Who doesn't want whiter teeth? Whiter teeth without sensitivity and a chunk of your change? Yes, please! Black and Whitening Toothpaste packs a punch, you'll get whiter teeth and a crazy clean mouth by adding activated coconut charcoal and Peppermint Essential Oil to the anti-dentist DIY toothpaste that I just love, love, LOVE. This paste is easy to make but beware, there is a learning curve to using black paste - it can get messy. Stick with me, I'll share a few tips at the end to keep things tidy, the results are worth the extra steps.

You may have seen recipes online for an activated charcoal toothpaste but mine is a bit different. I go lighter on the activated coconut charcoal, blend it (carefully) with a readymade natural toothpaste and add a few drops of an essential oil like Peppermint, it's minty fresh and anti-microbial. I prefer an all in one whitening/cleaning toothpaste that's effective and affordable that I can use 2 to 3x a week. I alternate with the anti-dentist DIY Toothpaste found here.
I suggest blending up 2 oz of Black and Whitening Toothpaste at a time and storing in an empty Camp Wander Salve Jar, I prefer glass over plastic whenever possible especially when essential oils are involved. You could also use a 4 oz mason jar or even a clean baby food jar, simply adjust amounts accordingly.
