I recently wrote a post on skin care products and all the chemicals that I never knew existed or to be honest, probably just chose to ignore. I’m thankful that we’re becoming more informed as a society in general and learning that there are better options to choose from. Today I’m discussing how I’m working towards having a Chemical Free home.
About 10 years ago a friend of mine started selling Norwex. To support her, I attended a party at her house and bought a few products. At the time I wasn’t quite ready to commit to a chemical free home so truthfully, I bought a few items because it was the polite thing to do.
I purchased a few Enviro Cloths, a window cloth and the Dusting Mit. All 3 of these items proved themself right away. The Enviro cloths are the best I’ve ever tried. Having tried lots of different “micro fiber” type cloths, none of them came close to the quality. The window cloth has been a favourite as well. I haven’t had to buy window cleaner since I bought my first cloth and they clean my windows and mirrors so well! Finally, from my first batch of Norwex products, the dusting mit has also lived up to my expectations. It holds the dust in the mitten so I’m not spreading dust from one spot to the next. Dusting is complete in no time at all!
These 3 items were just the start of my journey to remove harsh chemicals from my home and since then I’ve started making more and more changes to try and have a Chemical Free home.
The Chemical Free Home
So, as I mentioned before, I’ve been learning more and more about chemicals and their harmful effects. My goal is to work towards removing as much of them as possible from our home.
My younger self used to love to filling our home with air fresheners, laundry accessories, soaps and candles. Just the other day I was chatting with a friend about this. I used to love all these “pretty” scents and now that I’ve removed them from our home, I’m actually really affected and bothered by them.
I recently received a package in the mail from a brand. It was filled with air fresheners, laundry sprays and more. The fragrance was so strong that I actually started getting a headache within minutes and had to put the products outside. Its interesting that once you rid your home from the harsh fragrances, you realize how much your body was affected from them.

My Favourite Norwex Products
So now that you’ve heard all the important details about what makes Norwex the best choice for your home, I thought I’d put together a round up of my favourite Norwex products and why I can smile while cleaning knowing I’m not causing more harm than good!
Window Cloth | Clean your window and mirrors in no time without the use of additional product. This saves time AND money!
Enviro Cloth | Cleans every surface in your home and vehicle with just water. Its amazing BacLock technology ensures that bacteria, smells, and mildew are not transferred. They actually say you could clean your toilet, and then go wash dishes….I’m not sure I’ll try that though. Have you?
Dusting Mit | You’ll have your dusting done in no time with this handy little mit that holds all the dust to ensure you’re not just spreading dust around the house!
Laundry Soap | I LOVE this product. It cleans my laundry but also can be used for so much more! I’ll add a little scoop to a bucket and clean floors, walls, and more! It works amazing and doesn’t leave a sticky residue
Cleaning Paste | Use this to clean a multitude of surfaces in your home. My favourite use is for my glass stove top
Superior Mop Collection | This amazing mop system has transformed my floor cleaning routine! I used to get down on my hands and knees for a thorough floor cleaning. My Norwex rep assured me that this mop system would do a good job and save my back and knees at the same time. I’m happy to report that I’m very impressed! The dry mop gets all the dust bunnies cleared away and then I finish up with the wet mop. No chemicals needed.
There are PLENTY of other great Norwex products and I can’t wait to keep adding to my collection!

This post is great motivation – I feel like I want to go greener, use less chemicals, etc – but never know exactly how to start. Def looking into these Norwex products!
I’ve never heard of Norwix before. I do agree that we rely far too much on antibacterial, overly scented everything. What sounds so awesome about these products is their reuseability!
I’m always open to new ways to keep my house clean and green!
These cleaning products look so awesome to use. I am always looking for ways to reduce waste when it comes to cleaning.
