Environmentally-friendly Norwex Cleaning Paste is often referred to as “elbow-grease in a jar”. Use it for a variety of stubborn cleaning jobs.
Take a look in your cupboard and see how many of your purchased cleaners have only three active ingredients. The amazing Cleaning Paste contains: marble-flour, natural soap and traces of coconut oil. It took me seven years of regular use to finish my first container and I use it regularly! Norwex Cleaning Paste is perfect to use with the Spirisponge or EnviroCloth regularly to solve many of my toughest cleaning chores.

I like to think of it as “super-paste”; it cleans and polishes surfaces around your home. It removes the toughest of grime, without introducing unnecessary and dangerous products to your living environment. It is poison-, phosphate- and acid-free as well as easy on your skin and friendly on the environment. Not only that, it smells GREAT.
At a home presentation I did a while ago the host had a gas stove. Her kettle was tarnished from repeated exposure to natural gas flame. My host was explaining to her guests how she had tried everything to get it clean. So… with the Cleaning Paste and a Spirisponge, I effortlessly demonstrated how this amazing product WORKS!
The main testimonial from my customers is from cleaning their glass top stoves! It works amazing!!
At another presentation my host and her guests laughed that I wouldn’t be able to clean her sink. It was heavily stained from coffee and tea and she mentioned her plan of replacing the old sink at some point in the future. Within minutes, it was shiny and clean!
The pictures below shows the results:

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I thought I would share a few things I am thankful for. My husband who has been one of the driving forces for me behind this business, and my beautiful girls who inspire me to make this earth cleaner, for their future. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family who is as passionate about changing our world as I am.
That being said, when entertaining in our home this Monday, I hope to spend as much time possible with my family, NOT cleaning up dishes. This, of course, means less time doing the dinner clean-up. Daily we use the Norwex Kitchen Towels for drying our dishes and hands. I have never had a towel dry faster, and absorb spills more easily than this one. The towels are sold individually or in sets with a matching cloth.
At a Customer Appreciation Event in Smithers, B.C. a testimony was shared about these towels: It was Easter and her entire family of thirty guests were joining her family for dinner. The food was prepared, wine was poured and the table was set. But unfortunately the dishwasher was broken. With the recent purchase of two Norwex Kitchen Towels they dried all of the dishes; from the wine glasses and utensils to the once greasy turkey roasting pan. She was delighted with her new towels and told all who were there that they should also try them. Old dish towels that sort of did the job are a thing of the past, Norwex has come out with an absorbent solution!

The unique weave allows the Kitchen Cloth to tackle all your kitchen surfaces; they are super absorbent, quick-drying and non-abrasive. In addition, BacLock™ in the cloth – a micro silver antibacterial agent – goes to work to inhibit odors from bacteria, mold and mildew growth within the cloth. Best news? No more smelly cloths or towels! If that’s not something to be thankful for, I don’t know what is.
This fall the kitchen towels are available in new colors, including orchid, butter-cream, and my favorite, a rich and festive pomegranate red.
The towel and cloths set are available now in eight different color options. Mix and match to hang in your kitchen as dish towels and hand drying towels.
Did You Know?
Many products incorporate silver because of it’s antibacterial properties. There are silver antibacterial socks, silver soap, silver-lined curtains in hospitals, silver-lined bandages for treating burns and even silver toothbrushes.

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
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.
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.

Do you like systems and organization? I do! I encourage my customers to color-code the microfiber cloths in their home. When Norwex lovers are asked what is their favorite product, it is predominantly the EnviroCloth! This cloth literally cleans up everything and it works amazing… with only water, so there’s no harmful chemical residue left behind– just the real clean.
Since the cloths come in four colors, I have always color-coded our home and have taught my customers to do the same. It’s a simple system:
Redis our go-to kitchen-cloth. It’s used for 2-3 days to wipe down the: counters, stove, microwave, exterior of the fridge and interior plexiglass shelving, the table after each meal, finger prints on the dishwasher and watermarks on the facet and in the sink! This hard-working cloth absorbs spilled tomato sauce, burnt on food, spilled milk or grape juice. Because you cannot bleach your Norwex cloths, red is a great color to camouflage any accidental staining from your daily kitchen activities!
Blue is the designated color for any heavy cleaning project. It lives under the kitchen sink and is pulled out for, wiping the floor when unexpected spills happen, cleaning the very dirty patio furniture, wiping the BBQ or oven, detailing the car, or washing outdoor windows. This way, one cloth does all the extra dirty work, instead of potentially staining every cloth you own!
Greencloths are used to maintain our bathrooms. Years ago we would squeegee our shower, but inevitably the doors and walls still got very grungy. Now, after each shower we quickly wipe down the shower stall to prevent soap scum and mineral deposits. In 10 years since our family was first introduced to Norwex, we have not sprayed any toxic cleaning chemical in our shower. That said, I don’t expect my family to deep clean after each shower. So we do use DeScaler for maintaining the tub and floor weekly. One green EnviroCloth wipes up the shower walls, bathroom counter and mirror for a week. Take a cleaning moment and you won’t need a cleaning day!
Yellowcloths are used for cleaning the toilets. Norwex has an excellent cleaner for inside the toilets, but this cloth is used for detailing the porcelain and seat. It hangs on the plumbing under each bathroom sink. It’s always handy if needed.
Friday is Norwex laundry day at our home and with this cloth system it is very simple. After the cloths come out of the dryer, each cloth is put back where it belongs. Only the Red cloths are folded and returned to the kitchen drawer, the rest are all returned to be used as intended in their designated areas for another week… until they are laundered again.
At my shows everyone laughs when I ask, “Now what would you be thinking if you found a yellow cloth on my counter when you come over for coffee?” : ) See… the system works! Everything stays where it belongs! Simplicity my friends!

During my first pregnancy, after three years of marriage, my husband offered to clean the shower for the first time. He didn’t want me inhaling the strong fumes in the enclosed space of our shower stall. I realized then, if it wasn’t safe for me to use these products while I was pregnant, how could they be safe for me to use when I wasn’t? I had been cleaning regularly with the typical, department store products. I had an arsenal of cleaning products I become accustomed to cleaning with. I was using the same products my mom used to clean my childhood home.

It is often when children enter our homes that chemical awareness really kicks in. However, without knowing the alternatives we have, we continue to wash, wipe, and spray chemically laden products onto the surfaces that our children touch, lick, smell, and inhale everyday.
To this day, I have yet to hear a parent claim they would like to expose their children to a greater number of chemicals. However, we smile and take pictures of our babies kissing the bathroom mirror, licking our windows, and blowing bubbles in the bathwater. Have you ever watched your child eat food off of the counter and stopped to think; how did I clean that surface?
Health Canada reports that, “Household chemical products are among the top products responsible for injuries and deaths in children under the age of five years”.
“Not long ago scientists thought that the placenta shielded the umbilical cord blood… researchers at two major laboratories found an average of 200 industrial chemicals and pollutants in umbilical cord blood.” Read more… at Environmental Working Group.
It was to my great relief that Norwex offered products that would diminish our exposure to these cleaning products for our family’s future. I no longer have to worry about what I last sprayed on a surface, or what kind of chemicals my family will inhale when cleaning.
It delights me to be raising a generation that knows how to clean, without depending on harmful chemicals to get the job done. When our daughters join me for a weekend at a local Trade Show, they’ll tell the skeptical, potential customers that they do not recall anything being used in our home other than Norwex. They will often grab the mop and say, “our family has been using the same one since 2004!”.
Information is powerful. As long as there are stores full of cleaning chemicals, I have a job to do! I will educate others, one home at a time!
