Shop Green and Get You Eco Friendly Bamboo Toothbrush and Toothpaste over at Colgate Shopee Mall

It has been more than a couple of years when people have started to be more practical, to embrace minimalism and to be eco-conscious in their ways. But these are not just trends, it is a lifestyle change. When we truly commit to these, we can actually help save Mother Earth by reducing our carbon footprint in small ways. 

I have already converted to a bamboo toothbrush a year ago. Bamboo toothbrushes are great cause you know that for the most part, it is biodegradable which in turn lessens our plastic waste. I am so happy to see that I can get a worthy replacement for this with Colgate's sale over at their Shopee Mall store. Colgate is offering up to 30% off on its selected eco-friendly products, and one of them is their Bamboo Toothbrush! 

Colgate is up for eco-friendlier options, which you can see with their Colgate Naturals. 

This is their latest line of toothpaste that's organic, vegan and gluten-free with no preservatives, artificial flavors, sweeteners or colors.

You have a couple of choices for their toothpastes- Colgate Naturals Himalayan Salt and Turmeric. Both of these offer amazing benefits for your teeth!

Himalayan Salt is my go to because it feels and tastes the most familiar to me. I am sure we have all used gargling with salt to kill most of the bacteria in our mouths, especially when we have sores or tooth aches. The added benefit of Himalayan salt in our toothpaste is that it assists in removing bacteria from the teeth and gums, which helps in preventing the buildup of plaque and tartar.

Turmeric on the other hand may seem a bit out of the box, but when you think about it- it makes sense. According to studies, turmeric possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidants, and antibacterial properties and can prevent and treat gingivitis. Colgate Naturals Turmeric can definitely help improve gum health, remove plaque and bacteria. The turmeric will not spice up your smile but can be beneficial for your oral health. 

Colgate Naturals has two types of toothbrushes up on hand! One is their Colgate RecyClean - a new and first-ever toothbrush with a 100% recycled plastic handle made with food grade recycled plastic. It’s designed for that deep clean and compact head for better reach plus it uses 100% plant-based nylon bristles. You can get this now at 12% off or for only 212 Php. My husband loves using this one just because he doesn't like to do the extra care that a bamboo toothbrush needs- especially after using.

Colgate's Natural Bamboo Charcoal Toothbrush is currently 9% off (133 Php). The handle is made from 100% natural, biodegradable bamboo coated in beeswax and the bristles are charcoal-infused floss tips. I love the tips too because we all know that charcoal has teeth whitening properties :D You can also get the twin pack for 220 Php, making it 110 Php per toothbrush instead! I am so adding this one to my cart!

Colgate Naturals is Fully Recyclable with their Packaging

If you're thinking about the packaging, fret not! The packaging for Colgate Naturals toothpastes are made with recyclable tubes and cartons. The Tubes are made with high-density polyethylene (HDPE), a.k.a. the No. 2 plastic used to make milk jugs and other plastic bottles.

The material was too rigid to make a squeezable tube, but Colgate engineers figured out a way to combine different grades and thicknesses of HDPE laminate to make a toothpaste tube. The new recyclable tube meets recycling standards and protects the product.

Switching to the eco-friendly lifestyle is not just a way to protect the planet. It is also a way to protect the health of our loved ones, and safeguard the future of our kids. Para naman may maabutan sila na sariwang hangin and that sense of serenity in nature.
