Before Launches Brilliant Breath MouthWash

North America's First Fully Home Compostable Mouthwash in Plant-Based Vivomer Packaging

VANCOUVER, BC, June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Before, a leader in clean oral care and award-winning toothpaste, proudly announces the launch of Before Brilliant Breath MouthWash, a next-generation rinse designed to elevate breath freshness while supporting a balanced and healthy oral microbiome.

Marking a major innovation milestone, it is the first mouthwash in North America packaged in fully home compostable, plastic-free Vivomer, made entirely from plants.

Formulated with Before's signature SuperMint flavor, Brilliant Breath delivers an instant cooling boost and long-lasting freshness you can feel immediately. Unlike conventional mouthwashes that rely on alcohol and harsh ingredients that can strip the oral microbiome, Before Brilliant Breath MouthWash is formulated without alcohol, peroxide, SLS, parabens, or dyes, offering a clean, gentle, and super fresh rinse.

"We've always believed fresh breath shouldn't come at the expense of your oral health," said Steve Thorp, CEO and Co-Founder of Before. "Traditional mouthwash can feel like a fire drill for your mouth. Brilliant Breath brings the cool, long-lasting freshness people love, but in a microbiome-friendly formula that actually supports your teeth and overall mouth health."

Sea salt helps sweep away debris for cleaner teeth and gums, while hyaluronic acid, aloe, zinc, and vitamin C work together to nourish oral tissues and promote microbiome balance.

"Vivomer represents a new generation of materials designed to work in harmony with nature," said Amir Afshar, Co-Founder, Shellworks. "We're proud to collaborate with Before to bring this innovation to oral care, proving that high-performance packaging can be made entirely from plants, be entirely stable in use and yet safely return to the earth at end of life."
