    doesn't taste bad!

    I bought this as a little kit, came with a toothbrush for around 8 bucks CDN. The grey colour turned me off a bit, but hey - it has charcoal in it so how can you hide that? Not by adding dyes to a toothpaste that is supposed to help with stains amIright? I have gone through about half the tube and do not notice any remarkable difference in the colour of my teeth BUT it does give my teeth a thorough cleaning, the kind where you run your tongue along your teeth and you feel the clean. I'd rather use this than toothpaste with baking soda - NOPE can't deal with that flavour combo.

    I like it

    Good toothpaste. In my opinion, it deserves 4 stars because there are products that whiten teeth better. Nevertheless, it works well and whitens teeth. I liked that this toothpaste removes stains and plaque well. Be sure to buy it again.

    Not Whitening

    I have mixed feelings about this toothpaste. I honestly haven’t noticed my teeth get brighter or whiter, but I liked the taste and honestly feel like it was quite refreshing. It does leave my teeth squeaky clean and my mouth fresh, I feel like it is more preventative in terms of staining, and keeps away new stains, but actually doesn’t really whiten past stains. If it does, it’s taking ages to show (and I’m nearing the end of my second tubes).

    Didn’t love this at all

    I didn’t feel this made my teeth any whiter and brighter than their other toothpastes and it tasted awful to me.
    I will be sticking with other choices!

    Noticed a difference

    Would recommend using this toothpaste as it actually works well, I’ve noticed an improvement in the shade of my teeth and they are whiter and cleaner.

    Great attempt but falls short

    I have been using actual charcoal toothpaste and when I ran out I bought this with the brush to test out. I found it less evective then my original and often ended up brushing my teeth again with a different toothpaste.

    Colgaterrific

    I got this for free. And it’s a good product. I know the great benefits of charcoal, so surely this is amazing for our mouth. The minty flavour is just right and my teeth is really clean after every brush. I’m still waiting for the big transformation in the long run.

    Colgate Essentials Toothpaste with Charcoal

    I was really surprised at how clean my mouth felt after brushing once with Colgate Essentials Toothpaste with Charcoal. It was noticeably cleaner and the freshness carried on for most of the morning, even with me drinking coffee!

    This is okay I guess. I haven't used it long enough to comment on the whitening part of the paste.
    Nice flavor not a lot of charcoal though.

    Colgate Essentials with Charcoal

    I recently tried the Colgate Essentials with Charcoal in Fresh Mint. I had been curious about charcoal toothpastes so thought I would give this toothpaste a try.

    Unlike a lot of other charcoal toothpastes that I have seen this toothpaste is not black which was a relief to me as I really didn't like the idea of putting a black paste in my mouth. This toothpaste is a soft grey colour and has a strong mint smell and flavour. This means that there is no chance of there being any charcoal taste.

    This toothpaste is supposed to remove stains and impurities, whiten your teeth and freshen your breath. This toothpaste really did give me fresh breath which lasted for hours after brushing. I also found that my teeth looked slightly whiter after using it.

    Colgate is not my go to toothpaste but this toothpaste may change that.
