Norwex Crystal Deodorant

                                    
So where else can you get a deodorant that lasts for a full year?
The Norwex Crystal Deodorant is made from
 Mineral Salts and is hypoallergenic, non-staining and non-sticky.  It stops
odour causing bacteria, but does not stop perspiration.

The directions for use provided from Norwex
are to Moisten the top of the stone and use on the under arms, under the breasts or feet.

When using, try not to get the stone wet close to the base as it can dissolve and fall off the base.  Rinse under water before replacing the lid.

I find that the Crystal Deodorant works extremely well.  It does not clog up the pores to prevent perspiration and is fragrance free.  It also works well feet both in runners and in work boots.

The only thing I disagree with is the method of application.  I think you should apply the stone to the wet body after getting out of the shower instead of getting the stone wet.  It works just as well, rather than have water dripping down into the base of the container.  Also, after you rinse the stone, pat it dry in your towel before standing it upright and replacing the lid.

I learned this the hard way by letting the base become wet after rinsing it.  The whole stone dropped out and crystalized when it hit the floor.  The second one has lasted about a full year now and everyone in the house has had their own for the same period of time.  (No - we don't share!)  We're selfish that way.

How does it work?

Your perspiration, when it first leaves your body is sterile and odorless.  When it comes in contact with the bacteria on your skin, the bacteria multiplies and it's the bacteria that actually causes the odour.  The mineral salts deodorant stone leaves a thin film of the salts on your skin and the bacteria cannot live in the mineral salts environment.  You will not smell at all.  It works better than cover-up deodorants.

How long will it last?

Since only a very thin film of mineral salts is used each time you put it on, one of our mineral stones should last for a year under normal use.  It is a huge money-saver over commercial deodorants.

Will it stain the under arms of my clothing?

Absolutely not!  Those days are long gone.The mineral salts stone will not stain or leave any white residue on your clothing at all.  No perfume smell and it dries quickly.

The Mineral Salts Deodorant Stone does not contain toxic chemicals, carcinogens or aluminum that are typically found in national brands found in most stores.  There is a growing controversy over whether aluminum compounds cause breast cancer and Aszheimer's.  It is, however, documented that the known carcinogens and toxic chemicals in national brands of deodorants can cause cancer and other debilitating diseases.  Deodorant is particularly dangerous due to the fact that it's worn constantly and these highly toxic chemicals are absorbed directly into the skin.

An added bonus to this little stone is that is effective when applied to mosquito bites, shaving rash/razor burns and other mild skin irritations. What more could you want?

Antibac Body Pack-Norwex Product Review



The purpose of these cloths is to cleanse your face and body without the use of chemicals.  The extremely fine cloth (ten times finer than silk) will clean skin more deeply and thoroughly than any other material.  The fibers are so fine that they bind grease molecules, remove all make-up and dry cells from your skin.  No soaps, abrasive alcohol or cleaning tonic is needed; use only water.

Fantastic to use after shaving, especially if ingrown hairs or a rash are issues.  It helps remove dead skin cells and bacteria from the skin's surface, thereby reducing the likelihood of follicles becoming infected and inflamed.  Follow facial cleansing with our Face and Neck Gel is the perfect post-skin cleansing product.

These cloths also exfoliate your skin; which removes dead skin cells and leaves skin clearer and brighter.  Exfoliating is a major part of keeping skin blemish-free because bacteria gets trapped under your dead skin and if you don't remove it regularly it will cause breakouts. 

Exfoliation helps speed up the process of new skin turnover, removing the thinnest and outermost layer of skin consisting of dead skin cells.  Dead skin cells leave a dull layer and lifeless appearance on the skin.  When we are young, our body produces new skin cells at a faster rate.

Exfoliation increases lymph and blood circulation which aids detoxification of our skin, the largest organ of elimination.  Light pressure to the skin is calming to the nervous system and will encourage new growth of skin cells.

Skin is replaced on the body every few weeks and there are dead skin cells, soap, oils, moisturizers and tanning products on your skin's surface most o the time.  The new breakthrough in ultra-fine fiber technology enables you to clean your skin deeply and thoroughly with only water.  The Body Cloth is a natural way to clean skin, remove make-up and exfoliate.

HOW TO USE:

For dry or sensitive skin including around the eye area, leave moisture in the cloth.  For oily skin or for a deeper exfoliation, wring the cloth out well prior to use.  The more water in the cloth, the less it will remove oils and exfoliate.  The less water in the cloth, the more it will remove oils and exfoliate.

Step 1:  Wet face and remove make-up with a damp Body Cloth
Step 2:  Rinse under warm Water
Step 3:  Use other side of cloth to continue cleaning face or body
Step 4:  Rinse in warm water and hang to dry.

For managing acne, use a fresh cloth each day.  Click here to read "Acne is a 4 letter Word"

This unique new material is a revolution in hair and cosmetic skin care.  With the Body Pack cloth's ultra-soft texture you will get a better result in a natural and non-abrasive way.  The extremely fine material (ten times finer than silk) will clean skin more deeply and thoroughly than any other material.  The fibers are so fine that they bind grease molecules, remove all make-up and dry cells from your skin.  No soaps, abrasive alcohol or cleaning tonic required; use only water.     back

Product Review - Norwex Ultra Plus Laundry Detergent


I absolutely love going to markets and trade shows with this product!  We make up samples to hand out to all the customers.  One scoop of soap in a little plastic bag all tied up with a nice ribbon.  Each scoop is two tablespoons of soap.

As customers approach the table, we ask them if they have a top-load or a front-load washer.  For a top-load washer, you use 1 scoop of detergent per load, ie: one sample pack.  But for a front-load washer, you only use 1/2 tsp. of laundry detergent!  Therefore,  the sample pack we are handing them will actually do 8 loads of laundry!

It's really funny to watch the look on their faces and also how many times we have to repeat it until they actually believe that we aren't totally confused.

You see, the Norwex Ultra Power Plus Laundry Detergent is a highly concentrated super stain removing powder that is biodegradable and contains no perfume or fillers.  It is gentle enough for newborns laundry or people with sensitive skin or eczema.  A 1kg. bag currently costing $20.99 plus tax will do up to 40 loads of laundry in a top-loading washing machine. (double that if you use the magnet ball as you use only 1/2 the amount of detergent)  NB:  The magnet ball can't be used in front-loading machines.

For a front-loading washing-machine using only 1/2 tsp. per load, that same 1kg. bag will do approximately 320 loads of laundry. Just toss it right in on top of your clothes instead of putting in through the dispenser.  The amount is so minute that it doesn't even make it down through the dispensing system.

The Ultra Power Plus Laundry Detergent is:
  • Safe for High Efficiency machines (please follow your machine's warranty)
  • Low-sudsing, scent-free, biodegradable
  • Super stain removing powder, whitens whites, brightens colors and cuts grease and grime on clothes.
  • Has optical brighteners and color enhancers
  • Contains no fillers or perfumes, so is safe for newborns and people with sensitive skin or allergies
  • Excellent Stain remover when mixed as a paste and/or a spray-on solution
Note:  No fillers means less wear, fading and pilling of clothes.  There is no residue left on the clothes so that they will not attract dirt as quickly as before.  It also decreases clogs in the machine's drains as well due to the absence of fillers.

Lately I noticed that I seemed to be going through a lot of detergent but finally nailed the culprit.
  Our grandson had moved in with us a few months ago and I actually caught him putting two scoops of detergent in with a load of his laundry.  Shame, Shame, Shame - I even use a Magnet Ball!

Despite his protests, I just couldn't see fit to ban him from the laundry room so we'll just have to keep him on the training program.  Oh well.....

This is definitely great Laundry Detergent.  Give your old detergent, fabric softener and dryer sheets to someone you really don't like and go totally healthy and green in your laundry room!

Norwex Dryer Balls - Product Review

SO DO NORWEX DRYER BALLS WORK?            
Absolutely!  But when it comes right down to it, you can use any brand of dryer balls you like as long as they are cylindrical in shape.  The unique design of the Norwex Dryer Balls lift and separates the laundry while softening the fabrics.  The round dryer balls that you normally see on the shelves simply bang and thump around in the dryer and are totally ineffective. 

Norwex explains the concept of the cylindrical shape of the dryer balls as "creating a Centrifical force that lifts and separates clothes, allowing air to flow more efficiently and reducing drying time. My colleagues claim that using dryer balls reduces the drying time of a load of laundry by 25 percent.  I've found the number to be more around 15 percent.  Basically, I tell my customers that if they still have static using the dryer balls that they are drying their clothes for too long. 

The real bonus of using dryer balls is getting rid of both the fabric softener and dryer sheets permanently.  Not only are they expensive to buy, but these are two of the most toxic chemicals you will find in your household.  Click here to read more.

The dryer balls are non-toxic, allergy-free and safe on all fabrics.  Because they lift and separate the clothes during drying, they soften and require less ironing. In areas with cold winters the dryer balls have to removed from the dryer after each load as the cold air from the outside vent
could crack them.  They can, however, remain in the dryer from spring to fall.

For best results, use with Norwex Ultra Power Plus Laundry Detergent.  It is highly concentrated and uses only 2 tablespoons a load for a top-loading washer and 1/2 tsp. for a front-loading washer!  If used with the Norwex Magnet Ball, you use only 1 tablespoon for a top-load washer.
Unfortunately, you can't use the magnet ball in the HE washers - it's too heavy.  Of course, you could always use the door for a basketball hoop later! :-)                                             back
