Red Seal Natural Herbal Review

I've tried this a couple of times, but I just don't like it.

I find that the texture is a bit grainy, which I find weird, although I guess it's just something that you can get used to over time.

It does a perfectly fine job at cleaning your teeth, which is the important thing, and it does get rid of 'morning breath' (ew, yucky!) as well.

However the main reason I won't reuse, is that I just can't get past the taste. This is a personal thing, but I have to use minty-flavoured toothpaste or I don't feel like I've cleaned my teeth properly, no matter how silly that is. For that reason, plus the texture-issue, I won't repurchase.

If you're not worried about mintiness, however, it could be worth a try.

Hope that helps some of you! xx

I'm really hesitant to review this product. To be entirely fair I didn't give it a proper go and I feel I can't really comment on it's effectiveness.

I only used this a few times before rushing out and buying a regular chemical laden toothpaste. My reason? The taste!

I could not get past that taste. The reason why I am reviewing is because, as on oral product, I feel taste is one of the defining drivers behind purchase. I am no fan of aniseed and upon opening I knew I had made a terrible mistake. It's also sweetened with stevia which I find gives a highly unpleasant mouth finish.

It did do a serviceable job of cleaning my teeth though so I wouldn't shy away from recommending it (I passed on the tube to a friend in fact)

Received this in a Bridal Goodie bag and have been contemplating to switching to natural Toothpaste for awhile as I am pretty conscious of fluoride etc..

First impressions based on packaging were hopeful. This sounded like this was the answer to what I had been searching for.

I generally use 'whitening' Toothpaste and this one isn't although the brand does do a baking soda version for that purpose.

First impression on the product itself.. Easy to squeeze tube. Smells pleasant... Taste... Odd very odd... At first I wasn't sure I was going to be able to brush my Teeth for as long as usual as I am pregnant and funny things are prone to making me gag! Is the taste unpleasant? Sort of... Its a very stevia, herbal, menthol concoction and you can taste it!

Result.. Honestly.. My teeth do not feel anywhere near as clean as when I use other Toothpastes or even whitening Toothpastes.. My Teeth are also not looking anywhere near as white or clean as they do with other Toothpastes..

I haven't got used to the taste... I think I will just use this until its finished and might purchase the baking soda version instead and see if its any better for me!

I picked this up at the supermarket one time as I read 'natural herbal' and thought it might be interesting to try as I had been trying out some more natural products. My tired brain didn't click that 'natural' would mean 'fluoride-free' and it wasn't until I later read the packet I realised this. I am very pro-fluoride and unfortunately knew straight away I wouldn't be using this after the tube was through but I thought I might as well give it a go.

This has a slight herbal taste which I found pretty unusual. It's not too overwhelming but it's not much to my liking and I still prefer the taste of a normal minty toothpaste, I find it leaves my mouth feeling a lot fresher.

I also think the texture is really bizarre, it could just be because I'm used to the smoothness of a standard toothpaste but this one felt really gritty. It reminds me a lot of that gritty paste you get given at the dentist.

In terms of performance, I haven't noticed much difference in the few weeks I have been using it to my usual toothpaste except in whiteness. I normally use a whitening toothpaste as I drink a LOT of coffee, despite the claim to whiten teeth I found my teeth looking slightly more discoloured than normal.

I won't be repurchasing this again.

This toothpaste was sitting in my bathroom cupboard for awhile before I decided to open it, as I normally use my trusty Colgate. When that ran out I remembered I had this toothpaste that I got free in a goodie bag with a magazine purchase.

Red Seal is a brand I normally associate with vitamins, so I was interested to try this. It is all natural. Although all natural appeals to me for skincare, it doesn't really attract me to toothpaste for some reason, as I am used to my usual fluoride in toothpaste to protect my teeth.

The packaging is very simplistic and emphasises the natural theme. The tube is standard, coloured white, with a flip top cap.

Firstly, the taste of this toothpaste is very unpleasant, looking at the ingredients I think it's the strong taste of Stevia coming through mixed with a few other herbal concoctions. Unfortunately, this would have to be the worst tasting toothpaste I have tasted.

Secondly, I really feel this toothpaste doesn't do a good job of cleaning your teeth thoroughly. My breath didn't feel as fresh using this and I felt like I needed to clean my teeth again with proper toothpaste!

Also, I really look for toothpastes to be whitening for my teeth, but this product really doesn't do that.

Overall I'm not impressed with this toothpaste, and I am glad I got it as a freebie. I would not repurchase this in the future.

I bought this toothpaste recently because I'd seen some good reviews on BR and noticed it on special for $2.99. I had tried it years ago and didn't particularly like it then.

Firstly the packaging is beyond plain and a little off-putting. Then the second thing I noticed and remembered from last use, was the unusual taste, which I don't really like. And I didn't really notice it whitened my teeth either.

As far as toothpaste goes, it is very ordinary in terms of performance, and I didn't think it particularly impressive in terms of breath freshening or cleaning. It didn't seem any more effective in preventing build up of plaque than any other toothpase.

Personally I wouldn't buy it again. I would only recommend it to someone who was very keen to use a herbal alternative to traditional toothpaste.

In its favour, it is quite economical and readily available at supermarkets.

I dint like this one. Odd very strong taste. No one would use it actually. So a big all-round dislike and thumbs down.
