Charcoal is making its way into mainstream products, as evidenced by this Colgate toothpaste-and-toothbrush set. We love this pair, as the toothpaste is formulated with micropolishers to safely remove stains. The brush is equally effective, and features soft bristles to gently keep your teeth looking pearly white.
