Chapped Skin’s All-Season Cure

Chapped Skin’s All-Season Cure

Alright my friends… here’s a product you shouldn’t live without!  Norwex’s Shea Butter is fabulous for severely dry skin including: hands, feet, elbows, cuticles, scalp, and lips.  It’s all natural and organic ingredients include Avocado Oil as well as Vitamin E.

Harsh environmental elements such as the sun, wind, heat and cold can dry your skin.  Norwex Shea Butter is your much needed moisturizer.  Your skin will feel nourished and be protected against the elements as it soaks up this incredible moisturizing product!

What I also think is fabulous, are the ingredients which are not found in the bottle.  The Ecocert-certified Organic Shea Butter is free from:

  • GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms)
  • Parabens
  • Phenoxyethanol
  • Nanoparticles
  • Silicone
  • PEG (Polyethylene Glycol)
  • Synthetic perfumes and dyes
  • Animal-derived ingredients

Do you have a family member or friend with fly-away hair?  This product is also an excellent balm for taming dry or frizzy hair.

This product feels firm when removed from the jar, simply massage it into your hand to warm it up prior to use.

Did you know?

People have appreciated the healing properties of Shea Butter for centuries.  Its history can be traced back to ancient Egypt, where it was used to protect the hair and skin against the fierce effects of the sun and hot, dry desert winds.  It is derived from the nut of the Shea tree and melts at body temperature.

For those who are enduring cold weather for the entire winter (as many of us are), the cool temperatures and dry winter air are guaranteed to challenge our skin, leaving us with cracked hands and sore lips.  Not surprisingly our hands are one of the first parts of our bodies to show signs of aging.  You can combat the winter effects by soothing your hands with Shea Butter.  It’s a perfect year-round remedy!

**Allergy Alert:  Contains oil from the Shea Nut

Super Soft & Extra Gentle Baby Care

Super Soft & Extra Gentle Baby Care

Babies and kids have extra-soft skin and they deserve all of our extra loving care.  Norwex Microfiber cloths and towels are both super gentle and remarkably absorbent.

Many new moms have commented to me that they’ll swaddle their precious baby up in Norwex Hooded Towel after a bath, and by the time they are laying on the change table… they are totally dry!

Norwex Microfiber towels and cloths are quick-drying and embedded with the exclusive BacLock™ agent in the cloth that goes to work to self-purify and inhibit odors from bacteria, mold and mildew growth!

I have three Microfiber recommendations for your child’s skin:

  • Newborns:  The Baby Hooded Towel Set comes with a face cloth in the package.
  • Young Children: The Kids Towel which is vibrant apple green in colour with a sunshine yellow trim.
  • All Ages:  The Baby Body Pack includes a set of three face / body cloths which are extra gentle on skin.  These cloths are excellent for wiping up after meals, bath time, craft time or snack time.
    • These cloths are an excellent replacement for using wipes which contain toxic chemicals.
    • These cloths are also excellent for cleaning babies gums.

Somehow during the past 20 years, wiping a baby’s bottom has turned into a ‘disposable wipe event’.  Years ago, all moms used only cloths and then they laundered them and reused them.  Today we see more diaper rashes, skin conditions and allergies than ever before. Our skin is our largest organ, it is constantly absorbing that which it contacts.  Let’s protect our little ones’ fresh, absorbent, and innocent skin by wiping it with only a cloth and water.  Think twice before you rub it down with something you wouldn’t drink.

Speaking of baby skin, let’s talk about the body washes and lotions available.  Norwex has shopped the world over for you.  Their products come from over 12 different countries.  Our Body Lotion, Shower Gel and Hand Cream are sourced from Germany.  These products are fantastic and will work amazing on your babies and yourself.

Oops, I Ruined That Cloth…

Oops, I Ruined That Cloth…

My oldest sister was the first person to officially introduce me to Norwex, she blessed me with my first Window Cloth.  It didn’t come with instructions so, uninformed, I proceeded to use it with Windex.  I was under the impression that the cloth was intended to replace your paper towel…  So, I was terribly unimpressed with the job it did.  Between using it with a cleaning solution and laundering it incorrectly, I ruined the cloth and ultimately gave up.

However a year later, I watched my other sister who’s nine years older than me remove her makeup with a Body Pack cloth and water.  I told her jokingly that she looked my age and that I needed to learn the secrets of her skincare regimen, so I could stay looking younger than her.

She then explained she had originally purchased the Norwex Body Pack cloths for her teenage son for use on his acne-prone skin, but they seemed to serve a double purpose.  Not only did the cloth improve his teenage skin; it removed all of her makeup including the waterproof mascara! I was impressed… and I needed a set of these cloths!

Shortly after that encounter, I got my first-ever Body Pack cloth and this time I asked some questions to learn the care tips.

Proper care is very important to enjoy your cloths for years to come.  Here is a quote from a faithful customer of mine since 2006:

I follow Delores’ laundering instructions, and my cloths have always smelled fresh and clean.  No smelly cloths at my house.  ~ Michelle Kool, Edmonton, Alberta

To Properly Care for Your Microfiber:

  • Launder in the washing machine and dryer
    • The washing machine has a strong spin and rinse cycle to remove all of the excess soap from your cloths, so that no residue remains in the fibers.  The dryer perks up the ‘spokes’ in your microfiber, making them ready to work hard for you again.
  • Launder in hot water with a scent-free detergent
  • Lint-free laundry only!
    • The lint from your regular laundry will get stuck into the perky ‘spokes’ of the Norwex microfiber and will reduce the cloth’s effectiveness.  The best suggestion is to launder microfiber items separately.  If you are just starting your collection, and have only a few items, launder your cloths with high Lycra fitness clothing or other lint-free items.
  • No fabric softener or bleach
    • Do not use any chemicals with your Norwex products!  For a fabric softener alternative, try the Norwex trio of Fluff and Tumble Dryer Balls.  They will reduce your drying time by 25%.  If you love the scent of fabric softener, add some essential oils right to the wool dryer ball.
    • Some customers like to add a cap full of  Odour Eliminator into each washing machine load.  This enzyme-based product smells nice and removes any unwanted odours.

Usage:

  • Avoid the temptation to submerge your Enviro and Kitchen Cloths in the kitchen sink of soapy water.  Norwex cloths are only to be used with water, no soap.  Use one cloth in your kitchen for 2-3 days, then launder.
  • The Body Pack cloths are sold in a set of three.  One set of cloths is intended for one person, for a week.  Use a fresh cloth, every other day.
  • A lack of laundering and the overuse of your cloths will result in unpleasant odour.
