Europeans have a leg up on the U.S. when it comes to fashion, coffee and, surprisingly, toothpaste. Yes, toothpaste. Although it’s been seven years since I lived in Italy, I still religiously use the Marvis Whitening Mint Toothpaste, a drugstore staple that keeps my pearly whites blinding better than any other option I’ve tried.
When I first came back to the states after my year abroad, I stocked up on dozens of tubes. (TSA was definitely suspicious about the copious amounts of toothpaste in my luggage. . . oops.) I had been plotting my next trip to Italy to stock up again, only to discover that Marvis is available on Amazon and can arrive at my door in just two days.

I’ve been in need of some heavy-duty whitening recently. I stopped drinking alcohol this year, so I haven’t had to worry about red wine staining my teeth, but coffee has quickly become my new vice. I’m at the point where I need two cups a day to function, and my smile has been suffering from the consequences. While my teeth aren’t yellow by any means, they don’t quite sparkle like they used to. I have one dilemma, though. Because I have receding gums, I need a whitening toothpaste that won’t cause sensitivity or irritation. Both Crest and Colgate have left my mouth sore. Marvis is the only toothpaste that keeps me comfortable.
You won’t find standard fluoride in Marvis toothpaste. Instead, this unique cleaner utilizes xylitol, a naturally occurring sugar that reduces plaque and strengthens teeth. Cleaning your teeth with sugar might sound counterintuitive, but it’s the secret sauce that makes this toothpaste stand out. Plus, this ingredient gives the paste a satisfyingly foamy texture as I brush, which leaves my mouth feeling extra squeaky clean.
Very few of my friends have heard of Marvis, but the brand has been a staple amongst supermodels for years and it’s quickly gaining traction on Amazon. Over 9,000 shoppers have waxed poetic about the fast results they’ve experienced. “This product is great, I can see why models use this,” one Amazon shopper wrote. “It tastes great and, most importantly, really whitens your teeth. They feel really clean after using this toothpaste. I love the extra wide cap to stand up the toothpaste.”
If you have deep-set stains and feel like you’ve tried everything, give Marvis Whitening Mint Toothpaste a whirl. It may just bring you one step closer to a blinding smile like it did for me.
