Both of these unique ingredients are paired with farm-grown mint and [activated charcoal sourced from sustainable bamboo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charcoal-toothpaste1). Thanks to the inclusion of activated charcoal, the teeth will temporarily appear very dark—Hello suggests that users "look in the mirror, dig [their] black teeth and take a selfie."
