Natural Living - DIY Toothpaste
A few weeks ago, I attended a workshop where we made our own toothpaste. I was a little wary as I remember making my own toothpaste about 10 years ago and not being very impressed with the results. However, I have used this toothpaste everyday since and I'm really liking it. I'm not sure where they got the recipe, but this is how we made it. If there's anyone I need to give credit to, let me know. This recipe isn't mine.
- 2/3 c. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt (some people put more, but that's too much salt for me. I had to cut it down)
- 15 drops peppermint essential oil
- water
Mix the first three ingredients together in a ziploc bag. Then add water to desired consistency. Super easy, super cheap. And it really works! I mean, you don't think I'd risk my smile, do you? ;)
