More for Mom

Mother’s Day is all about pampering your Mom. She is most influential women in your life, she fed you, supported you and loved you the best she could.  Mother’s Day is about recognizing that… so why not gift her with softer skin by introducing her to the Norwex’s Body Mitt and Shower Gel?  The Body Mitt is double-sided.  One side is scrubby, and it gently exfoliates the skin and reveals soft healthy skin. The other side is soft and can be used with a small amount of Shower Gel. How does exfoliating work to enhance the look of our skin?  It works in a few ways, first, the gentle scrubbing action or exfoliating action deeply cleans the skin by removing toxins and impurities like, complexion-dulling dead skin cells and body product buildup.  Second, it leaves skin radiant and silky smooth with help of hydration by revealing new skin with essentials lipids and moisture to the skin topmost layer. All this and not one chemical peel or microbead required!  Your Mom will love her new skin.

The Body Mitt can be used to soften the skin so that you don’t need to use shaving cream.

I use just the body mitt [for shaving]. No shaving cream or anything. Works great. ~Alisha Stoklosa

Norwex’s Shower Gel is made of derivatives from fruit sugar, sweet pineapple, coconut and lemon to provide a citrus scent and gentle cleanse and awakening of the skin.  It also has aloe vera to nourish and moisturize the skin! Because it is organic and made of natural ingredients, no toxic chemicals are absorbed into the skin or washed down the drain. Good for Mom and good for the environment.

Every Mom could use some relaxation and relief from tension.  The Timeless Relaxation Rescue Gel is a simple and natural way to infuse a little bit of luxury into your Mom’s day, while giving her healthy benefits by relieving some stress. The unique roller-ball application brings a beautiful blend of natural and organic botanicals formulated to help her relax with a tingling sensation.  The natural botanical ingredients include: chamomile, menthol, camphor, devil’s claw and arnica montana extract.  The organic ingredients include: aloe vera, extra virgin olive oil, sage and rosemary.  Together they create a relaxing “getaway moment” to refresh and recharge you.  Apply by slowly waving the bottle under your nose and inhale, then roll the gel across your temples, neck and shoulders. Read more about this Relaxation Rescue Gel.  Ahhhhh. Happy Mother’s Day.

All About Dad

Father’s Day is all about appreciating your Dad and actually letting him know.  He is the one who always had your back, taught you lots of lessons, hung out with you and loved you the best he could.  This Father’s Day, give him a gift that he will appreciate and that might even teach him a lesson about the preserving the environment, while keeping his vehicle looking good, from you!  A favourite Norwex gift for Dad includes the car washing products.  Did you know that they recommend you should wash your vehicle once a week for optimum body protection from contaminates such as smog, salt, tree sap, bird droppings, dirt etc?  This might seem like a lot, but check out how easy Norwex makes it.  The two-sided, super-absorbent Cash Wash Mitt can clean your vehicle with only one bucket of water (and no cleaners/soap). The nubby chenille side and the sponge layer microfiber both collect and trap dirt and debris to reduce scratching and leave your car clean without chemical residue.  Clean your car in quarter sections, working from the top to the bottom (it is dirtier closest to the ground), then grab your Car Cloth and dry/polish your car.  The Car Cloth is a tightly-woven, extremely-fine-fibered cloth that will perfectly polish your entire car without scratching it.  Norwex’s car cleaning system leaves the body of your car ACTUALLY clean, without chemical residue left behind to attract contaminates, so your car will stay cleaner, longer, without a tax on our environment.  To tackle the inside of the car, the 3 in 1 Car Mitt with Baclock™ agent is a handy tool. It is ‘one size fits all’ and fits either hand comfortably.  It is made of a tightly woven microfiber and has a clever flip design to reveal 3 layers of clean microfiber to clean more surfaces.  It is made to reach tight areas and effectively remove dust and debris and can be used wet or dry.  What a great gift/lesson and opportunity for bonding time?!  Happy Father’s Day.

My friend bought the Car Wash Mitt and she’s so impressed with it!! She just told me it’s as shiny as when she uses wax! ~ Annik Aubin

Host a Norwex Presentation, get 5-STAR Rewards!

Host a Norwex Presentation, get 5-STAR Rewards!

Considering hosting a Norwex presentation in your home??? You will not be disappointed! Norwex is extremely generous; plus, spring is a time when EVERYONE is thinking about cleaning and organizing and they will have lots of reasons to attend your party. By introducing Norwex to your family and friends you will help equip them with the tools and training to clean their homes with environmentally-friendly or green clean methods that will improve their life.

I love describing Norwex’s host rewards program as a FIVE-STAR program. Why? Because it has FIVE ways to reward you. These 5 rewards are based on the number of buying guests, the amount of product sold and the number of new bookings. WE ALL HAVE TO CLEAN OUR HOMES… so why not invite your family and friends to learn how to clean quicker, easier and without using chemicals.  It will be the best party ever.May Host Rewards CDN

Let’s talk about the FIVE-STAR REWARDS:

When your party has a minimum of $600 in Subtotal A Sales, has 6 Buying Guests and 1 New Booking, you will receive a Collapsible Basket with Lid, an EnviroTowel and a Scrubby Corner EnviroCloth.  An $80 value!!!

This reward is fun because the more product sold, the more free product you receive and it starts at only $350 in sales.  I my experience an average Norwex party sells $500 (and that’s just the average)… so the rewards add up fast. For the month of May, Norwex is rewarding their hosts with lots of kitchen-related products… there is nothing better than new kitchen cloths and towels!!! Check out what is available (click on the highlighted product for more information and images):

Kitchen Scrub Cloth – This cloth is for all the stubborn baked-on, dried-on stains on your kitchen counters, floors, or in your pots, pans and bakeware. It is made of Norwex’s microfiber and is woven with a scrubby nylon that makes it tough enough to remove stubborn grime without scratching the surface.  This cloth is so tough you can even use it to remove soap scum in your bathroom!

Rectangular Silicone Bakeware Lid – A superior alternative for disposable plastic wrap and aluminum foil; keeps hot food hot longer and cold foods fresher longer; is oven-, microwave-, dishwasher- and fridge-safe; can create an airtight seal on any stainless steel, glass, plastic or ceramic container with a smooth rim and is made from food-safe silicone rubber!

Pink EnviroCloth with Baclock™ – Did you know why Norwex microfiber is superior?  One reason is because of its ability to remove up to 99% of bacteria from a surface when following the proper care and use instructions!!!  It is this feature that allows you only need water to clean your home and reduce your need for chemicals.  Why all the different colours?  It’s not just because individuals prefer different colours, its also so that you can colour coordinate your cleaning jobs.

All-Purpose Kitchen Cloth – Norwex’s classic weave cloth that is good for every job in the kitchen and can be used with or without soap.  It cleans kitchen surfaces, removes grease, scrubs pots and pans, removes sticky spots, tackles dirty appliances including your oven, is non-abrasive and absorbent.  It will help you reduce your need for paper towel and will make your kitchen sparkling and streak-free without chemicals.

SeaMist Kitchen Cloth with Baclock™ -Most traditional kitchen cloths not very absorbent, only move the bacteria from one surface to the next, require cleaning solution and they are often stinky because of the bacteria they harbour. Norwex Kitchen Cloths will completely clean your kitchen surfaces with only water!  They are highly absorbent; scratch-free and lint-free; made from superior microfiber that traps dirt, bacteria and debris; dries quickly; leaves surfaces streak-free and contains Baclock™ agent to inhibit bacteria growth in the cloth.

SeaMist Kitchen Towel with Baclock™ –  Constructed with the same superior microfiber as the Kitchen Cloth so it is just as absorbent -perfect for drying lots of Mother’s Day Brunch dishes- as the Kitchen Cloths.  It will not harbour bacteria, it dries quickly and matches perfectly with the above mentioned Kitchen Cloth.

I LOVE the Kitchen Towels! They dry so quickly and feel fresh even if I leave the same one hanging on my fridge handle for a week! When I used cotton towels, I had to change them at least once a day because after drying dishes and/or drying so many hands in a day, it would be soaking wet and dirty! ~ Jessica Matthes, USA

Ultra Power Plus Laundry Detergent I love this detergent!  It is pure clean without any fillers, perfumes, dyes, chorines or phosphates.  It is so concentrated you only need 1/3 of a scoop per load (twice that for conventional machines), it is so gentle you can use it to clean all your fabrics (even delicates) and it has no fillers to accumulate as build up in your washer, pumps, drain lines or septic tank.  It will save you money as well as be easy on your washer and the environment.  UPP is also good for other jobs around the house… read this post for UPP solutions.

Hand Cream – Norwex has a beautiful line of personal products, including the Hand Cream!  Norwex’s Hand Cream soothes dry, chapped skin on our hands and cuticles with natural emollients from grape seed oil, coconut oil, shea butter, vitamin E and organic aloe vera. Unlike many other hand creams, Norwex’s formula is free from SLS, SLES, parabens, phthalates, mineral oils, propylene glycol, synthetic dyes and animal-derived ingredients.  It has a mild scent, is twice certified organic, is perfect for the whole family and is even packaged in a new Polywood container that uses wood fibers from sustainable forestry, instead of plastic packaging.

Window Cloth with Baclock™ –  Pair this tightly-woven Norwex microfiber cloth with the EnviroCloth to clean all the surfaces in your home. Use dry… follow a damp EnviroCloth to quickly polish your surfaces.  Like the EnviroCloth it is quick-drying and has Baclock™ agent that is designed to inhibit bacterial odor, mold and/or mildew growth on within the cloth. It is a perfect alternative to disposable paper towels and will not leave any residue behind, (like chemicals or cotton fibers) keeping your surfaces cleaner, longer. Isn’t it amazing that you can get your stainless steel appliances, windows, countertops and mirrors all streak-free and shiny without the use of chemicals?

Veggie and Fruit Scrub Cloth – Our fruits and vegetables are sprayed with toxic treatments to protect it from pests and fungal attack and they are also preserved with a wax or oil substance.  The Veggie and Fruit Scrub Cloth will allow you to remove the coatings and the dirt from your produce.  It has a scrubby side for thicker-skinner produce like apples, carrots and potatoes and a soft side for the more delicate-skinned produce like tomatoes, lettuce and grapes.  Be sure to wash all your produce, even the ones you peel, to prevent contaminating the flesh of the produce as you remove the skin.  Clean produce is healthier for your family… it’s how it was intended.

Graphite Kitchen Cloth with Baclock™ – Just like the SeaMist Kitchen Cloth, only Graphite in colour.

Graphite Kitchen Towel with Baclock™ – Just like the SeaMist Kitchen Towel, only Graphite in colour.

Another Graphite Kitchen Towel with Baclock™ – Add another Graphite Kitchen Towel to your collection when $1000 in guest sales is reached at your party.

Dishwashing Liquid – Norwex Dishwashing Liquid is free from toxic ingredients, does a great job cleaning dishes, while being gentle on your skin and the environment.  It is has a natural citrus scent from the essential oil of Clementine, is biodegradable and free from phthalates, SLS, SLES and dyes.  Ever wonder why “phosphates” are so bad?  They are found in many dish soaps and they work to clean dishes, but they can create “dead zones” when we wash them down the drain and into the streams and rivers. They eventually make their way to the ocean where they feed algae and bacteria, which grown uncontrollably, consuming the majority of oxygen in the water causing the fish and other ocean life to suffer.*  Small changes in what we do, make a difference!

This reward is based off the number of guests exclusively!!  No booking is required and the amount of product sold is irrelevant!  The first reward is FREE SHIPPING!!! No one likes shipping costs, so it nice when you get shipping for FREE! The reward generously build from there…  Remember, anyone clear across the country can order from you!  Have a cousin out east, or a aunt on the island… I’ll send you a link to your party and they can shop and have the products delivered to their home!

This reward is fun!!!  As a host, write down your Norwex Wish List so that you will be ready for this reward.  Over and above the previous rewards, this reward gives you a percentage to buy whatever is on your wish list based on how much product was sold.  For example, if your party sells $550 dollars, you receive, $55 (or 10%) Free Host Dollars to spend.  Fun, right?!

I need to share that Norwex is the most generous than any other company I have ever seen or heard of in my life. My hosts are always overwhelmed and shocked by their ‘windfall’ or ‘jackpot’ of free product!  In April, one of my hosts had 11 buyings guests and received $814.67 of FREE Norwex product!!! When I submitted her party order on my Norwex website, they sent me this FABULOUS message:

This one is pretty simple….  Each New Booking = A FREE Window Cloth.

Take advantage of Norwex’s FIVE-STAR host rewards!!! Get together and connect with the ones you love and create the opportunity to educate them about how to better their lives by providing them with healthy, environmentally-friendly, superior tools to tackle their day-to-day cleaning needs.

What Gives You Joy?

What Gives You Joy?

I have said this countless times, but I need to say it again, I LOVE my job!  What I LOVE best about what I do, is that I am honoured to be able to make a difference – a life-changing difference – in people’s lives by offering natural cleaning products that work as an Norwex Independent Sales Consultant. Let me share what I mean… I recently met a new Norwex customer, a fitness instructor in the greater Edmonton area… this is what happened.

I contacted Delores last week in regarding “stinky feet / shoe” problem. I went to her place to grab a bottle of the Sportzyme & ended up chatting about other products. One thing I asked, “Does Norwex carry anything to clean glass showers?”

I’ve lived in my house for almost 9 years and I haven’t been able to see out of my shower in years. They are ‘clean’ (I have a serious OCD) BUT apparently not clean!!?? Also – my kitchen.  My stove has had odd water / burn stains on it for a while too. I just thought “this happens to a glass top… oh well.”
Delores gave me a bottle of the Descaler spray with a double-sided Bathroom Scrub Mitt as well as a container of the Cleaning Paste and SpiriSponge for my kitchen.
The first round in my shower left my glass clear but with some water stains, so I did a second round right away! My stove was also an instant revolution of clean! You all have no idea how embarrassed I am that people have come over and seen my ‘clean’ house … These pictures are my results!!
 Norwex Descaler & Bathroom Scrub Mitt
 Norwex Descaler & Bathroom Scrub Mitt
 Norwex Cleaning Paste & Spirisponge
  I am absolutely disgusted with the store bought products I have been using as long as I have owned my house (almost 9 years).
Norwex is going to be replacing EVERYTHING I have, cleaner wise, in my house. It smells great, feels fantastic and clearly WORKS! 
Thank you so much Delores for the view on how important simple products, like a daily household cleaner & cloth combination, can literally change a girl’s life!! I’ve been sweating for a couple hours this morning doing a massive house cleaning… because my clean house was actually far from clean!! ~ New Customer

It doesn’t get any better than this!!!!  I love finding new customers and help change their life for the better. Let me describe some of the products my new customer used and LOVED!

Descaler & Bathroom Scrub Mitt – The best way to remove “frosted glass” from your shower doors!  This natural descaler works to remove hard-water stains,  soap scum, rust stains, mineral stains etc.  It’s power comes from natural Glucuronic Acid coupled with Organic Orange Peel Extract and Sodium Gluconate to clean.  Simple spray on the surface, let sit for 5 minutes, wipe off with scrub mitt, rinse clean.

Cleaning Paste & SpiriSponge – It is “elbow grease in a jar.”  Together with a SpiriSponge, this natural paste cleaned the burnt on food off her stove top, leaving it shiny – like new.  The Cleaning Paste has only 3 active ingredients, including; Marble Flour, Natural Soap & traces of Coconut Oil.  From stove top, to stainless steel kitchen sink, to bathtubs, to lawn furniture, this long-lasting paste is versatile and effective for most surfaces in your home.

I LOVE living vicariously through others as they discover Norwex for the first time!!!  Honestly, people FREAK out about how amazing it is… it is not like products in the supermarket, they actually work, they don’t use chemicals, they save time, they are eco-friendly, and they do a superior job.  Norwex is worth FREAKING OUT about! It gives me such joy knowing that I can help people find solutions to real-life issues with clean, chemical-free products.  Educating people about Norwex never gets old… I LOVE watching people understand Norwex’s products and get excited about the possibility they bring.

I always feel so thankful for the opportunity to educate and teach people about Norwex… I believe it does have the power to change the world, one home at a time.  If this sounds like something that would bring you JOY, and you are interesting in joining my team as a consultant or are interested in hosting a Norwex party, contact me.
