Are you ready for the great college move-in? Soon kids across the country will be packing up their cherished possessions and moving into college to start (or continue) their next chapter of life. Sigh….As a parent, I feel like a seasoned pro since Gabrielle will be heading back to Boston once again to start her final year of college.

The college experience from the search to the final choice to the actual move in is quite a process. It’s a rollercoaster ride of emotions for the entire family. It’s a new experience for everyone and most likely your child’s first time away from home. And, your first time without them at home. For us, we wanted Gabrielle to have consistency and all the essentials to make her home away from home awesome. Amongst that list of personal essentials that she stocks up on for college is LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE.

It was important for Gabby to stick to the same skin care and oral hygiene regimen while away. She takes great care of her teeth. Kudos to her for not having one cavity yet. Her oral care routine includes LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE ZERO ALCOHOL Mouthwash. Gabby uses it twice a day to help prevent cavities, strengthen her teeth and kill bad breath germs. It has a less intense minty flavor too which she prefers.
