Gary D Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 What ever you buy in the Philippines that looks the same as you buy in the UK has likely been reformulated to take account of the climate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Peterson Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 But But, on a serious note Steve, I find that the end of the last squeeze gets a hard lump that can block the Tube and then it gets messy. OY we are talking toothpaste here OK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jollygoodfellow Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Toothpaste seems the same for me. Had some of my Aussie stuff when I first got here and been using other brands here for awhile now and all appear to be the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJReyes Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Wait a minute. Toothpaste in the Philippines is sea salt which is rubbed on your teeth and gums. You can use a finger or a toothbrush. The abrasiveness of salt results in whiter, cleaner teeth. Forget the mucky, expensive version sold in the West. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expatuk2014 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Me being one of the older ones here and using poligrip , yes like the UK at the moment the Philippines is Hot ! But unlike the UK its hot here all year round ! Even when we have thunderstorms and rain every day its still hot as im writing this its 30c ! And yes Toothpaste does tend to get cooked in the open end of the tube same as poligrip which is why ours is kept in the fridge ! We have 2 fridģes 1 for food,milk etc, and one for my drinks,sweets,cakes etc I put almost all of my goodies i eat in my Fridge inc breakfast cereals, chocolate,biscuits,cakes,and anything that has been opened that attracts ants ! Saving enough room of course for my Southern comfort, Jack Daniels, and beers ! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimL Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Mix them up. Both toothpaste and Polygrip. Heat tends to separate chemicals. Even in Florida I have to kneed the “grip” back together so it doesn’t come out as liquid. Hahaha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleach is good too but don't use your finger......... I went to the dentist....he said your teeth are fine but your gums need to come out!
