Elgydium Toothpastes and ToothBrushes -for Fans in the US and Abroad

Elgydium®(the leading toothpaste in France for the last three decades), used to be available only in Europe and in boutique pharmacies. Fans picked it up in France, in caseloads. You’d also get a sample if you traveled first class on British Airways.
Now, you don’t have to fly anywhere to get Elgydium® products –who wants to get on a plane these days? The company (as SANTÉ active Inc., a U.S. subsidiary of Laboratoires Piere Fabre, France) has made Elgydium® available in the United States and online.

Maybe choosing a toothbrush and toothpaste seems boring, but if you get products you like, you’ll not only use them instead of “forgetting” to brush, you’ll brush longer and better. Good teeth are a must-have, so the Advice Sisters tried two of their toothpastes: Elgydium® Anti-Cavity Tootpaste $6.00 3.5 oz. and Elgydium® Whitening Toothpaste $6.99 3.5 oz. Both come in clean-looking, white tubes with dark blue and grey accents. The pastes are surprisingly silky and pleasant on the tongue and teeth –not gritty or harsh at all. The taste and feel is tingly, fresh and minty in your mouth. The Whitening Toothpaste contains micro-pulverized sodium-bicarbonate–Baking Soda is it’s more plebian name. But this type is five times smaller than typical sodium bicarbonate. This allows it to penetrate into even the tiniest fissures in the enamel of your teeth, to really ensure thorough a cleaning and whitening. Some whitening toothpastes can be pretty harsh on teeth and gums, but this one is gentle enough for everyday use. The Anti Cavity Toothpaste features a high-grade fluoride to help prevent cavities.

What do you need to go along with your luxe toothpaste? A toothbrush, of course! Elgydium® has four ergonomically designed Toothbrushes $3.99/each: Creation Toothbrush; Whitening Toothbrush; Supreme Toothbrush and Luminous Toothbrush. You might wonder which of the four is right for you–it could be confusing, but you can quickly figure out what features you like the most and choose that way. Each comes with a plastic bristle cover to keep it clean –and it’s great for travel. All are available in soft and medium bristles.

The Creation Toothbrush toothbrush stands out for it’s very wide, flat handle with a plastic “diamond” poking out mid-handle. It looks beautiful and its great to hold, but might not fit into a standard toothbrush holder unless it has very wide holes. The feature on this brush is diamond-rounded bristles that give a gentle but thorough cleaning.
The Whitening Toothbrush has a nice, rubberized grip, and double rows of diamond-rounded bristles that use a “Microball” technology that helps to remove plaque and increase the efficiency of gentle cleaning and whitening. If you have had work done on your teeth, or are trying easy ways to maintain that white smile, this is the brush for you.
The Luminous Toothbrush was created for the United States market with non-slip rubber grips on all sides, a small head and long, slender neck that makes it more comfortable to get into those “hard-to-reach” places. Deep, tufted bristles help you efficiently cleanse teeth and gums. If you like a toothbrush with a compact head (especially good for a small mouth) this is a particularly good choice.
How do you name a toothbrush “Supreme” if you have a quartet of great brushes? Elgydium’s Supreme Toothbrush, also created especially for the U.S. consumer has got it all. It has a non-slip rubber grip on all sides of a gracefully curved handle. The multi-level bristles help to reach all those areas in your teeth and gums you might otherwise miss. Four raised, rubber polishing ridges even get to the gum line while triangular, textured bristles help ensure a clean mouth. It’s definitely a thoughfully-designed, nice brush to use!

The cost of these Elgydium items isn’t much more than the bargain basement drugstore brands, but you’ll feel so “cosmopolitan” using them a routine chore will seem more fun. Both the toothpastes and the tooth brushes are genuinely nice to use and that’s a plus. That’s a true beauty bonus!
NOTE: There will be price changes on September first. The cost of the Toothpastes will be $9.00 and the Tooth Brushes will be $5.00 Visit http://www.drugstore.com/ to check out the goods and get them before the prices, rise.
