Homemade Peppermint and Coconut Oil Toothpaste19

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup bentonite clay
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp. stevia (optional)
  • 1 to 4 drops peppermint essential oil

Preparation

Mix the clay and salt in a bowl. Add the water. Mix well. Add the rest of ingredients. Mix well again until it forms a paste. Store it in a jar with a lid. Every time you go to use it, spoon some onto your toothbrush. Dampen the paste by putting your brush under some gently running water. Brush as usual.
