Plastic Grocery Bags & Disposable Wipes Hurt the Environment
Let me tell you about a few alternative products that will reduce your exposure to chemicals and will help you save the environment.
The first product is a Reusable Grocery Bag with BacLock™ (only $6.99). Sounds like that has been done before, right? Not quite, Norwex’s Reusable Grocery Bag does not harbour bacteria. It makes sense, right? When you reuse an item, it tends to get dirty and with that dirty comes bacteria that can harm us. The Norwex Grocery Bag is handy like most other reusable bags, it is a generous size, it is light weight, it is hefty and strong and it is constructed with recycled materials. But how it isn’t like every other reusable bag is that it is constructed out of food-grade materials and has a BacLock™ lining designed to inhibit odors from bacteria, mold and mildew growth on the inside of the bag. When your Norwex Reusable Grocery Bag does get dirty, simply wipe it down with a well-wrung, flat-folded EnviroCloth and you will be good to go.
Hooray! That sounds like a perfect bag to bring groceries home in!

The second product is the Reusable Wet Wipes Bag. Such a great NEW idea that works together with the Norwex Travel Pack EnviroCloths. The Reusable Wet Wipes Bag is waterproof and has two pockets, the front for unused wet/dry clothes and a back pocket for used clothes. It is small enough to tuck in your purse, diaper bag or backpack. It is made from 100% cotton and is machine-washable. It is perfect to hold travel size clothes that we need for dirty hands and faces, dirty bums, sticky spots in your car, spot washing your shirt and anything else on the go.
How handy!
It may seem like a daunting task to give up baby wipes for good… but let me share a tried and true recipe for homemade wipes. These can be used for those messy jobs that require a disposable wipe. Back in 1999, when our oldest was born I was given this recipe and I used it exclusively for all three of our girls. I was introduced to Norwex once I was almost out of the diaper stage of life. That said, I do recommend using the Norwex Baby Body Pack for cleaning baby delicate skin in the bath, to wiping sensitive bottoms, to cleaning babies teething gums. They work remarkable!!
