Macleans Extreme Clean Deep Action Whitening Toothpaste Review

I've been buying the extreme clean toothpastes ever since they launched a few years ago, I think it's been a few years anyway. I always loved how super intense the toothpaste tasted and how my mouth always felt so clean after. Anyway about 6 months ago, I noticed they had this whitening version so since it was $5 at countdown, I decided to give it a go.

Toothpastes aren't the most amazing thing to look at in the packaging but I think this one stands out with it's bold colours. The tube is easy to squeeze and it has a secure flip cap. I hate screw tops, those few seconds to undo the cap drive me batty!

I find that this toothpaste isn't as intense on the mint side as what the original extreme clean toothpastes were but I still feel like it's quite strong and I love how it leaves my mouth all minty after I've finished. One thing I dislike a bit is that it doesn't foam up that easily. I find you either have to use more than normal or you have to wet your toothbrush a few times to make it foam up properly.

I have noticed a difference in how white my teeth go when I use this (I switch up brands occasionally). I think it whitens a good 2 to 3 shades. It's not the best whitening toothpaste out there but I think it has the best of both worlds because it cleans well and then has the bonus of a whiter smile.

This is probably my most purchased toothpaste at the moment, we go through a tube every 3 or 4 weeks. I switch it up sometimes with total but I prefer the taste of this one. I would recommend this to anyway who likes a strong taste and wants to help whiten their teeth.

I must be the few and far between that don't really like this toothpaste. This is our current tooth paste and I'm not totally convinced about it. I guess I'm a Colgate girl at heart but if I have the time in the supermarket I can look at every tube on offer and this one must have caught my eye. I cannot say that I have noticed any whitening action from this tooth paste, in fact I think they are looking less white- therefore making me assume my previous toothpaste was better at whitening.

As for fresh breath- my husband has had a bit stinky breath lately so god I hope mine isn't! And we use the same toothpaste so I can only put it down to that.

Yes it foamed up a bit but not as much as I was expecting. I probably won't get it again unless it's on super special and my preferred toothpaste isn't. In the mean time I might delegate it to the shower for that extra brush my teeth get daily.

This is one of my go to toothpastes. Macleans is one of my favourite brands for toothpastes. Ma cleans and Colgate are the ones I tend to buy, as I trust these brands to care and protect my teeth. I'm very particular about caring and cleaning my teeth, and a good toothpaste is important.

The packaging is bright and the colours stand out from the supermarket shelf.

My teeth can be slightly sensitive but this formula has never caused me any problems. The formula is quite foamy and feels nice whilst brushing my teeth with it.

The flavour is quite strong, which I like in a toothpaste- my teeth and breath feel really clean and fresh after using this.

It's quite a reasonable price and one that does the job well, so I repurchase it frequently.

4 stars for this toothpaste.

Macleans Extreme Clean Deep Action Whitening Toothpaste is a mouth full (pun intended) to say. But does it have a big effect on your teeth?

It cleans well, really just like any toothpaste. It foams up in your mouth, you spit it out and you feel like your mouth is cleaner and more refreshed.

However, this toothpaste also promises to whiten. A promise that personally I found didn't get fufilled. To me my teeth looked exactly the same. Though as the colour of the teeth underneath the enamal can affect the colour of the teeth, there is a possiblity that this colour stood up against whitening on the surface.

Packaging wise, I wasn't keen on the colour scheme, the colours didn't create a flattering look. But they still presented the box and the toothpaste tube nicely.

Macleans is a trusted toothpaste brand. I'm not sure trusted and better are mutally exclusive. But for me the toothpaste performed just like any other toothpaste; it kept my breath fresh and my teeth clean.

I bought this toothpaste on special for around $3 and was interested to see if it would whiten my teeth. The packaging really caught my eye and the stripes in the paste made it that more appealing. I was expecting it to feel a little bit gritty while brushing it onto my teeth but it was actually a very smooth paste. The taste of it was minty but also had a kind of baking soda taste to it which was ok. I found it cleaned my teeth really well, I was so happy with how smooth my teeth felt after. I haven't noticed that my teeth are whiter but I would buy it again just for the great cleaning it does to my teeth without hurting my gums.

Great taste. Says what it says it will! My teeth are so much whiter after even just first use. My go go toothpaste. Left my teeth feeling smooth and clean!

Probably just gave the illusion of a deep clean but I enjoyed this toothpaste. Teeth were whitener after use.
