Directions
This is a concentrated product only to be used to refill a 500 mL LISTERINE COOL MINT® ZERO Alcohol bottle with a water fill line printed on the front top label and must be diluted with water before use.
Step 1: Start by thoroughly rinsing the empty 500 mL LISTERINE COOL MINT® ZERO Alcohol bottle with drinkable water. Do not use soap or wash in the dishwasher.
Step 2: Add room-temperature, drinkable water to the water fill line shown on the front top label of the empty bottle.
Step 3: Pour one entire mouthwash concentrate into the bottle with the water. Replace cap and shake gently.
Step 4: After dilution, follow the directions for use on the 500 mL LISTERINE COOL MINT® ZERO Alcohol bottle: Rinse for 30 seconds with 20 mL (2/3 fluid ounce or 4 teaspoonfuls) morning and night. Do not swallow.
Diluted product can be used for up to 3 months after dilution.
Warnings
Children under the age of 12 should not dilute or mix the concentrate refill. Dilution by children 12 years of age or older should be under the supervision of an adult. Do not use diluted product in children under 6 years of age.
Keep out of reach of children. If more than used for rinsing is accidentally swallowed, get medical help or contact a poison control center right away.

How many full mouthwashes will I get out of each purchase of LISTERINE® mouthwash concentrate?
Both the Starter Kit and the Refill Pack allow you to mix three full 500 mL bottles of COOL MINT® ZERO. The Starter Kit comes with a full bottle of regular COOL MINT® ZERO and then you will mix the other two. The Refill Pack comes with three 100 mL concentrates that you will use to create three separate 500 mL COOL MINT® ZEROS, but to do that you will need an empty 500 mL bottle of COOL MINT® ZERO that contains a water fill line at the top. If you do not have one of those bottles, we recommend you purchase the Starter Kit to begin your more sustainable Listerine journey!
How much mouthwash concentrate do I use?
One FULL concentrate should be used with each empty 500 mL mouthwash. After rinsing your reusable 500 mL bottle, you want to fill it up with water to the water fill line and then add an entire bottle of the 100 mL concentrate.
Can I use less concentrate to make it less intense?
No, you should use a FULL bottle of 100 mL concentrate per 400 mL of water to guarantee that your newly mixed bottle of COOL MINT® ZERO is just as effective as our regular COOL MINT® ZERO. It is important to carefully read and follow the directions on the label to obtain the proper concentration. Directions for how to dilute or mix the concentrate to refill your empty bottle of COOL MINT® ZERO can be found on the back of the smaller concentrate refill bottle (100 mL). You must use one FULL bottle of 100 mL of concentrate and 400 mL of water.
What temperature should I use for the water?
When mixing the water and the concentrate, we recommend using room temperature water, so not too hot and not too cold, you want it to be juuussst right.
Does the order that I add the water or concentrate matter?
Yes, we always recommend adding the water first and then pouring in the concentrate. This allows you to make sure you are using the right amount of water to dilute the product with (400 mL as indicated by the water fill line) and avoids excess foaming.
How long/often do I need to shake the water and concentrate after I’ve mixed them?
It doesn’t take long at all! You want to gently shake the mixture of water and concentrate until they are fully blended together. Once the mixture is fully combined, you do not need to shake it again.
After shaking, what is the shelf life of the newly diluted mouthwash and does water type (tap or filtered) matter?
Once fully mixed, the diluted product doesn’t need to be shaken again and can be used for up to 3 months. As long as you are using flat, drinkable water, the efficacy and the shelf life should not be impacted by variations in the water used.
How many times can I reuse the 500 mL bottle?
If following the directions properly, you can reuse the 500 mL bottle with LISTERINE® concentrate refills for up to two years from purchase.
Can I put the bottle in the dishwasher?
No. To wash your 500 mL reusable bottle, simply rinse it thoroughly only using drinkable water. Do not use soap or wash in the dishwasher.
Can I use another container to dilute and store the product?
No, we only recommend using the 100 mL concentrates with a 500 mL bottle of COOL MINT® ZERO that contains a water fill line at the top. FOR REFILL PACK: If you do not have one of those bottles, we recommend you purchase the Starter Kit to begin your more sustainable Listerine journey!

Leaves breath fresh
Really enjoy this listerine - leaves mouth feeling cleansed and lasting good breath. The bite is pretty powerful, but that’s as expected in mouthwash.

Clean mouth
Gives you that extra clean mouth feel. I dont know if im just sensitive but this stuff still mildly burns like alcohol mouthwash for me. Could just be the extra minty-ness.

Love the starter kit
Love the starter kit, gives me small bottles, very handy. Always have used listerine for killing germs and staying on top of good oral hygiene. We always get good checkups with our dentist also.

Not recommend
I do not recommend, there is no buzz or feeling this gives off a clean fresh breath sometimes leaving a nasty aftertaste. Honestly think it doesn't work.

Best mouthwash
I’ve used listerine for years now and a few years ago I started using the zero alcohol version and I love it. It makes my mouth feel very clean and I feel confident to talk to people. It won’t make my mouth dry and won’t burn it.

This mouthwash is great to use when you need to freshen up, and of course also with your daily brushing routine. The travel size is helpful to keep in my toiletry case!

Refreshing
Listerine mouthwash is a potent and effective product that freshens breath, kills germs, and promotes oral health, but it may be too strong for some.

Great Mouthwash
The mouthwash is fresh and refreshing, helps clean well. The only thing I be careful about is the quantity I sip for gargling. The alcohol in the mouthwash gives a Burning sensation. But that's what I have observed with all the mouthwash which has alcohol in it.

Good mouthwash
It does the job that is asked of a mouthwash without the extreme burn that normally comes with a mouthwash. Typically if I don't feel the "burn" then I don't feel as if it did its job so it's a 4 star for me

cool and fresh!!
listerine is a staple in every travel bag! I like using this when I travel because its effective, and never lets me down. It burns a tiny bit if you use too much but because it is so potent it works almost TOO GOOD! This is a tried and true product that will leave your breath mint fresh and teeth clean!
