Hammastahnan kaveriksi tilasin suuveden. Ensinäkemältä pullon pieni koko arvelutti, mutta kun luin käyttöohjeet ja kokeilin, niin mieleni muuttui. Tiivistettä laitetaan pieneen vesimäärään 5 tippaa kerrallaan, joten pieni pullo riittää pitkään, on helppo pitää mukana - ja on ekologinen!
I ordered something else too from GreenDeal besides of deodorant. Even if I still like my tooth soap (and my dentist had nothing to notice about, except that I have great teeth), I wanted "normal" tooth paste for a change and to take with me when I am travelling all the time. This leaves stronger fresh taste than Lavera's paste I had earlier, and it is pretty good otherwise too - but this includes one bad thing - glycerin. My theory is that glycerin as a humectant is the thing that causes discolouration of the teeth when you drink coffee, tea, wine etc., because colours from those drinks stuck to the glycerin which stuck to your teeth. I haven't had those problems since I started to use tooth soap.
I ordered mouth water too. I was sceptic first because of the small size of the bottle, but when I read instructions and tried it, I changed my mind. You only need 5 drops of that stuff using with small amount of water, so little bottle will last long time, it is easy to take with you - and it is ecological too!
Nice that you give us updates about your bio discoveries, Sini!
VastaaPoistaI have been using my tooth powder for 3 years already, and I am content about it but, yes, it's nice from time to time to change the products( they can inspire us to add something different to our homemade products).
That mouth water sound interesting!
Regarding the deo: haven't you found a homemade version which suits you?
I use baking soda + coconut oil mix as deodorant sometimes, and that works much better than store-bought organic deos. I've just read so many warnings about using baking soda, that I don't want to use it all the time.
PoistaTiivistetty suuvesi on aika hyvä idea! Itse olen huomannut että en kaipaa suuvettä jos vaan jaksan tehdä oil pullingia ja laitan sekaan tipan piparminttuöljyä. Mutta matkoilla suuvesi voisi olla paikallaan.
VastaaPoistaMiulla on jäänyt oil pulling tosi pitkäksi aikaa kiireen ja väsymyksen takia tekemättä, vaikka se tosi hyvä juttu onkin. Tuo piparminttuöljy onkin hyvä idea,pitää kokeilla sitä! :)
PoistaMinä olen tehnnyt oil pullingin illalla samalla kun olen sängyssä katsellut telkkaria. Mielestäni oli aika hyvä vinkki Wellness Maman sivulla että sulattaa öljyn ja sekoittaa jotain eteeristä öljyä joukkoon. Sitten kaataa pieniin muotteihin niin saa pieniä oil pulling "karkkeja" joita sitten voi vaan ottaa jääkaapista.
PoistaMie en vain pysty odottamaan, että öljy sulaa suussa, on pakko sulattaa se ensin...jostain syystä saa oksennusrefleksin aikaiseksi. Mutta ehkä se mintunmakuisena ei tekisi sitä...?
PoistaDoes your tooth soap taste like soap? I mean, I believe it does,but how do you put up with it? What if you swallow it accidentally? Does it feel like eating soap? Honestly,I've never tried anything else, but classic tooth paste, in that field,I'm totally commercial addict!
VastaaPoistaYes, tooth soap tastes like soap. I brush wet tooth brush to the soap and then wash my teeth normally. There is not as much foam as using regular tooth paste, so there is not big risk to swallow soap. When I'm washing with soap my teeth feels more clean more long time, than with tooth paste.
PoistaI have few plans for new tooth soap, but they must wait for a while...
