Having fresh breath is a top priority in our daily hygiene and beauty routine. An indispensable tool for this purpose is obviously the toothbrush, but if we want to work harder, mouthwash can also come to our aid. Mouthwash is a very useful ally for the hygiene of the whole mouth, and can complete our daily cleaning routine.
Unfortunately, many of us don’t like the mouthwashes on the market, which often contain alcohol, or taste too aggressive or too pungent.
But don’t worry, there are countless recipes for making mouthwash at home. We will have a more delicate, less pungent, but certainly no less effective mouthwash.
To prepare a do-it-yourself mouthwash, all you need are very common ingredients in our homes, and only a few minutes of preparation.
So let’s see how to prepare homemade mouthwash for always fresh breath with only natural ingredients.
Ingredients
a) half a liter of water
b) a spoonful of bicarbonate
c) a few drops of our favorite essential oil
d) a teaspoon of salt
How to prepare homemade mouthwash for always fresh breath with only natural ingredients
The process is very simple. In a container with a lid (better if not plastic), put half a liter of water, a tablespoon of bicarbonate, a teaspoon of salt and a few drops of essential oil. For an always fresh breath, we can add mint essential oil. For a sanitizing effect, we add the essential oil of tea tree, while lemon will be perfect if we prefer a more delicate flavor.
Now let’s shake our container well to distribute the ingredients.
We can use our mouthwash prepared in this way after each brushing of the teeth, to make rinses. The natural mouthwash should be kept in the fridge and consumed within a few days.
If we want an even fresher breath, we can incorporate a curious but very useful tool into our routine: the tongue cleaner. That’s what it’s for.
