Colgate---Not Just Toothpaste Anymore
Mar 15 '01
The Bottom Line Are you using a Colgate Product?
This morning I decided that I wanted to write a review on my Colgate Whitening Toothpaste, so I went in search of this topic on Epinions. I did not find a breakdown of colgate products, but I did happen to find "What Should You Know About The Colgate Brand?" Well, at the time I was a little annoyed because I couldn't find my specific brand, so I logged off of Epinions in frustration.
As the day went on, I started thinking that maybe I could do a little research on Colgate and come up with something a little more interesting than one particular toothpaste. I went to the Colgate website (www.colgate.com) and I found a lot more than I ever bargained for. I never knew that Colgate was involved in so many products. I just assumed that they made toothpaste and toothbrushes. Silly Me!! They have Oral Care Products, Personal Care Products, Fabric Care Products, Household Care Products, and Pet Nutrition Products.
Here is the EXTENSIVE list that I came up with:
ORAL CARE-
Toothpaste--There is a wide variety that includes:
Colgate Total Toothpaste

I have used many of these products including several of the toothpastes and toothbrushes I have also used some of the Palmolive, Ajax, and Speedstick products. I have to say that I have been very satisfied with each product that I've used. My husband will only use Colgate Whitening Toothpaste, so that's the brand I have been purchasing for years.
I would Highly Recommend using Colgate Products!
