I do love a clean house but I'm not into spending lots of money on cleaning products. I was hoping she was offering the secret to having the cleaning fairies to do it for me, but she showed me the next best thing.
Norwex (if like me you haven't heard of them) are a company that makes a cleaning range which has a range of micro fibre cloths and mostly relies on tap water to clean your home. The great thing about this is that is means less chemicals around the house.
At my party, Katrina showed me what the Enviro cloth could do for my windows. I have sliding glass doors which are constantly covered with grimy finger prints. For added impact, Katrina drew some lovely designs with lipstick on the glass. She armed herself with paper towel and Windex and I used the Enviro cloth with water, followed by the Window Cloth to polish. These cloths are amazing. The lipstick was no trouble for it and I was done way before Katrina (she used a million sprays of Windex and a stack of paper towel). Even days after she left, my glass (cleaned with the Enviro cloth) was so clean it looked like there was no glass at all.

I also got a Kitchen Dish Cloth. This one is used for the dishes and you can even do benches, dinner table and the high chair. I used to use a blue chux style cloth and there is a massive difference. I have a glass dinner table which used to make me cry every time I cleaned it. It would only look nice if I got windex and paper towel. Since I got the cloth all I am doing is wiping it down of food scraps and it is honestly sparkling. Even my hubby has noticed the difference.

My absolute favourite has to be the Bathroom Scrub Mitt. I have two bathrooms and a downstairs toilet and sink. So it usually takes ages to clean it all. Not with this Mitt. It has a textured side to get the soap scum off and a soft fluffy side to wipe up dust and other debris. I used to spray with chemicals, then scrub, the wipe with a cloth (to get the dust off, then get paper towel and dry it off so it was shiny. Now I use the scrub side, then the fluffy side (only with water), then I wring it out and use the fluffy side to mop up any excess water. It is so much easier and looks sparkly. This one is a special for party hosts though so you will need to book a party.

I recently got the Norwex mop with the wet and dry pads. I am loving it so far. The dry one picks up everything (much better than a broom). The wet pad is perfect for me as it just needs to be sprayed with water and then straight onto the floor. It is much easier than making up a mop bucket (so I can easily mop spills up straight away and it is not such an effort to mop the whole floor).

I got a some other products but those are my favourite. One of the other selling points for Norwex is the fact that the cloths are Antibac which means a cleaner home and they are also made of microfibres which helps to attract the dust and dirt.
If you are living in Sydney or Canberra and want a Norwex demonstration you can contact Katrina and she would love to show you these products. If you don't want to have a party, but want to try the products Norwex offers a 60 day money back guarantee. SO if you hate them (unlikely) you are not stuck with them and you get your $$$ back.
I hear that the best thing to do is to buy the home conversion kit. It is a little pricey but in the long run it saves you money (when you become addicted and keep calling your
Please also visit (and like) her Facebook page which you can find out more about the range and all the wonderful things they can do. You can also visit her website: https://katrinalawson.norwexbiz.com.au/
I have written this post because I have seriously been impressed by the range but I am also keen to help a friend out with her business venture. I may get a cloth or two out of it.....(wink, wink, Katrina??).
If you are not in Canberra you can contact another friend of mine Celia (celia.chew@gmail.com). She is based in the far north coast of NSW (around Byron Bay), or both Katrina and Celia can arrange postage to you.
Have you heard of Norwex? What do you think about it?
