Unsure as to product registration. Norwex Mattress Cleaner. Suspected active ingredient: cocamidopropyl betaine (American Dermatology 2004 allergen of the year). I had a sunburn and used vinegar and aloevera for the burn as I had previously without issure to help the skin. Concurrent to that my mother sprayed Norwex Mattress Cleaner on the mattress, that I breathed and had to slept on. My sinuses, eye and forehead had swelling and the part I slept on was most painful. As I woke up with swelling in the mornings which I did from 1 bed. My sinuses were swollen for approximately 5 days. I walked into the room when the spray was being used and inhale it. Also, I slept in the bed for a couple nights before changing to a different bed, then the swelling went down after changing rooms, bedsheets, mattress. Anyways, I believe the sunburn & the Norwex Mattress Cleaner worked together to give me severe sinus inflamation and the second day my eye was more inflammed as I was sleeping with it down in the mattress, perhaps the microbes in the spray infected my eyes. The spray also has cocamidopropyl betaine (named 2004 allergen of the year by the American Dermatology Association (i.e. Wikipedia) The Norwex Mattress Spray doesn't put this on the bottle. The most concerning thing to me is that my mother uses this spray. She had sinus cancer and had her sinuses removed. There are a few cases of this as cancer as the (name) hospital 'reports'. My sinuses were severely swollen and this worries me as to the possible carcinogenic nature of this product; I don't believe my sinuses/eye would have swollen up w/ my aloe/vera or vinegar treatment of the sunburn alone. Also, I was dissapointed about the 'lack of labelling' on the Norway product, given the extreme allergen in the bottle. Norwex, I phoned but they haven't returned my call.
