The road to sustainability, and especially the attempt to give up plastic, passes through the alley called zero waste. No waste.

The first plastic-free toothpaste I used was one in a glass jar.

I shared my experience with this zero-waste toothpaste. I hope it will be useful for those who are also trying to make this transition, from ordinary products, packed in single-use, non-recyclable plastic, to more ecological products.
