyes and fragrances and animal-derived ingredients. This product quartet is formulated with eco-friendly ingredients that help moisturize, smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve clarity, and contour the skin for a healthier, more youthful appearance. The Naturally Timeless Set comes with four awesome products; Firming Facial Serum, Anti-Gravity Night Cream, Day cream, and Radiant Eye Cream which work together to hydrate, smooth, tone, firm and increase clarity and resiliency for a healthier, fresher complexion!

Get your home clean FASTER than ever!

It’s a fresh new year everyone! A wonderful time to start new things, chase dreams, and leave behind what isn’t helping us. Want to know something you can totally leave behind in 2018? Taking forever to get your house clean! I get it. Usually, cleaning takes time and effort. You have to pull out a different product for each job, run back and forth to the sink rinsing said product out of your sponge before adding another product, get on your knees, crawl around, do somersaults…okay, maybe not the last one but it’s exhausting!!! What if I told you I know how you can shave hours off of your time spent cleaning in 2019? Well…I CAN! I’m going to highlight 3 of my favorite Norwex products, specifically products that are the best TIME SAVERS! I totally believe with these 3 items, you can cut your cleaning time in half!

The Mop!!! This may very well be my favorite product ever created. It’s amazing how much time this saves. No longer do you need a bucket full of water & chemicals, no longer do you need to wring out the mop head, not with the Norwex mop system! With 6 kiddos running in and out all day long, I have constant messes be made. Muddy footprints, crumbs, scraps, dirt, etc. I can’t even imagine how many hours a day I’d be mopping, if it wasn’t for our Norwex mop. The thought of filling a bucket and going through that whole process every time the floor gets dirty is not appealing! The Norwex mop is so quick and easy, all you do is run the mop pad under water and do your thing!! One pad can almost always clean your floors without having to be rinsed, unless it’s a HUGE mess. So, no running back and forth rinsing and squeezing. So simple even the kids can do it! No chemicals. Fast. What’s not to love?! You’ll be shocked by how much time (and sanity) this product save you. It’s a real game changer.

EnviroWand – The EnviroWand is bendable and flexible to make dusting any space super simple! This guy can reach under couches and beds, fan blades, TVs, tops of dressers, desks, countertops, tables, any nook or cranny that you can imagine! Dust literally CLINGS to the two-sided chenille sleeve and doesn’t get spread all over the surface or drop down on the floor. This makes dusting a quick, easy chore…I almost don’t even want to call it a chore when you have the EnviroWand!! Gone are the days of whisping dust all over the house with your feather duster! You’ll be so pleased with the EnviroWand and how simple and FAST it makes dusting!

Window Cloth – If you don’t have a window cloth in your life…it’s time to change that! Cleaning windows will become a breeze! What sold me on this product was the complete lack of streaks on windows after use. I could NOT find anything that wouldn’t leave streaks or dust particles on my windows after wiping…until THIS! Just wipe windows with a damp EnviroCloth, then polish with the window cloth and they’ll seriously look just like new. I LOVE that this doesn’t require the use of any common chemical sprays, all natural cleaning here guys! 

Make 2019 a year you spend less time cleaning and more time doing things you LOVE! 

How to stop static clothes after winter washing!

Something that plagues most of us this time of year is the dry winter air! My kids are so fascinated by static electricity and how they can rub against something fabric and shock their siblings. While static electricity can be fun for kiddos, it is quite annoying when it disrupts the laundry process. How many of you go to grab clothes from the dryer to start folding and find they’re clinging together due to static electricity?! I know it was happening with our clothes ALL THE TIME during winters, until I started using…

DRYER BALLS! Even during the cold, dry winter months, these guys keep our clothes from clinging and make them super soft feeling, without having to use fabric softener. Also, they are high quality and last what seems like forever! I’ve had mine for years now, so it’s safe to say we’ve saved hundreds of dollars using dryer balls vs if we were to be using fabric softener. If you haven’t jumped on the dryer ball train yet, there’s no better time than now!!

Norwex Napkins – An amazing way to cut down on waste!

If you are familiar with Norwex, you know the products strive to promote waste reduction. An amazing way I’ve found that helped my family drastically reduce our paper waste is… Norwex Napkins!!

 

While paper products are biodegradable, just think how many trees we go through as a country to keep up with this habit of consumption and disposal! An average American consumes around 2,200 paper napkins per year. 2,200 napkins multiplied by approximately 315 million Americans = 693 BILLION napkins/year. Holy smokes!!

 

Here is how YOU can make a small change that has a HUGE impact. If every person used just ONE LESS napkin per day, 1 billion pounds of napkins could be saved from landfills. Yes, 1 billion pounds! If giving up paper napkins sounds overwhelming to you, and you dread having to wash cloth napkins after every meal, not to fear!! Norwex Napkins contain BacLock. This means that after each use, these guys self-sanitize because of the embedded microsilver – killing bacteria & mildew so it can’t reproduce. How great is that?! Of course you should wash them occasionally, but a good shake down works wonders for removing crumbs, AND they dry quickly should they need a quick run under the faucet. My family washes ours after a few uses.

I can’t leave out this awesome fact – each set of 4 Norwex Napkins is made from 5 recycled plastic bottles! Even though they’re made from recycled material, these napkins come in 2 colors that can be dressed up or down, creating the perfect addition to your family dinner table!

 

Two lovely colors + BACLOCK + getting the job done (better than paper in my opinion) makes these nifty napkins your perfect all around solution! I encourage you to give them a try! If you don’t want to quit paper napkins cold turkey, start by having one paper napkin-less meal per day…it can make a huge difference for our earth!
