Bonjour lecteurs! What is your top secret to keep up smiling? I’ve never really thought much about my oral care routine before. I have always been doing it without thinking about it. But getting older sucks! My teeth are not as good as they used to be… So when I got challenged to test the LISTERINE® Nightly Reset, it was time to rethink it all. Fancy reading my thoughts on this nice mouthwash? This is how I got rethinking my oral care routine with LISTERINE® Nightly Reset!
My Frenchie Oral Care
My mum did a great job with me. She was very strict and it was brushing time three times a day. To be fair, I was too scared to end up at the dentist, so I was always making sure that I was brushing my teeth. C’est simple!
Later on (and thanks to the French NSH which is way better, sorry to say!), I got braces. All pretty much covered by the equivalent French NHS.
Unlike my brother, I was rarely at the dentist. I always had a good smile with white teeth.
Still Rocking It In My Twenties
Once I arrived in the UK, I was your typical Frenchie cliché. I did not pay too much attention to my oral care. Even worse (not proud of it!), I was a chain smoker.
In my opinion, it is very much cultural to be fair. I cleaned them at least twice a day and would constantly floss. The dentist is not so much of a luxury in France and I would regularly get a checkup when I was back there. It was not a big deal and part of my life.
Some people might disagree with it, but I reckon all the tea British people drink doesn’t help in that department either.
And Then I Got Old…
Until recently, I was proud of my smile and thought I had some great oral care in place. For me, it was all due to basics: brushing your teeth regularly, flossing, and do a checkup at my Frenchie dentist once a year with a good clean.
But let me tell you… Getting old sucks! Now in my thirties, it is not the same.
And even worse, I noticed that my teeth were getting a bit more yellowish than usual. I don’t smoke anymore and I have a pretty healthy diet.
Grumpy Boyfriend recently went to a new dentist and it appeared that eating too much fruit exposes your teeth to sugar acids! And your teeth then become more vulnerable to cavities…
LISTERINE® Nightly Reset
My partner kept going on and on about using a good mouthwash. I have never personally been a huge fan… I did not like the after taste in my mouth. But because I got to hate my smile, I decided to give it a go.
So what is it exactly?
LISTERINE® Nightly Reset is a formula that works while you sleep to fight the effects of the day. Thanks to its level of fluoride, it helps remineralizing enamel. Used before and after sleep, it also cleans deeply your mouth.
It helps you to reduce plaque build-up and germs too. More importantly, it reduces acid production in your mouth.
LISTERINE® Nightly Reset – My Review
So I have been trying it for over a week now and I must say that I changed my mind about such products!
It feels fresh in the mouth and it is not too sweet. My teeth look better and they feel stronger too!
I like using it in my routine before and after sleep. Another thing I like? My mouth feels fresher when I wake up! Exit the super bad breath you have when you wake up in the morning.
That was a réel succés!
Converted to LISTERINE®
Am I converted to LISTERINE®? Hell yes! You are off to see the Frenchie smiling more!
I am so happy to have tried this. It reaches places a toothbrush won’t and my mouth really feels cleaner! Such a big difference!
I was always so weary when Grumpy Boyfriend was swearing by his mouthwash! En plus, its milder taste is really nice. It doesn’t smell too much and I don’t feel the need to rinse my mouth again after using it.
Will you make the change too for a brighter and healthier smile? Rethink your Oral Care Routine now with LISTERINE® Nightly Reset! It is truly a game-changer!

we have gum disease in our family, mum lost all her teeth aged 30, so I have always been very strict with oral hygiene, will try this out
I have gum disease and regular visits to the dental hygienist seem to be keeping me going but this blog is very interesting and I will give Listerine a try.
Listerine is great stuff I’ve used it lots over the years I’ve lost some teeth due to gum disease I really think this helps to keep it at bay looking after the rest of my teeth and gums
I love this brand – going to give this product a go. Thanks!
Not tried this one yet – do like Listerine!
Nice brand
Sounds good. Might try It!
I think that I could do with updating my routine too, I’ll ask when I go to the dentist soon
Although familiar with the Listerine brand, I had never heard of this particular product. It sounds incredibly helpful, especially for those who have lost enamel despite regular brushing and flossing.
You owe a debt of gratitude to your mother for teaching you such an excellent oral care routine. Such a shame that not all children are taught the same.
This sounds good will have to give this a try.
defo giving this a try
This looks well worth a try!
I’ve not seen this in the shops, will have to have a better look. It sounds like something that could really help me.
A fresher breathe in the morning is appealing. I do not floss enough, this is a good reminder to not take my teeth for
granted!
Must have a look tomorrow for this and give it a try, we don’t use mouth wash and we need to start.
I love this brand!
I’ll give it a go
Looks good…..adds to shopping list!
we have the normal listerine i didnt know they did this, will have to look out for it
Would love to try it
Wow might have to give this a go
I think after reading your review I must give this a try,
I love this brand, thank you for your review, great read xxx
I prefer Co-op own brand as it’s cruelty-free
Sounds good
Can’t beat a bit of listerine!
Oh my goodness I really cant wait to try this!
thank you for the review I will put listerine on my shopping list
I wasnt a fan either before but i might try this out now!
I always use listerine and will definitely pick this up next time shopping x
Looks good – might try it. I heard that rinsing your mouth with water after eating helps to get rid of food, etc. And to add this to your dental routine. I tend to forget though!
I’ve not heard of this one, but it sounds like something worth trying, I’ll be looking out for it next time I do my food shop, thanks.
I use normal listerine will have to hunt this out, looks very good
I always use a mouthwash last thing at night. This one sounds good, will have to give it a try.
Im going to try this. Other mouth washes I have tried just dont do the trick, this looks brill!!xx
I always use mouth wash as part of my dental routine, this looks interesting
Always use Listerine not tried this 1
I really need to try this.
Not tried this before
My dentist is always impressed at how well I clean my teeth, but I do have acid erosion so maybe this could help me!
love the fact that it has a milder taste, I’m not too keen on the strong tasting mouthwashes
seems a great product im definately going to try it
Great blog post.
