For 27 years, product innovation has been part of our Norwex® DNA. Just like with our microfiber and household cleaning products, we’re an industry leader in the personal care arena, too, offering state-of-the-art products that not only work—they’re designed to keep your home, your family and the planet safer. Our Lysere™ collections offer the best of all worlds: transformative, ultra-clean formulations that are pure, natural and eco-friendly.

Two additions to the line offer an added benefit: the power of prebiotics and probiotic technology, also known as postbiotics.

Postbiotics in Lysere™ Moisture-Rich Body Lotion help to strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, while antioxidants in the formula help to neutralize free radicals. And new Lysere™ Prebiotic Deodorant contains odor-reducing prebiotics plus enzymes, antioxidants and charcoal to keep you fresh and protected.

While prebiotics and postbiotics are common buzz words in the food and supplement world, not as much has been written about their potency in personal care products. The skin has its own natural barrier that helps protect it against bacteria and environmental aggressors. By promoting the growth of friendly bacteria, both prebiotics and postbiotics are key in helping to restore skin’s natural acidic balance.

As counterintuitive as it sounds, the “good” bacteria on our skin are the first line of defense against harmful microbes. (Exactly why you want to avoid antibacterial soaps that remove all bacteria, good and bad.) It’s those skin-friendly fungi, bacteria and viruses that make up your microbiota—all 1.5 trillion of them—that help fight infections, thwart environmental damage, boost immunity, regulate pH levels and improve skin’s appearance.

Probiotics in new Lysere Moisture-Rich Body Lotion help protect the skin’s surface.

Why is this important? Everyday environmental aggressors like pollution, ultraviolet rays and harsh weather conditions can wreak havoc on skin. So can chemical-laden cleansers that cause dullness and dryness. Used topically, the postbiotics in Moisture-Rich Body Lotion go to work to nourish skin and help keep it glowing.

Other ingredients add to the efficacy of this soothing, hydrating lotion, clinically proven to provide 24 hours of moisturization. Nordic antioxidants including Sea Buckthorn Oil and organic Bearberry Leaf Extract help neutralize free radicals, while Argan Seed Oil, organic Grapeseed Oil and Olive Fruit Oil provide round-the-clock moisturization. Plus, the ultra-rich, naturally scented lotion goes on sheer and is suitable for all skin types.

Prebiotics in new Lysere Prebiotic Deodorant create the perfect environment for good bacteria to grow and flourish.

At the same time, the long-lasting, all-natural formula works with your skin’s complex ecosystem to fight body odor for up to 48 hours. Unlike conventional deodorants, which can be loaded with toxic chemicals—think aluminum, triclosan, parabens and diethanolamine—ours works in harmony with your skin’s natural barrier so it won’t clog pores, cause inflammation or disrupt the normal sweating process.

Sweat itself is odorless. What causes body odor is when sweat mingles with bacteria. Norwex’s revolutionary formula contains the prebiotics Inulin and Fructose to crowd out BO-causing bacteria, allowing the good variety to thrive.

This hard-working multitasker also contains enzymes to help neutralize odor-causing compounds, antioxidants to fight free radicals and charcoal to absorb sweat and other impurities. Aloe Vera softens and smooths skin, while Witch Hazel cools and refreshes. This skin-loving formula won’t leave stains or sticky residue. And because Norwex never adds artificial fragrances, it’s ideal for those with sensitive skin.

Probiotics also benefit oral health. Case in point: Our proven effective Lysere™ Probiotic Whitening Toothpaste.

Just like skin, it’s important to keep your mouth microbiome in balance. The problem occurs when bad bacteria—often caused by sugary foods or refined carbohydrates—get out of control and their negative properties come to light. Probiotic Whitening Toothpaste contains L. Paracasei, a probiotic proven to help inhibit the growth of decay-causing bacteria and promote overall oral health.

There’s even more to smile about. The triple-acting formula contains stain-fighting White Binchotan Charcoal to remove unhealthy buildup and gently whiten teeth. And minty essential oils work to naturally freshen breath.

At Norwex, we’re not only passionate about what goes into our personal care products. We care about what’s not included, too.

You’ll never find harmful chemicals, parabens, GMOs, phthalates or artificial dyes and fragrances in any of our products. Plus, Lysere Moisture-Rich Body Lotion and Prebiotic Deodorant are dermatologist- and allergy-tested and our Lysere Probiotic Whitening Toothpaste is free from fluoride, peroxide, microbeads and artificial flavors.

Our end goal: To keep sustainably minded products in your personal care regimen—and out of landfills.

Eco-friendly packaging options like post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic help reduce carbon footprint. We also forgo the use of synthetic chemicals, which can negatively impact surrounding ecosystems.
