Homemade Toothpaste

It’s so easy to make your own toothpaste (& toiletries & household items in general) with simple wholesome ingredients. I recently made some toothpaste & it’s a huge hit in our household … it tastes great & leaves your teeth feeling super clean. Here’s the simple recipe:
Sweet Orange Toothpaste
3/4 cup coconut oil
3 Tbs baking soda
6-10 drops of sweet orange essential oil (or to taste) / or peppermint or any oil you love
10 drops of liquid stevia (or to taste) / or 2-3 packets of stevia powder
Place all ingredients in a food processor & blend until well combined. Scoop out into a bowl or dish & keep in your bathroom. Use as you would typical toothpaste. YUMMMMM!
What is the shelf life of this toothpaste? And proper care, (ex. should this be covered when not being used?)
It lasts a long time … I’ve never known it to go bad. We keep it in a bowl or mason jar with a lid. Hope that helps! 🙂
