However, it's actually the Refresh Travel Toothbrush Set that comes with a sealed plastic tray full of [single-use squeezes of toothpaste](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blind-box-toothpastes). The new Quirky product is a clever way to conceal and a compact way to store your [oral hygiene accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/something-nice) in a handbag or a pocket. Each package lasts you 14 uses for all of those moments when you need a quick emergency scrub. Importantly, of course, there is also a [small tooth brush](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/io-travel-toothbrush) nestled into the little box. It slides in snugly down the middle of the Refresh Travel Toothbrush kit where it's protected from contaminants in your briefcase. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 85% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Single-use Toothpaste Packets:** Opportunity to disrupt the oral care industry by offering convenient and portable oral hygiene solutions. - **Travel Toothbrush Sets:** Innovation potential in creating compact and discreet toothbrush kits for on-the-go oral care needs. - **Concealable Oral Hygiene Accessories:** Potential for developing discreet and easily portable oral hygiene products for everyday use. ### Where This Applies - **Oral Care Products:** Disruptive potential in the oral care industry by introducing innovative packaging and convenience-focused products. - **Travel Accessories:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the travel industry by offering compact and convenient toothbrush sets for travelers. - **Consumer Packaged Goods:** Innovation potential in the consumer packaged goods industry by creating convenient and eco-friendly single-use toothpaste packets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Toothpaste-Dispensing Toothbrushes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onedone.md) - [Pocket-Sized Mouthwash Sachets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swishables.md) - [Portable Toothbrush sanitizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clea-toothbrush-sanitizer.md) - [Self-Sterilizing Travel Toothbrushes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plover-travel-toothbrush.md) - [Aromatherapy Toothbrush Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brush-pod.md) - [Portable Teeth-Cleaning Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oclean-1.md) - [Outdoor Toothbrush Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meguru.md) - [Sanitizing Toothbrush Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultim8-travel-smartcase.md) - [Collapsible Titanium Toothbrushes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kif-toothbrush-kit.md)
