Burt's Bees Natural Peppermint Flavor Fluoride Toothpaste, 4 oz

The toothpaste is ok. It's a bit thick but it does the job and the addition of Novamin makes it worthwhile. However they used to have this reasonably easy to use snap top on the tube. The last two tubes I've purchased have had a new, large, twist off top. This makes the toothpaste unbearably difficult to use as the toothpaste leaks into the twist top and smears all over the tube every time you use it. I gave it two tubes to see if I could get the hang of making it not messy but that's not possible, so I will switch to a different brand because ease-of-use should be a consideration when designing packaging.

I have given this toothpaste a chance for THREE individual times. Each time I have thrown the toothpaste away nearly full. The tube punctures and all of the toothpaste leaks out; a big runny cakey mess. The plastic flip top to open the toothpaste is extremely difficult to open ( a round twist off cap would serve much better.)

My mouth was totally blistered by using other toothpastes that contained chemicals. I recieved a free tube of Burt's Bee's toothpaste and gave it a try. My mouth cleared up and now I am a true believer in Burt's Bee's Natural Toothpaste! Who really needs chemicals in your toothpaste anyways! Thanks so much for coming out with such a great toothpaste!

I very much like this toothpaste, but whoever designed the packaging should consider a change of career. It stands upright, yet the paste then oozes out the bottom and gets stuck all over the cap such that when you open it, a string forms that will drip all over if you're not careful. Burt's, please keep making this toothpaste, but maybe use a firmer plastic for the tube or just use an old-fashioned tube that gets stored horizontally!

This toothpaste tastes great, seems to do a very good job with cleaning (and no nasty chemicals, of course), but the consistency is very gooey and sticky. I discovered in short order that if I store it sitting upright on the cap, that when I open it, the toothpaste is a sticky mess that forms a strand between the part of the cap that flips open and the end of the tube. I am more than willing to have that tradeoff to use toothpaste with no chemicals, however. (Once you start brushing, there is no problem.) I also give it high marks for being much better than Tom's of Maine. I tried that toothpaste several months ago; and after a week, I had tooth sensitivity that I never experienced before. Burt's Bees cleans well, with no adverse effects.
