Why Switch to Coconut Oil Toothpaste?

If conventional pastes leave your mouth feeling dry or irritated, it’s likely the harsh foaming agents, synthetic flavors, and unnecessary additives. Real Skin Care’s approach is different: short, transparent ingredient lists built around organic, plant-based materials that respect your mouth’s natural balance. Our coconut oil–based toothpaste cleans effectively, freshens breath, and supports a simple, non-toxic routine the whole family can feel good about.

What Is Coconut Oil Toothpaste?

It’s a gentle, fluoride-free, SLS-free toothpaste centered on organic virgin coconut oil and complementary, naturally-derived ingredients. Instead of relying on SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) or artificial flavors, we use clean components that help loosen surface stains, freshen breath, and leave your mouth comfortable — not stripped.

How Our Formula Works (Ingredient-by-Ingredient)

  • Organic Virgin Coconut Oil: Adds slip for a comfortable brush and helps lift debris and surface stains as you clean.
  • Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate): A time-honored polishing aid used in baking soda toothpaste to gently remove surface discoloration while supporting a fresher feel.
  • Wildcrafted Myrrh Powder: Traditionally used in oral-care routines; adds a clean, plant-based touch to support daily freshness.
  • Xanthan Gum: A plant-derived thickener for a smooth, easy-to-dispense texture — no synthetic gelling agents required.
  • Stevia: A natural sweetener to balance flavor without artificial sweeteners or sugars.
  • Essential Oils of Peppermint & Spearmint: Crisp, botanical flavor for fresh breath — no synthetic “mint” fragrance.
  • Purified Spring Water: Delivers a clean, spreadable base that rinses easily.

Benefits You Can Feel

  • Surface Stain Care: Baking soda helps gently polish away everyday discoloration for a brighter-looking smile — a simple, whitening toothpaste without peroxide approach.
  • Mouthfeel You’ll Love: Coconut oil provides a cushioned glide that leaves teeth feeling clean — not squeaky or stripped.
  • Fresh, Botanical Flavor: Real peppermint and spearmint essential oils deliver crisp freshness without artificial flavors.
  • Non-Irritating: Fluoride-free and SLS-free; made without synthetic fragrance, artificial dyes, or parabens — a truly non-toxic toothpaste philosophy.
  • Simplified Labels: Short, recognizable ingredients aligned with clean, organic toothpaste standards.
  • Family-Friendly: Thoughtfully formulated for everyday use; supervise young brushers and use a pea-size amount — one of the best natural toothpaste options for families who prefer minimal ingredients.

Kids & Sensitive Gums

If you’re shopping for toothpaste for sensitive gums or for kids, look for low-foam, clean formulas without SLS or artificial flavors. Use a pea-size amount, brush gently with a soft bristle, and remind children to spit and rinse. If your gums are prone to sensitivity, reduce pressure and consider shorter, more frequent brushes while your mouth adjusts to a low-foam, non-irritating routine.

How to Use for Best Results

  1. Portion: Use a pea-size amount (children and adults). A little goes a long way.
  2. Brush: Clean for two minutes with a soft-bristle or electric brush, reaching all surfaces.
  3. Rinse: Spit and rinse thoroughly. Do not swallow.
  4. Consistency: Brush twice daily and replace your brush head every 3 months.

Sensitivity note: If you’re reactive to baking soda, reduce frequency or patch test along the gumline; discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Transition Tips: Switching from Conventional Paste

  • Expect low foam: Without SLS, foam is lighter — the clean is still thorough when you brush for two minutes.
  • Flavor shift: Essential-oil mint tastes cleaner and rinses without an artificial aftertaste.
  • Give it a week: If you’re used to heavy foam, the first few days can feel different. Most people prefer the gentler feel after a short adjustment.
  • Baking soda benefits: Gentle polishing helps with surface stains; if you’re soda-sensitive, use less and monitor comfort.

Our Ingredient Standards

Every formula reflects our brand values: organic and plant-based whenever possible, no synthetic fragrance or masking agents, and no harsh chemicals. We craft in small batches for quality and transparency you can trust — because what you use twice a day should be as clean as it is effective.

  • Finish fresh: Keep lips soft (especially in dry seasons) with Coconut Oil Lip Balm.
