Botanique Charcoal + Black Seed Oil ToothpasteHimalaya Botanique Charcoal + Black Seed Oil Toothpaste 113 g (4 oz), Pack of 2

Coconut-shell charcoal and a short free-from list

This Himalaya Botanique paste uses charcoal powder from coconut shell alongside stevia, xylitol and coconut-derived cleansing agents. It is fluoride-free and also leaves out SLS, carrageenan, gluten and triclosan, with no artificial colours or flavours. The brand states it is vegan and never tested on animals.

A cooling mint finish

Mint essential oil and menthol give a cool, clean feel, and Himalaya says the paste still tastes and foams well without harsh abrasives. Several of the botanical extracts, such as neem, pomegranate and amla, are marked as organic on the ingredient list.

What comes in the pack

You receive two 4 oz (113 g) tubes of the same mint formula. One can stay in reserve while the other is in use, or you can keep one at home and one in a travel bag.

How to use

Apply a pea-sized amount to a toothbrush, wet the brush and clean all surfaces of the teeth with a circular motion for two minutes. Rinse thoroughly.

Before you choose

This is a fluoride-free toothpaste, so it suits people who prefer to avoid fluoride rather than those looking for a fluoride anticavity paste. The listing gives no specific warnings, but check the ingredient list if you are sensitive to any botanical extract or essential oil.

US-market product: packaging and label wording may differ from UK versions.
