About Me
Welcome Everyone!
I am a Norwex consultant, and my goal with this website is to educate the consumer about Norwex's products. I give an honest review of each product (I'm working my way through the catalogue), and I provide a link to my Norwex shopping website so you can purchase your Norwex products from the comfort of home.


Review a Norwex product!
I've given my honest opinion about the Norwex products that I've used. This blog, however, becomes far more helpful to everyone reading, when other Norwex users tell what they think of the products they've tried!
I would LOVE to hear your comments (positive & negative) about the products you've used. So if you've tried a Norwex product and would like to post a comment about it, good or bad, I invite you to do so!

Product Review - Norwex Cleaning Paste ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
★ ★ ★ ★ ★... Yes, here we have another 5 star Norwex Product!
Norwex Cleaning Paste - INGREDIENTS:
A little about the Norwex Cleaning Paste:
Norwex Cleaning Paste is an environmentally and skin-friendly cleaner that replaces all of your chemical abrasive cleaners, like Comet. This polishing agent cleans, polishes and protects in one application. It contains absolutely no poisons, phosphates or acids.
It can be used on surfaces and materials made of...
How to use: The cleaning paste is not creamy or shakable - it's hard and compact in the container. The best way that I've found to use it, is to take the "sharp" edge of the lid and scrape some of the paste into a little pile, so that you can dab a wet microfiber cloth into it. Rub the cleaning paste onto the surface you want to clean and polish. Rinse afterward with water, and dry with a clean enviro cloth. The result is a clean, shiny surface that lasts.
WARNING: While the Cleaning Paste is very gentle, you should always test on an inconspicuous surface if you are concerned about the possibility of scratching.
The Norwex Cleaning Paste is a must have for your bathroom (great for really stubborn soap scum, rust stains hard water spots and build up), and of course for your kitchen (sink, stove top, pots and pans, stainless steel appliances). I have found that the Norwex Cleaning Paste not only cleans my kitchen sink - getting rid of all the build up - but it also prevents the build from returning as quickly and my sink stays cleaner longer.
At first I thought that maybe I was just overly enthusiastic about Norwex, and therefore imaging this, so I decided to do a little experiment:
I cleaned one side of the sink with good ol' Comet, and the other side with the Norwex Cleaning Paste. Both did a great job of cleaning, but the test was "how long would the sink stay clean"? After about a week, it was clear that the Norwex Cleaning Paste did indeed help protect the surface of my sink from "holding onto grunge" - the Norwex side was cleaner after a week of use. I'm not sure which of the 4 ingredients is responsible for this lovely benefit - I'm thinking maybe the coconut oil???? But it doesn't really matter - the point is, it works and works very well!
I've had some customers say that they would love to try it, but at $28 for a small container, it's just too expensive. I thought the same thing before I bought it. Because the paste is so compact, there isn't the tendency to use too much for the job. I've had my present container for close to a year, and I still have over 3/4 left. It lasts far longer than it's store brand counterparts, and is so much better for your health - a very economical and effective purchase!

Product Review - Norwex Oven and Grill Cleaner ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
OVEN BEFORE.......
.....OVEN AFTER NORWEX OVEN and GRILL CLEANER!
.....OVEN AFTER NORWEX OVEN and GRILL CLEANER!
It's unfortunate, but these pictures don't really do justice to the disgusting state of my oven before the cleaning....the camera just wouldn't capture the full ickyness of it. This oven is older than me, and obviously doesn't have the "self-cleaning" feature of the newer models. (NOTE: the Norwex Oven Cleaner CAN be safely used in a self-cleaning oven - just don't use the self-cleaning heat and the Norwex Cleaner together!)
I'm a little embarassed to admit that I've only cleaned it 3 times in our 11 years of owning it! I have a very good reason though - I HATE using the toxic, corrosive, and stinky store brand oven cleaners, and would rather have a dirty oven than subject myself (and family) to Easy Off Oven Cleaner fumes. Standard oven cleaners contain lye, petroleum distillates, and glycol ethers. They are also usually sold in aerosol cans. These are horrible for our health and the environment. The chemicals found commonly in the standard oven cleaners are so toxic and caustic, they can cause burns to your eyes, mouth, throat, skin on contact - not really something that I want to be using in the place where I cook food for my family to eat! SCARY!
Even though my past experiences with the Norwex products have been great, I'm still always skeptical the first time I try a new Norwex product. With the Norwex Oven and Grill Cleaner I was REALLY skeptical! Really, how effective could a chemical free product be a removing years worth of burnt on food? Well, as it turns out, the Norwex Oven and Grill Cleaner did it BETTER and FASTER than any other store brand product I've tried - no joking here folks - I am thoroughly impressed with this Norwex product, and would recommend it to anyone with burnt on food problems!
Here are a couple of pictures of my favorite frying pan, that needed some TLC - this is a Paderno Pan, and what the pictures don't show is that the bottom of the pan is made up of hundreds of tiny grooved rings (kind of like a finger print). Once food has gotten in there and burnt on, it is impossible to scrub off, even with a spirinett!
Let's learn about this great product! This info comes directly from Norwex Head Office, but I've added my own experience in blue!

BEFORE
AFTER
Let's learn about this great product! This info comes directly from Norwex Head Office, but I've added my own experience in blue!
- Self scouring action means less scrubbing when you clean ovens, broilers, hoods, pots, pans and fryers
- Effectively removes baked-on fats, oils, grease, proteins and carbohydrate residues of animal and vegetable origin
- Produces a "super-cling" foam that penetrates throught the heaviest grease and baked-on foods.
- ODORLESS, so there is no fear of breathing harmful fumes! HOWEVER, I found that this does have a bit of a "spray-back" effect - there is a very fine mist in the air that lingers for a bit, and although it's non-toxic, it will cause you to cough and sputter and sneeze if you breathe it in! So I recommend either using a little mask or just holding your breath while spraying. It was also helpful to have the oven hood fan on while I was cleaning.
- Water-based, non-caustic cleaner safe for use on stainless steel, ceramic, chrome, Formica®, plastic, iron, aluminum, and painted surfaces.
- Bio-based, natural and biodegradable - this non-corrosive formula contains enzyme formulation.
- pH 9 creates an alkaline solution (non-acidic). Although it's non-corrosive, I still chose to wear gloves while cleaning. I have very sensitive hands, and didn't want to risk a reaction. So to my customers, I would also recommend latex/rubber glove use.
- Concentrated formula: Saves money - cost is only a fraction of most ready-to-use products. This is absolutely true! Although the price seems rather high at $38.99, the bottle will last for many applications. Because of the scary state of my oven, I decided to clean it twice. I also did numerous pots and pans with it, and I still have at least half of the bottle left.
(NOTE: although highly concentrated, the product CANNOT be diluted. It does not mix with water well, and loses its cleaning efficacy quickly when diluted.)
- Preheat oven to 100°F (38°C) and turn off before applying product. Pre-heating the srface will energize the microbes and enzymes to work faster. NOTE: Don't over heat your oven! I did accidentally, and when I sprayed the cleaner on, it evaporated on contact! Surprisingly it still worked well, but it worked much better when my oven wasn't too hot and the cleaner remained nice and wet on the surface!
- Apply undiluted Oven and Grill Cleaner to top of oven first, then to the sides, and lastly to the bottom.
- Allow cleaner to work for 5-10 minutes. If you've let it sit too long and it's dried, simply use a spray bottle with water and mist the surface again - it will make wiping up the mess much easier.
- Wipe with damp envirocloth and rinse thoroughly with potable water. Stubborn deposits may require more than one application and a scrub with a spirisponge or spirinett.
- After cleaning, heat oven to 200°F (95°C) for 10 minutes prior to use.
- While grill is warm, use spatula or flat blade to remove excess grease and food deposits.
- Apply undiluted Oven and Grill Cleaner onto the grill - allow to work for 5 minutes.
- Lightly scrub with a spirisponge, then rinse surface completely with water.
- After cleaning, heat grill to 200°F (95°C) for 10 minutes before using.

UPDATE - Christmas 2009 Norwex Fundraiser
WOW!!! I have never been so excited to check my email than than during the month of November - It was like Christmas morning every day! The "Improving Quality of Life - Let's Buy Livestock" event has been a HUGE success! I had a record breaking number of orders come in during the month of November 2009, and what's so fabulous is that EVERY PENNY OF THE PROCEEDS will go toward purchasing livestock for families in developing nations!
Your orders will improve the quality of life of needy families in ways that we can hardly wrap our minds around. The ability to earn an income, feed their families, send their children to school - this is what your money has gone towards this Christmas season if you ordered from www.norwexhealthycleaning.com.
Due to your overwhelming response to this fundraiser, I am THRILLED beyond words to tell you that the FULL AMOUNT of $1675, has been raised, in only ONE MONTH rather than 2 months! My customers are amazing! But the fundraising isn't over. For the month of December, ALL THE PROCEEDS from NorwexHealthyCleaning.com will go toward 2 newly added things:
DECEMBER - Clean Water and Essential Nutrition
![]() |
DECEMBER TOTAL = $1275 |
To be completely honest, I was very skeptical that we would be able to raise the initial goal of $1675 in a 2 month period, but my skepticism was blown out of the water, and I'm extremely hopeful that we will be able to see $1275 raised in the month of December!
Please help make this a Christmas to remember for many needy families who have so much less than we do. Purchase your Norwex from NorwexHealthyCleaning.com!
Improve Quality of Life - Let's Buy Livestock!
So this isn't a review of a Norwex product, but I'm soooo excited about it, I need to share, in the hopes that more people will know!
I want to announce something very special to me.....
This means that 40% of the purchase price of whatever you buy from my website (not including tax and shipping) will be going towards helping those less fortunate than ourselves.
This is the second year that we've done this, and last year $940 dollars were raised. This year I'm really hoping to WAY exceed last years amount! My goal for this year is $1675. I'm hoping to purchase;
As mentioned, the organization that I will be ordering the animals through is World Vision - a tremendously compassionate organization which helps to meet the basic life needs of thousands of the world's poor in various ways.
I would love it if you could pass this information on to all the Norwex lovers that you know, and encourage them to buy personal supplies, and Christmas gifts from norwexhealthycleaning.com Every purchase made for the next 2 months, will transform lives!

Produt Review - Norwex Bathroom Scrub Mitt ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
The Norwex Bathroom Scrub Mitt is quickly becoming one of my FAVORITE Norwex products, and although it's name doesn't indicate it, this little mitt works all over the house, not just in the bathroom!
The Norwex Bathroom Scrub Mitt is a hybrid of the Norwex Dusting Mitt and the Norwex Kitchen Scrub Cloth, in the form of a mitt - a PERFECT solution for quick and efficient cleaning.
The scrubby half of the mitt is great for removing stuck on soap scum, hard water build up (especially great with the Norwex Descaler), and general bathroom grungies. Although it feels like it might scratch, it won't - it is completely safe for all smooth surfaces (I still recommend doing a test scrub in an inconspicuous place before going crazy with it). When you're done getting the tough stuff off, you just flip the mitt, and the reverse side (a plush microfiber weave) will clean and disinfect your surfaces to a shine! Of course, all of this needs to be done with water.
When I clean my tub and shower, I use it sopping wet at first - for both the scrub side and the soft side - I find this fast and highly effective for getting it clean. When I'm done, I rinse and wring out the mitt, and then wipe over all the surfaces again with the damp soft side. This removes all the excess water so your tub and shower will dry without water marks or streaks.
As I mentioned earlier, this nifty mitt is not only for bathrooms - I use it all over the house, for general wiping. Although I love my Enviro Cloth, I find that the Bathroom Scrub Mitt is much faster and easier for wiping down light switches, door handles, dirty wall spots, cupboard fronts etc. - anything that little, sticky, food covered fingers like to touch! It stays on my hand very well (and I have little wee hands), and doesn't go all bunchy like the enviro cloths do when doing lots of little jobs. The scrubby side comes in handy for getting off dried on food bits from those light switches.....ewww!
A customer of mine informed me that the Bathroom Scrub Mitt is also REALLY great for cleaning floors:
I haven't tried it yet, (because it only gets done twice a year!), but I imagine that the scrub mitt would be great for cleaning the inside of you vehicles!!! Has anyone out there tried this, or have you found any other great uses for this product? I'd love to hear!

A customer of mine informed me that the Bathroom Scrub Mitt is also REALLY great for cleaning floors:
"I loved using the Bathroom Scrub Mitt for my bathtub, and sink, but loved it even more when I decided to use it to do a quick clean of the bathroom floor, (I didn't want to go to the trouble of pulling the mop out). It was so easy and incredibly effective. The scrubby side got up all the mystery spots that needed a little more elbow grease, and the plush microfiber side grabbed up all the dirt from the floor. It also made it easy to wash the baseboards and lower parts of the walls. I also appreciated that it didn't get all bunchy in my hand while I was cleaning....a mitt for washing the floor is a brilliant idea!" (Erin, Edmonton AB)This same customer mentioned another great feature about the Bathroom Scrub Mitt - it's very practical for anyone who suffers with arthritis in their hands because you don't have to hold it and bend your fingers/joints to use it - just slide you hand in and scrub! Logically then, the Norwex Dusting Mitt would also be an asset for arthritis sufferers!
I haven't tried it yet, (because it only gets done twice a year!), but I imagine that the scrub mitt would be great for cleaning the inside of you vehicles!!! Has anyone out there tried this, or have you found any other great uses for this product? I'd love to hear!
