Frequently Asked Questions

Norwex was founded in Norway in 1994. Norwex embodies the Norwegian environmentally friendly values. We believe by reducing harmful chemicals in our everyday lives, we are sharing a cleaner, safer way of living. For our homes, our families and our planet.

Norwex does business around the world. Our cleaning community consists of over 300,000 Consultants in 23 countries, all sharing a cleaner, safer way of living. I am located in the U.S., and service that market only.

Norwex is a direct sales company like Herbalife, Pampered Chef and Mary Kay. I am dedicated to meeting the needs of my customers through personal conversations and providing meaningful solutions one individual at a time.

No, Norwex products are sold through independent consultants like me. This form of sales allows us to truly understand what the customer needs and can provide recommendations to meet those needs.

We believe that all of us need to be more mindful of the presence of chemicals in our everyday lives and the potential impact these harmful chemicals can have on our health, environment, and planet. Our products makes it easy to reduce your chemical exposure with products that are not only safer but also do the job as good if not better than what you may be using now.

Most cosmetics and skin care products contain many chemicals that are absorbed by your skin. A daily skin care regiment can expose us to these chemicals repeatedly. Norwex skin care products are inspired by our Norwegian heritage and commitment to reducing harmful chemicals. Exclusive formulations and naturally derived ingredients – including plant-based Nordic antioxidants – support skin’s natural moisture barrier, honor its unique microbiome and help protect against environmental damage. The result? Radiant skin that’s hydrated, refreshed, and renewed.

There are several benefits you can earn by hosting an event. You can earn between 10 – 25% in Norwex credit, plus you could earn free shipping and 50% off items. Free shipping is reached when your event generates $250+ in purchases and a friend schedules their own event. And you earn 50% off an item for the first 3 events scheduled.

No, you do not need to host the traditional party. Some people love them as a social event, but for some they are seen as just more work to do. This is why I offer several other options to hosts. These include 30-minutes Zoom events, Facebook group events, and texting events. Let’s talk about what might work for you and come up with a plan.

Yes, some people plan to host 2 or 3 times a year. Others just host once.

Consultants receive a 35% discount or commission on all products. Also, as a business, you can grow your customer base over time. It’s your business and can take it as fast or slow as you like.

Yes, absolutely! The 35% off you will receive is a fantastic deal. However, it is important to remember that you need to purchase a total of $250 in total retail in any 6-month period to retain that benefit. I can explain this further if you are interested.

Your benefits start immediately.

Not at all. The entire process is done online and takes only a few minutes. You can select our Standard Starter Kit or choose from a rotating choice of kit options. You will want to review the options before starting the process. I can help with that so you can make the best choice.

The primary risk would be not having enough in sales over time to keep your benefits as a consultant.

If you chose the Standard Starter Kit when you joined and did not achieve earning the kit for free, you would have to pay for the kit.

This varies depending on the options available at the time you join. On average 54% of U.S. new Consultants have earned the Standard Starter Kit for free. The best course of action is to discuss your goals so you can be better prepared to make the choice that’s right for you.
