Now, you may have noticed an absence up until now of natural toothpaste to complement all the lovely bamboo toothbrushes and natural floss in the shop!
Toothpaste is a very personal choice and I have chosen this one for the shop because out of all the ones I've tried over the last couple of months this is the one I am sticking with. As well as it ticking all my boxes with regards ingredients, ethos and packaging, it makes my teeth feel clean and fresh, (I actually reckon they are looking whiter too!) the texture is good and I quickly got used to the non foaming factor. I hope you agree, like I said a lot of it is down to personal taste!
Ok, so less about me and more about the toothpaste!:
This natural toothpaste by Georganics is blended with Active Charcoal from Coconut shells and organic English Peppermint Essential Oil. The oil has a warm, spicy, sweet licorice-like aroma whilst the charcoal powder acts as a cleansing and whitening agent. This combination creates a natural, mildly abrasive paste. The fluoride and SLS free formulation is an ideal replacement to commercial whitening toothpastes.

Tastes absolutely disgusting. Will not buy again.
