Customer reviews of Orinko

I have been using Meswak toothpaste for years, which I discovered during a trip to India and which contains Siwak, but I had never used it directly as a chewing stick.6 sticks arrive in a small box, each one wrapped in individual plastic.I sent an email to the address noted on the packaging and I received a few hours later the instructions for use in PDF format with advice and information on the plant. Contrary to what I thought, it is not a piece of branch but the root of the Salvadora Persica shrub.when I opened it, the smell is quite surprising, even unpleasant and the stick is wet. I preferred to let it rest one day in the open air before using it.the aspect makes me think of the candy sticks that I give to my dog to clean his teeth... The use is rather simple. You can chew or cut the end of the stick on 1 cm. The small fibers of the tip are similar to a toothbrush. One passes them then under water, not need of toothpaste... You just have to use it like a toothbrush from top to bottom. The taste is slightly bitter and the stick tends to leave some small hairy residues in the mouth but I recognize that my teeth are smoother and less yellowed by my consumption of tea and coffee. But it will not replace my electric toothbrush (or manual) because it does not allow to clean between the teeth. I use it mainly in the evening (2 to 3 times/week) after my brushing for a better dental hygiene and also on the tongue. It is recommended to do it during 5 mn. Since I use it, I noticed that my teeth were whiter. I really like this ecological concept which allows me to use it at the office in all discretion for a better breath and dental hygiene.

Meets my expectations. Good packaging. I recommend

Having spent some time in Africa, I am used to these wooden sticks that fray and are used as toothbrushes there.These sticks are not of the same wood as the one used in Mali.They are delivered in individual packaging.At the opening, we have a certain smell, which goes away quickly though.We have to remove the bark on about 1 cm, the wood inside frays, we can then brush our teeth with it (and not just bite it).It is efficient, teeth are smoother. On the other hand, we find ourselves with a lot of small residues of wood in the mouth, which is not the case with the traditional sticks that I was able to use before.On the principle, therefore, it is yes, but defects in these sticks.

Perfect to put in the tank of my espresso machine to purify the water of the chlorine taste.it works well is the coffee to a better quality and taste.

This product meets my expectations. Very good quality/price ratio. I haven't tested it personally but my kids use it and like it. I recommend this product.

Item as described, easy to use

perfect when I can't use a toothbrush, these sticks are really good. reusable and organic.

these activated carbon sticks fit perfectly in a bottle thanks to their elongated format.they play perfectly their roles of filters for the water and allows to bring a neutral taste to an average water.I use them every day and we feel the difference.

I do not know this plant Siwak, and I discover here! 6 sticks are individually vacuum packed, and it is indeed a plant. You chew to get the fiber out, and you brush with it. It is difficult to reach the bottom of the teeth inside, but where we arrive it cleans well and there is a taste a little minty very subtle and pleasant feeling in the mouth. It is a good initiative to think about the planet and the natural health!

Eliminating little by little everything disposable, I turned to the oriculi to finish with the cotton buds. This product is easy to use, economical and ecological. The products arrived in good condition, despite the fact that they were sent in a slightly reinforced zipped pocket. A small flat bamboo case would have been nice, especially if you need to carry them, but the zippered pocket will also do the job. I chose this brand because it participates in the fight against deforestation in the Amazon, so it's an extra gesture in favor of the environment. I recommend this product.

Very good product, the tap water where I live is full of limestone. When I fill a glass of water, there is like a persistent fog. After I put the stones in, it disappeared. I don't have the taste of chlorine?

The siwak or "araq wood" is the root of the shrub salvadora persica used as a natural toothbrush, the siwak has purifying properties recognized, it cleans the mouth and helps to take care of the gums.It's quite particular I must say, it reminded me a bit of potato when rubbing against the teeth and gums and even the tongue.Anyway, it's not unpleasant and it smooths the teeth well, it's a good alternative between 2 brushings or as a complement.I like the concept very much, and I saw that with siwak powder, we can make our own toothpaste.It cleans teeth on pivots or braces just as well.

It is about 25 ceramic pearls to improve the quality of water.French brand but made in Japan, too bad.Ideal when we have a hard water as at home.I placed them in the water tanks of my coffee maker and my kettle.It is still necessary to put a certain number.To see in time for the effectiveness.Good ecological alternative.I hope that this comment will be useful to you, if you have questions do not hesitate.

I am delighted with this purchase, a pdf document is sent to better know the product, learn to use it properly and take care of it. The product is as expected, used correctly there is no reason for it not to last over time. One more step towards waste reduction.

As a child, I didn't learn to clean my tongue in addition to my teeth when I brushed. I discovered as an adult that it's important for breath too.these tongue scrapers are simple and well designed.they are easy to use and effective.

I just gave my filter cartridges to my neighbor, now my water carafes that it is Brita or others (I have several) I will put only these ceramic beads to purify tap water, these filters were polluting and expensive, now these ceramic beads replace them advantageously.I didn't buy plastic bottles for several years, but I still had my Brita style filtered water carafes, there finish.... that pure and non-polluting water.especially that the water is as good as mineral water after putting a ceramic bead in the carafe.and I use them for my steam appliances: coffee maker, iron steam washing.

They are sticks coming from the root of an African shrub, and they should be used as an alternative to toothbrush and toothpaste. I want to use them as an emergency solution when I can't brush my teeth after each meal, but it won't make me give up my toothbrush ritual. It's nice to chew, but I don't think it's very efficient. It's difficult to evaluate!

These siwak sticks to be used for teeth cleaning are quite a discovery. In a cardboard box, we have 6 sticks of about 15 cm vacuum packed. The objective is to use a natural material to remove the use of plastic toothbrushes, toothpaste and the waste that can go with it. It is a dental wood obtained from the root of the Salvadora persica shrub. Before brushing, it is necessary to remove the bark on 1cm then to fray the root. Brushing is done without toothpaste by passing the threads on the teeth and chewing the stick. It is just necessary to be soft with the approach of the gums but the wood is flexible and soft. After a few minutes, while doing something else at a desk for example, the surface of the teeth becomes smooth, the breath clear with a very light taste between mint and licorice. The hardest part is to pass in the interstices of the teeth.despite that, in the end, you really have the impression to have washed your teeth!

I was afraid that the taste would bother me but nn cava .merci.tres satisfied with the packaging

I am very satisfied with the qualities of this virtuous product

Easy to use and very good quality, a nice gesture for the environment, I highly recommend

an excellent alternative to the cotton swab,I did not know and it is a pity,material which requires a certain learning for auricular care otherwise.the material is moreover aesthetic and pleasant.the EBOOK joined to the purchase by the salesman is very useful and is an excellent attention of the salesman.I recommend this durable product.thank you

Neutralize the taste of tap water, easy to use. To be seen in time, less pronounced taste but still there unfortunately.

Nice and efficient product. Small guide of use provided with the oriculis for an adapted use. I recommend

5 oriculi sent with each one a color. One for each member of the family, it is practical, hygienic, ecological and efficient. Very good contact with the seller. I received a small pdf that explains very well how to optimize the use of the oriculi. I am delighted and I recommend it.

I was not a big fan of rubbing my tongue with a normal toothbrush and I did not know this type of product.I am really satisfied with the product and its functioning, I never really had a sensation of clean tongue and since then, it is perfect.Ok rubs 2/3 times on the tongue in the external direction of the mouth and you just have to rinse it (before and after use).in the morning, I have less the sensation of a pasty mouth and during the day, I have better sensation to the tastes.I price is very correct for 3 utensils to make it benefit to its family.

3 copper tongue scrapers, easy to use, specially designed to offer you a simple device for a better tongue hygiene.

Very happy with this purchase

Much better than the plastic one in terms of durability and hygiene! No metal taste and rounded just right and doesn't hurt. In addition it is a very good price for a set of 3! However, I did not receive the guide (ebook) by mail. Should we do something on our side?

A little confusing when we receive the product, but we received by mail an ebook that explains very clearly the use. The design of the product is very nice.

I like the fact that they are sticks which makes it easy to put them in a carafea big thank you for the e-book because even if I know the use of this product that I bought in organic store it is very well done and very clearI recommend

I've been looking for some time to stop using the classic cotton swabs for something more natural and long lasting. I'm so glad I bought these Oriculis!

At the top for quality water at a lower cost.

I didn't see where to go for the ebook. I went to the supplier's site for information: use in the morning, clean with soapy water and occasionally with vinegar to prevent rust.

10 sticks of 16 cm bamboo activated carbon stored in a cardboard box and well protected.these bamboo activated carbon sticks are a good compromise to filter tap water naturally. Not only do these sticks filter chemicals such as benzene, chlorine, nitrate. .... but they also provide tap water with calcium, potassium, magnesium. ...The use is easy. One stick is enough to purify a bottle of water and can be used for about 2 months.before the first use, and after 2 or 4 weeks of use, it is necessary to boil the activated carbon stick for 10 minutes. It is enough then to place it in a bottle filled with drinking water of the tap and to wait 1 hour minimum and 4 hours it is better to be able to drink it.the - the origin of the bamboos is not specified. We only know that the bamboo comes from a family forest managed in a responsible way.1% of the sales is donated to a reforestation program.top for drinking water but also great for filtering the water of fish in an aquarium.

I bought it to purify my tap water, very practical, to be placed directly in the water carafe. The little extra, an e-book provided.

Super productDelivery nickel with a day in advance so good surprise! The packaging is really nice, sober, elegant with colors that recalls the nature. The packaging is really nice, sober, elegant with colors that recall nature. Moreover, on the back it is indicated that we can receive an ebook and the mail to make the request.For the products: the wood can surprise at first when we are used to plastic but the grip is good and the contact is pleasant.I would have liked perhaps that the bristles of the toothbrush are a little harder (and still there is a detail because it brushes really well) but otherwise the experience is totally validated.For the oriculi, it's soft and no grip that could hurt the entrance of the ear.Two points to improve according to me, namely the length of the stem that seems long to me and the colored bow that I would have preferred in cotton to perfect the article.I am completely convinced by this 0 waste pack that combines beauty, quality and preservation of our planet.I recommend!

Set of 3 tongue scrapers accompanied by its canvas storage pouch.the tongue scrapers are 100% copper and this material has anti-bacterial properties, however after each use make sure to clean and dry it well.they are very easy to use just scrape the tongue from the bottom to the edge, this is painless and sufficient to remove the deposit that may be on the tongue and that may be difficult to reach with a toothbrush.Can be suitable for the biggest as for the smallest because it is harmless for the tongue and the mouth, that leaves a sensation of clean and contributes to keep a fresh breath.I did not know and I am conquered by the product, I recommend
