I just got done with hosting a Norwex show. It was a lot of fun and also very informative. I did a fun hot chocolate bar which was really yummy. Here are a few things that stood out to me from the Norwex consultant Tricia, and my printable hot chocolate bar tags.
The first thing was the label on Lysol wipes. I know have used these a lot in the past. I have even given them to my kids to use to clean stuff. Never have I ever actually read the instructions before. I never noticed the not to be used by children, or keep out of reach of children before. I also didn't notice that in order to it to actually disinfect it has to stay wet for 10 minutes. To sanitize it's 30 seconds (I just pulled that off Lysols website) and to disinfect (especially the big ones like salmonella and H1N1) it has to remain wet for 10 minutes. Then it says to "rinse all food contact surfaces and toys with water after use." Why would they say to rinse it with water? Well to clean off the chemicals left over before you eat them, putting it bluntly. I found a Lysol container in the way back of my daughters bathroom that was dried out, but sure enough, that's what it said. Here is the picture I just took:
That just made their enviro cloth shine that much greater to me. I tried to find a good video on how well it works, and this is the best one I have found.
She also gave us a list of products that her niece's oncologist gave her of products not to use. I was amazed at the list. I'll have to get a copy of it to share. My 3 favorite products are the enviro cloth, the window cloth, and the dust mitt. You can buy all 3 for just under $50.00. These products are amazing. You can look up more about them here.
Only 24 hours left in my giveaway for and enviro cloth. Go check it out here.
I also did a hot chocolate party while I hosted the Norwex party. I felt really crafty and special. Click on the picture to download the tags I created for the hot chocolate bar. My only suggestion is printing it smaller, maybe 2 to a page. I thought mine came out a little big.
Thank you for your Norwex reviews. People can go overboard on what seems like a good idea. With H1N1 all the kids were bringing hand sanitizers to school attached to their backpacks. A kindergardner went up and down the cubbies testing the different scents everyone had and she fell down walking out to her dad. Something was absolutely offf and he took her from school direct to Dr who sent them to ER. It wasn't until bloodwork came back showing there was alcohol in her blood. Those sanitizers contain high amounts of alcohol, and s inhaling the alcohol sped it into her blood. She was just smelling all the different enticing scents like bubble gum and cotton candy. Our schools now have a requirement ... only alcohol free sanitizers can be in school.
Reply DeleteSo - I really appreciate your sharing the lysol info. Hardly anyone reads the instructions, or the warnings.
