WEEKLY MUST-HAVE: Colgate's Wisp

How many times have you been out to dinner, noshing on a spinach dish, afterwards wishing for a toothbrush as you stare at mouth full of green remnants?

Well, wish no more.

I may be the last one to jump on this bandwagon, so if you're like me, allow me to introduce you to the most amazing new invention since travel-sized Aquaphor: Colgate Wisp -- toothbrushes on-the-go.

Here's how it works: The Wisp is small enough to carry in your purse and has a built-in freshening bead to the head of the toothbrush. Once you start brushing -- no need for water -- the bead bursts and the freshening liquid releases, like toothpaste for fresh, clean breath. No rinsing required! The opposite side of the head has a soft pick like a toothpick to reach in between hard to reach spaces -- to really clean that spinach from the cracks of your teeth!

I'm so obsessed, I use it instead of gum. The brushing on-the-go sensation is one of those things that you shouldn't do and that's why it's so thrilling to actually do. Although note to selves: better done in a bathroom stall or a car or taxi.

Wisp comes in 4 flavors: coolmint, cinnamint, spearmint and peppermint (my fave). 2 per package.
