A powerful and reliable staple for oral care.

I’ve been using this mouthwash as part of my morning routine, and the freshness is unmatched. It definitely has a strong "bite," but the results are worth it. It leaves my breath smelling great and my teeth feeling polished and clean. It’s a reliable product that I’ll definitely keep stocked in my bathroom cabinet.

You must have watered it down. Tastes weaker!

Original flavor tastes like water now! Why? I would pay more for the stronger version.

The packaging or bottling is the worst : Why to give such complex packing of the bottle that one needs to see youtube videos to open it :because of the packaging or the bottle cap opening strategy used by geniuses , i will discourage usage of it . It is not at all user friendly. Even scanner on the bottle is cleverly designed to avoid feedbacks :

Just get it

This flavor of mouthwash will clean the bad words out of your mouth. You will be gripping the sides of the sink while swishing it around, but by golly will your breath be fresh afterwards. A+

Customer service training required

The customer service section did not thoroughly investigate my order data, and she explained that there was no pickup data available, even though the data had already been processed for pickup. I made multiple trips to the store to pick it up competely despite being short on time. The product itseif has no problem.

Great for refreshing your breath

The scent is very strong. I use this twice a day everyday. The consistency is great. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. Mine was normal looking and brand new.

Refreshing and suitable for the whole family.

An excellent option for the whole family due to its large size. And it's super refreshing, perfect for everyday use. This allows you to include it in your routine and continue using it because of its excellent results.

Highly recommend

The taste isn't the best, but the way it makes your mouth & gums feel so refreshed, you move past the taste. The cap makes a perfect measuring cup. There is no mixing it comes ready to use. Also comes in alcohol free. Comes in different flavors as well. The original or mint are my favorite. Natural ingredients are used in this as well, so nothing harmful.

Does the job but It’s pure alcohol. Tastes like straight vodka. It’s good to help treat fungus on feet.
