Bamboo Toothbrush - Adult
Regular price $6.25 10You’re going to use over 300 toothbrushes in your lifetime to keep your dentist happy, now you can keep the planet happy too.
Your teeth and gums will love the softness of these bristles and your mouth will be left feeling clean and fresh.
Our bamboo toothbrushes last just as long as a plastic one, until you dispose of them that is! Their slim design is smooth to the touch and feels great in your hand.
Smile wide with every brush knowing you’re no longer contributing to the millions of pounds of plastic toothbrushes being tossed into the landfill each year.
Bristle Type: Soft
Plastic toothbrush.
Billions of plastic toothbrushes end up in the landfill each year where they take upwards of 450 years to start to break down.
Bristles: Nylon*
*The most all natural option for bristles on the market right now is boar hair, and that to us is a bit out there. There is presently no option for biodegradable bristles, however, our bristles are BPA-free meaning they won't leach toxins.
- Wet your bamboo toothbrush.
- Tap off all excess water.
- Dip the corner of your bamboo toothbrush into your life UNpacked tooth powder. *Less is more - You don’t need much.
- Brush like normal, spit, and rinse. *Be careful not to swallow. (Brushing pulls toxins from your teeth and gums and it's best not to re-ingest those!)
Typical Life Span: 3-4 months*
When it’s time to retire your toothbrush, simply cut or pull out the bristles and throw them away; the rest of the handle can be discarded in your compost bin.
*Life span will vary based on frequency of use, aggressiveness of the brusher, storage conditions, etc.
So glad I made the switch to bamboo, it works great, looks great & most importantly I’m contributing less plastic waste into the world!
Hey Jess, Thank you for your great 5 star review. We are so happy that you are contributing less plastic waste to the world :)
CanadaIt does a great job and I love that it’s almost all compostable. No longer feeling guilty about so much waste :)
Hey Lauren - thanks for taking the time to review our bamboo toothbrush! We are so happy you love the product and how it works.
CanadaI say 95% less, because I still think the bristles being BPA are a bit hard to recycle. But I love that the majority of the brush can just go in my garden or in my compost. I typically reuse the bamboo toothbrush handle as stakes in my garden! :) Reduce, reuse, recycle... plus I heard there were other R's - refuse & repurpose!
Hey Jeff - you are bang on with the waste being decreased dramatically! We will have a bristle that is 100% compostable as well in the near future. Then you can change your statistic again! :)
CanadaThis is a great quality toothbrush! I was excited to make the switch to a bamboo one, so I wouldn’t have to feel so guilty about throwing away my plastic one - this one can go right into the compost (after removing the bristles)!
Thanks for your great review Katie :) Keep up the great work!
CanadaI’ve always used plastic tooth brushes from my dentist and felt horrible throwing them in the garbage. With this bamboo toothbrush it feels so good to throw it in my compost bin! And works amazing too :)
Hey Julia - Thank you for taking the time to review our bamboo toothbrush. It's people like you that help spread the word of saving waste and making simple decisions that help the planet. :)
Tooth Powder Refill
Regular price $6.50 10We’ve eliminated the need for those finicky plastic tubes and the ongoing debate of whether to squeeze toothpaste from the middle of the tube or the end!
Your mouth will love the fresh taste of mint and your teeth will be left feeling squeaky clean.
Our tooth powder is an easy to use alternative to toothpaste, just dip and brush!
Plus, by switching to tooth powder you’re saving plastic toothpaste tubes from the landfill. Simply store your tooth powder in this stylish, frosted glass container and top it up with a refill (shipped in a compostable paper bag!) in your next order.
Quantity: 30 g
Tubed toothpaste.
Regular plastic toothpaste tubes can technically be recycled, but sadly very few people go to the effort to rinse them out, meaning they almost always end up in the landfill.
Tooth powder replaces the need for plastic toothpaste tubes and allows you to refill and reuse instead.
Dicalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Silicon Dioxide, Xylitol, Stevioside, DL-Menthol
- Unscrew the lid. *Be careful as you do this to prevent spilling the powder. It is best to open the container in a vertical position with the bamboo lid facing up.
- Wet your life UNpacked bamboo toothbrush.
- Tap off all excess water.
- Dip the corner of your toothbrush into the tooth powder. *Less is more - You don’t need much.
- Brush like normal, spit, and rinse. *Be careful not to swallow. (Brushing pulls toxins from your teeth and gums and it's best not to re-ingest those!)
Your tooth powder will be shipped in a compostable paper bag that can be thrown into your compost bin.
Typical Life Span: 3-4 months*
Tooth powder dissolves to nothing, so you don’t need to worry about disposing of it!
*Life span will vary based on frequency of use, storage conditions, etc.
CanadaI'm so happy that the tooth powder is now without sodium lauryl sulfate!!!! Yeah for our health and environment!!
Hey Cathrerine - Absolutely - we found that the SLS was not needed to produce the same cleaning and experience for our customers. This way it is healthier for people and the environment! :) A true win-win!
This product is awesome - so easy to use and does a great job. I’ve been using this for almost 16 months now and my dentist has said each time that my teeth are looking healthy and clean! The minty fresh taste is still one of my favourite leave behinds, along with my teeth feeling super smooth after each brushing. Thanks for making such a great product that creates zero waste! :)
We are glad you love the minty fresh taste Nonie. Any other options you would like to see offered here at life UNpacked?
This stuff works wonders. Finally a company that gets it! With all the waste we create in our lives, I at least can help out from not throwing away anymore of those darn tubes. I bought one of each size of the bamboo containers with powdered toothpaste to see which one would work better for me. I’m glad I did because both ended up working great in different ways. The 10g one gives me enough to clean my teeth for a week or 2 away and the 20g one I can be away from home for up to a month (with some to spare). It’s perfect because the refill is 30g(ish) so I can refill both containers at the same time!!!
Susan - that is great to hear the tooth powder works so well for you. It sounds like the different size options have been working well for you!
While I love the idea of Tooth Powder, I like to use toothpaste with fluoride as I believe it is important for healthy teeth. It cleans great, and has a great taste to it, but it wasn’t personally for me. No need to wet your toothbrush, simply dip and start brushing, it foams from the moisture in your mouth to give you a good clean.

I set out wanting a product(s) that were plastic free. I wasn't sure what to expect. After using them for a couple of months I absolutely love the products. The shampoo bar is amazing, and the toothbrush and paste were my biggest surprise, they're brilliant. I highly recommend their products.
Thank you for your great review Jay! We are glad that our items were a surprise for you in a positive way! We aim to make sure that the eco-friendly products we provide are the same, if not better than their comparable plastic products options! :)

CanadaThis soap is some of the best, most refreshing soap I have ever used. I absolutely love it! It's all natural, organic, vegan, gluten free ingredients are some of the most healthy ingredients I have ever seen or used for my personal care products. I'm a guy who likes to smell good and this light citrus/cedar wood combo really gets noticed! The girls and guys I hang aroung with always seem to notice - which just adds to the great feeling of using a great product and supporting a great mission! :) :) :)
This is wonderful to hear, David! Thank you for taking the time to share this with our community. We just recently had someone ask about our products being vegan and gluten-free! They certainly are!
CanadaThis soap smells great and lathers so well! Favorite part is that it’s made with natural ingredients and zero waste!
Thanks for your great review Katie :) Keep up the great work!
I have always loved handmade soap. I’ve been gifted it by many people, but have never attempted to make it myself. This soap is so much more moisturizing than regular soap, which leaves my skin dry and flakey, this soap from life UNpacked really loves my skin. With a fresh scent, and the option of purchasing a small travel tin, this is sure to be your next go to soap, which you can take anywhere. Going to the pool? Bring your soap! Going camping? Bring the soap! Staying in a hotel? You got it, bring this soap! It is sure to help you feel extra squeaky clean!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our products, Kimberley! It means a ton to us for you to share your opinion with others who are interested in the same items.
My girlfriend and I have been using the products for the past month or so and we're loving them. The soap and shampoo bars are my personal favourites. Definitely the best selling soap I've ever bought. The best part for us is that we feel good knowing that we're not creating extra plastic waste with the bathroom products that we buy!
Keep up the awesome work to share the products with your girlfriend and family! So glad that you love the soap :)
Not only a fantastic mission, but the quality of the products has me re-ordering without hesitation. I particularly like the classic razor and the soaps!
Thanks for letting us know about this Craig, it means a ton to us that you shared this with us!

You can smile each time you use it knowing you’re no longer using traditional plastic floss containers and saving marine life with this biodegradable alternative. Simply save your stylish glass container and top it up with a refill (shipped in a compostable paper bag!) in your next order.

Traditional dental floss is usually made from either nylon (petroleum), teflon (the chemical mouthful polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)), or synthetic wax (petroleum).
These toxins can be absorbed into your bloodstream during those times that you floss a little too hard, or it’s been, say, longer than the suggested three times a day since your last floss.
Discarded dental floss cannot be recycled, takes 30-80 years to break down, and can be harmful to wildlife.
Glass floss containers replace the need for plastic dental floss containers and allow you to refill and reuse instead.

- Wind the floss around your fingers (no need to get all tangled!).
- Slide floss gently up and down between your teeth. *Take care around your gum line.
- At the gum line, curve floss into a C-shape against your tooth and gently slide into the space between the gum and your tooth.
- Repeat for each tooth.
- Cheese to check out those pearly whites.
*Keep your container for future refills.

Your glass floss container will last you for years to come, so keep it and use it again and again.*
In the unlikely event you need to dispose of your glass floss container, it can be tossed in your recycle bin.
*Life span will vary based on frequency of use, storage conditions, etc.
CanadaFirst, I love the package and the refill options for obvious reasons. Second, the flosssss though! It is grippy and feels like it is actually cleaning in between my teeth! The regular floss always felt too smooth and therefore ineffective in “scrubbing” between my teeth. I am genuinely happy to have come across this product. Thank you again, Unpacked!
Hello Ann- We're thrilled you enjoy our corn floss; It is a great product and 100% compostable. Glad you appreciate the refills as well. Thanks for being a Green Groomer <3
CanadaThe floss does it’s job, tastes good in the mouth, the container is just the right size, and is really cute.
Hi Mishel- We're glad you enjoy our corn floss, it means a lot to us!! Thanks for being a Green Groomer and do your part in helping the planet!
CanadaI was shocked at how durable the floss was... as this was my principal concern! I honestly do not think it ripped once the entire round. Makes me thankful that I got rid of a petroleum-based product in the bathroom!
Hi Andrew- we're so glad you enjoy our floss!! Thanks for the review and keep the plastic out of your bathroom!
This floss is great! It’s strong and comes in a nice looking container! And compostable :)
Hey Jess - Thanks for leaving a great review about our floss! We really love it to, and that the refills come in a compostable bag :)
CanadaThe bamboo floss worked great, and love the little glass container. Highly recommend.
Hey Alyssa - Thank you for recommending our product for our customers. It helps to share the benefits of the product. What else would you like to see us offer?

CanadaI just received my first order from Life Unpack and so far I couldn't be happier. The shampoo bar is fantastic! I have thick curly hair and was frankly unconvinced that it would do the job. I was totally wrong and am now a happy convert. Not only did the shampoo bar clean my hair beautifully but it also moisturized it, eliminating the need for a separate moisturizer. I also bought the razor, which is the best I have ever owned and pretty to boot (I have the rose gold). The toothbrush is just the right size and feels good with its bamboo handle. Wish the bristles were compostable too but I guess you just haven't been able to find anything suitable. My package arrived quickly and the entire experience with Life Unpacked has been nothing short of easy, satisfying and happy. Thank you for helping the earth recover by providing these ethical and amazing products!
Hey Anna, We're so thrilled that you love the shampoo bar, the razor and the bamboo toothbrush. We like the rose gold colour too :) Thank you for your support and for being part of our green groomer community!
CanadaLove the shampoo & conditioner bars! They lather really well, smell great and are all natural. Love the zero waste factor and I can easily pack them for traveling :)
Thanks for your great review Katie :) Keep up the great work on going green with your bathroom routine. Please feel free to share this with your family and friends!
The Shampoo Bar is a great alternative to shampoo, it is 100% natural, and doesn’t strip your hair of its natural oils, eliminating the need for a conditioner. I’ve never used a Shampoo Bar, so it was great to experience something different. It lathers perfectly for a great wash. Unfortunately it isn’t for me, as I have long and extremely thick hair, I couldn’t quite get enough to really give my hair a good wash. Though, my hair is shiny and less frizzy because of it! Perhaps in the future we will see shampoo? I do love the idea of the bar!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our products, Kimberley! It means a ton to us for you to share your opinion with others who are interested in the same items.
My girlfriend and I have been using the products for the past month or so and we're loving them. The soap and shampoo bars are my personal favourites.

I love how easy it is to go plastic free with Life Unpacked! It has truly changed my bathroom routine. I highly recommend their Shampoo bar! It works so great I don't have to use conditioner anymore cause it's all natural.
You got it Annalisa! Any thoughts on what you would like to see life UNpacked provide next?
Testimonials
I love that there is next to no waste with these products and that they work just as well as my old ones. The tooth powder leaves my mouth minty fresh and the shampoo bar leaves my hair feeling really smooth. It’s awesome!

Love my little bathroom kit!! Dropped the single use s****y colourful childlike toothbrushes for a classy simple planet friendly toothbrush among all the other upgrades. I've been wanting to try to reduce my impact in simple ways and the bathroom box/kit was an easy all in one. I didn't have to track everything down myself because all the research and sourcing was done. I've already been telling friends, family and even co-workers :D Keep it coming!
Fyfe B.![]()
From the outstanding customer service to what they represent, this is a huge step in the right direction for helping our planet. The swabs are the best, the bamboo is sturdy and the cotton doesn't fall off the end during use like your every day brands.

Stoked I made the choice to buy ALL these products! I finally found a company that replaces my sh*t plastic products, declutters my bathroom, AND gives me the choice to save our planet. THANK YOU!!!
Mitchell S.![]()
Prior to using this razor I was going through a Venus cartridge every week which cost me a ton of money, not to mention the cost to the environment and the associated guilt. This razor costs less, is great quality, and I get fewer ingrown hairs and without nicking myself! I’d recommend the razor paired with the shave bar for anyone currently using disposables.
