5 Fancy Toothpastes That Will Make You Excited to Brush Your Teeth
Many of us have been there before: comfortable under the covers, snuggling up to Netflix, getting ready to doze off, when the panic suddenly hits us — we forgot to brush our teeth. So begrudgingly to the bathroom we go, standing in front of the sink in a zombie daze.
Toothpaste and brushing aren't exactly synonymous with "excitement," and it can sometimes feel like an action done more out of obligation than desire. However, as I have gotten older, I have realized just how important it is to keep your mouth feeling and looking its best.
There is an important link between your oral hygiene and your overall health, and brushing your teeth may not just mean having a clean mouth but also having a healthier heart and body. Crazy stuff, right?
But in 2018, your toothpaste options aren't just limited to pasty whitening formula or classic mint; there is a whole world of fancier toothpaste choices out there. These five toothpastes are sure to add some oomph to your daily brushing experience . . . because don't you want a smile as dazzling as Drake's?
Boka Ela Mint Toothpaste
Boka's Ela Mint Toothpaste ($7) not only tastes great, but is also great for your body. Made with nano-hydroxyapatite, a NASA-developed, non-toxic ingredient that is safer and more effective than fluoride, Boka works with our bodies, not against them. In the instance that you are looking to upgrade to a fancier toothbrush, too, their electric Boka Brush ($75) is a winner.
Davids Premium Natural Toothpaste
Packing natural ingredients rather than harsh chemicals, Davids Premium Natural Toothpaste ($8) and its calming minty flavor will leave your mouth feeling wonderfully fresh. Each toothpaste also comes with a handy tube key, which is perfect for squeezing out every last drop!
Aesop Wasabi Toothpaste
Made from sea buckthorn to calm gum aggravation and cardamom and wasabi japonica to help maintain fresh breath, Aesop's Wasabi Toothpaste ($17) will leave your mouth feeling squeaky clean. And don't worry, it isn't crazy spicy.
Lebon Tropical Crush Toothpaste
I feel like a royal trumpet fanfare should be playing whenever I unbox a Lebon toothpaste. This is because Lebon makes eco-friendly natural toothpastes that you'll want to use and have on display, too. Complete with gorgeous packaging, Lebon's Tropical Crush Toothpaste ($21) will not only make you feel like royalty, but also look amazing on your shelf.
Marvis Rambas Toothpaste
If you are looking for a wide array of interesting flavored toothpastes to try then look no further. From jasmin to ginger, amarelli licorice to cinnamon, Marvis will have you hooked. The limited edition Marvis Rambas Toothpaste ($15), which combines ripe peach, sweet pineapple, and Alphonso mango, is a personal favorite.
