 Red Seal Toothpaste From New Zealand - Now Available In Malaysia

Malaysian fans of the Red Seal Toothpaste can take heart that their favourite Natural toothpaste is now available in Malaysia. Toothpaste is one of the most important personal care products that we routinely used everyday sometimes up to 3 times a day. But we fail to really acknowledge what is in the toothpaste that goes into our mouth.

With the recent launch of the highly trusted New Zealand brand Red Seal Natural Toothpaste in Malaysia, we will be able to use a more natural and safer brushing experience.

"The mucosal lining inside our mouth has about 90% absorption efficiency and we are exposing our health to many toxic chemicals in our toothpaste without us knowing about it. Therefore we want the ingredient to be as natural as possible." Says Red Seal's Naturopathic Expert Michelle Irving.

The Red Seal toothpaste ingredients replace those chemicals with more natural extracts and essential oils like eucalyptus, aniseed and peppermint. The combination of the ingredients makes the toothpaste highly alkaline and creates an environment that discourages the growth of bacteria in our mouth.

There are a total of 5 varieties of Red Seal Toothpaste, with their signature being the Red Seal Natural Toothpaste. It is a combination of 12 herbs and extracts to help remineralization and killing off bacteria to prevent tooth decay and plaque formation. It has a mild, minty pleasant taste, and is suitable for the whole family.

For individuals who are ulcer-prone, there is a special formula which is Red Seal Natural SLS Free Toothpaste. It is free of Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS). It provides gentle protection on the mucosa layer. It is also suitable for people who wear teeth braces.

The third formula is the Red Seal Baking Soda Toothpaste which is used to remove stains and is particularly more suitable for coffee & tea drinker. It also has an effect as a natural teeth whitener.

While the Red Seal Propolis Toothpaste contains 100% New Zealand Bee Propolis with antiseptic and antibacterial properties and is ideal for those that suffer from gingivitis and sensitive gums issues.

The final varieties are the Red Seal Kids Toothpaste for the little ones. The taste is specially enhanced with real banana and peach flavours. The great taste encourages the kids to brush their teeth without having to worry about the risk of swallowing harmful chemicals.

The range of Red Seal Natural Toothpaste is available exclusively at all Caring Pharmacy in Malaysia and is priced between RM18.70 to RM28.20.  For more information on the range of Red Seal Toothpaste. please visit www.redseal.com.my or Red Seal Facebook Page
