I used this whitening toothpaste for about a week. It really worked. I was surprised when it worked because a lot of recipes for natural things don't work as well or at all. The texture and taste of the toothpaste is definitely different from anything have tasted before. Annika has been using the second recipe for a few weeks now. She believes that the toothpaste doesn't taste the best, but it definitely works.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons baking soda
- 1 tablespoon dried, finely ground sage leaf
- Can add water for a consistency you want
- You can add essential oils to flavor it
Alternate recipe
- fill a small container 3/4 of the way with baking soda
- add enough water to make it into a thick paste
- add a small amount of salt
- add a small amount of peppermint extract
I got this idea and parts of the recipe from:
