best out of colgate line
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Best product of the colgate line i've tried all types of toothpaste and this is one of my top 3. It has a nice minty flavor but not too overpowering. As well as i do notice it does well with removing any dark stain on my teeth. Over all very good product would repurchase.

The Colgate Total Active Prevention Whitening toothpaste (2-pack) is a great value and works well for everyday use. It leaves my mouth feeling very clean and fresh, and the mint flavor is strong enough to feel refreshing without being too harsh. After consistent use, my teeth look a bit brighter and surface stains seem to fade slightly, while my gums also feel comfortable.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I love that it's a 2 pack due to it saving a little money versus buying just one pack of tooth paste. Colgate is my top brand of toothpaste because the flavor doesn't leave an aftertaste in your mouth. It also makes my mouth feels refreshed and clean

Fresh taste, good texture.
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I enjoyed using this toothpaste. It has a nice smooth texture (a paste, but not gritty). The flavor is minty, but not too overpowering. Overall, it is refreshing and effective. I would use it again.

Minty fresh toothpaste
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. My first thought is why aren't there safety seals on either of the toothpaste tubes? That's scary. It's pretty thin as the toothpaste comes leaking out at you. The minty taste isn't over powering which is nice. I'm not sure on the whitening part just yet as I'm not seeing a difference. The box does say it has 24 hour antibacterial properties. Sounds helpful! All in all I would buy this again but would love some safety measures here with some Foil on the tops

Great!
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This Colgate toothpaste has a great minty taste! I really like so far, but not sure the claims are true or not. Hopefully it truly whitens.

Very thick paste
The only thing that I really have to complain about the Cole gate total active prevention whitening toothpaste is how thick the toothpaste is. I feel like it doesn’t really dissolve well in my mouth and then when I’m done brushing my teeth I’m just kind of blacked with this thick paste over my teeth and it doesn’t foam up well for me. My boyfriend uses it and loves it, but I prefer something with a little bit thinner of a paste, but the taste of the mint is a good mint and it has lasted us for a long time I think because the paste is so thick so you really don’t need to use a lot at all

Thanks for sharing such thoughtful feedback! We’re sorry the thicker texture and foaming weren’t quite what you prefer, though we’re glad you enjoyed the mint taste and found that a little goes a long way. Texture and foam can be very personal, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know. If you’d like help finding a Colgate toothpaste with a lighter feel or more foam, our team would be happy to help. 😊

Not fresh feeling after use of it.
I didn’t like it. Mouth didn’t feel clean after use. It’s didn’t satisfy my expectations on expectations I had on feeling fresh. Had to add toothpaste in order to rinse my mouth out so I wouldn’t say it lasted a long time. Over all I think it was not dependable to clean my teeth.

very good product
Colgate optic white is a game changer for anyone who wants to whitening their teeth in the short period of time. It helps a lot. No sensitive and no allergies at all. The tube lasts long and not too expensive and you can find it everywhere

Favorite for clean and fresh mouth
This is my go-to toothpaste. I like the flavor and taste. I also like the amount of 'foam' it produces while you brush. Some toothpastes get flat and watery and don't feel as if they are actually cleaning your teeth. Colgate gets it right. My mouth is clean and fresh and I haven't had a cavity in years.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I’ve been using Colgate Total Active Prevention Whitening toothpaste daily and like how it leaves my mouth feeling clean and refreshed without an overpowering mint taste. After a few weeks, I noticed a subtle improvement in surface stains, especially from coffee. The whitening is gradual rather than dramatic, but it works well as an everyday toothpaste that supports overall oral hygiene.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The packaging on this product promotes a more organized counter space. It stands up with a flip top, and this keeps things less messy, also. It's a light taste for a paste and left my teeth feeling clean. I recommend. C

Great product!
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This toothpaste works great! I instantly saw that my teeth were whiter after using it. It is minty but doesn't taste bad at all. My teeth felt great after using this toothpaste. I like how it is a value pack as well.

Great toothpaste from a brand I trust
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I liked this Colgate product. I liked that it is a brand that I trust and helps with gingivitis, plaque, tartar, cavities, bad breath, and more. The bonus is that it's a whitening paste also which is nice. The tubes seem a little smaller than the tubes I usually get but this feels like a premium product. The flavor was good and overall I enjoyed this product. I wish it were a little bit cheaper but it was great.
