Listerine Pocket Packs

Another check up at the dentist, and yet another filling at £60-£80 plus. I decided it was time to cut back on my consumption of mints and reduce the risk of further fillings. I needed to find a substitute for the mints, but drew the line at chewing gum, as it always looks a bit tacky and impolite. Besides, I don't think that my employer would be too happy so see me dealing with clients whilst chewing gum. So I had a scout round Boots in my lunch hour, and spotted Listerine Actives (previously known as Pocket Packs). They claim to be sugar free, so I thought I'd give them a whirl. ** WHAT ARE THEY? ** They're made by Pfizer, a huge American conglomerate ...  Read the complete review

I used to smoke. I used to smoke a lot. Perhaps this had something to do with my job - I worked in a smoking warehouse in the armpit of London, and I was on the phone most of the day. This is a bad combination. Smoking has many consequences - many dire, others simply irritating to either myself or those around me. For example, my voice has dropped at least an octave in the last year - I'm certain that could I sing, I'd be a tenor by now. Smoking, especially heavy smoking, also results in ashtray breath. Ashtray breath leaves a nasty taste in my mouth, and a nasty odour for those around me. (I'm soooo glad, re-reading this, that I stopped smoking) So ...  Read the complete review

It has been a long time now since I submitted a proper bona fide product review, I' mendin my ways though. I put my new zest for life down to the power of Listerine. For it is that which I am reviewing dear child. Ah yes the review has begun and the time for frivolities is at an end. The inspiration for this review was actually the Wrigley's version, which I have tried before. I wasn’t too fond of it but didn't have enough to say to warrant a review. I would have had to spend whole paragraphs lambasting the packaging. Unfortunately I may have to do that here. The catalyst for my inspiration was a review on the Wrigley’s version, coming ...  Read the complete review

Cool Mint Listerine PocketPaks If you've got breath that can kill cattle at thirty paces, perhaps you should seek the nearest dentist rather than any temporary solution on offer here... I first bumped into this product it was being heartily endorsed by an alcoholic that wished to remain incognito, the curious minty sweet aroma that didst eminate from their orifice was sufficient to trigger my suspicions. When I queried this, said individual proferred me one to try claiming it was the sole reason... Eyeballing the cellophane looking tab suspiciously, I tried it... "1. First remove one Oral Care Strip from the convenient ...  Read the complete review

These green plastic textured strips resemble Elastoplast (without the white plastic tabs on the back.) At 99p a pack it would be much cheaper to buy ordinary fresh mint chewing gum if you just want to freshen up your mouth. However, if your problem is more pressing and your breath reeks of garlic, tobacco, onions, or any other unsavoury (or, indeed, savoury) odour, read on. These tabs freshen the bits that ordinary chewing gum just can’t reach. The manufacturers even promise that chewing just one strip will kill 99.9% of germs in just 30 seconds. Hmm, faster and more effective than Domestos. It's also almost sterile! ...  Read the complete review
