You might wish to try this in a smaller purchase before this bulk purchase, as I found the side effect of this to be annoying. While it does burn less than the regular Listerine, it uses something that causes slight peeling of the skin in my mouth. The only other product that does this and has a similar taste/texture in the mouth is Crest Pro Health. This effect is not immediately obvious to me, but 30 minutes or so later I may find myself at work feeling like there is something in my mouth-almost like a piece of wet tissue if you've ever had a tooth pulled or had gauze in your mouth. I put my finger in there to trace it out, and sure enough, it's a small wadded up piece of white peeled skin.

It's not bad enough to not use the product, but it is strange, and you can feel the entire texture of the mouth where the skin is going to peel feel dry and rough before it happens. Other than this one disturbing feature, the mouthwash does what it should, freshens breath, and otherwise works. Since I have no evidence that this happens to many people I have rated it 3 stars instead of 5, but if this is something everyone experiences, I'd probably rate it even lower.

My summary here is to try this in a small purchase first before committing to the bulk buy.

I'm not a fan of gargling hot lava first thing in the morning. So I have long considered Listerine a kind of necessary evil. Yeah, it'll kill the germs and make everything minty fresh. In the process, it will slap you awake with the unadulterated sting of hot alcohol-on-flesh action. Every morning I found myself hearing the infamous Ralph Wiggum quote ricocheting through my mind: "Tastes like burning!"

Enter Listerine Zero. I was skeptical when I learned about this alcohol-free product which claimed to be gentle and pleasing on the delicate innards of my face. "Mouthwash without the burn?!" I yelled incredulously at no one in particular, chuckling at the nonsense of it all. BURNING is how mouthwash works, you see. The alcohol stings everything in your mouth, including bad breath germs. We live. The germs die. It is the natural order of things.

Well folks, I don't know how the good people behind Listerine have done it, but they really have delivered on their promise. I took a swig. I swished the pleasant light blue concoction around in my mouth. I noticed a slight tingling sensation but nothing like the burning of years past. Afterward, my breath was indeed minty fresh, and all was right with the world.

True story: After using Listerine Zero, I went out on a date with a pretty girl and got a kiss at the end of it. I have no idea if the two were related, but the Listerine definitely didn't hurt!

(There is only one problem with this product, and that is the insane grammatical error plastered on the front of the bottle: "Proven to kill germs that cause bad breath on contact." Most people probably won't care, but I don't much like the smell of misplaced modifiers in the morning. So I've penciled in an ellipsis after "breath," and now I can breathe easy again.)

In conclusion: Get the mouthwash. Seriously, you no longer need to put up with regular Listerine, which slaps you in the face before it tells you it loves you. Love doesn't have to hurt anymore. It's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault.

I was so happy when I saw this product on the store shelves. I love the long-lasting fresh breath that Listerine gives me but I really can't handle the burn. I had switched to Crest Pro-health at some point, but stopped using it when I found it was staining my teeth. I've now been using Listerine Zero since September and foudn that I can keep it in my mouth for way longer than 30 seconds because it doesn't burn and tastes really good. My breath stays fresh all day even longer than when I use normal Listerine, maybe because I use the product more often. My dentist even commented recently than my gums look better than they did during my last visit. I hope they never discontinue this I love it.

I just bought this from a local store (smaller bottle). I just tried it and love it! It does not burn at all. It leaves my mouth (including the inside of my cheeks) cool-feeling (temperature-wise) and fresh. I would prefer a stronger mint taste but it's nearly perfect as it is! It certainly smells like typical mint listerine. All in all I'm confident that it's killing germs and freshening my breath. I highly recommend you at least give this a try.

I have always used the regular alcohol-based listerine mouthwash before I went to bed for more than 5 years, but then I decided to try this when it was on sale. It was probably a poor decision when I bought the large size because I started to get inner mouth peeling when I woke up every morning. I ignored it the first few days, but it just got progressively worse as I continued to use it throughout the weeks. I finally reached the point when I need to alternate days I'm using this now because I feel like the mouthwash is weakening my inner mouth skin and gums. Here is an overall summary of pros/cons I have found:

Pros:

1) As advertised, zero alcohol means no burning whatsoever

Cons:

1) Inner mouth peeling! A thin film develops over your gums and teeth, and the skin of your inner mouth becomes loose. [Read below for advice]

2) I personally do not get a clean, minty aftertaste I used to get with the alcohol-based listerine. It feels like I rinsed my mouth with water and it still feels dirty.

Recommendation: Do not buy this if you are comfortable with the regular alcohol-based listerine already, there is no additional benefit to switching to this type. If you do have problems with the irritation from the alcohol-based listerine, I would recommend this. HOWEVER, I would suggest that you rinse your mouth with a couple cups of water after using this to wash off residual mouthwash that will cause inner mouth peeling later. This will not completely remove the side effect, but it will reduce it. Another suggestion is to try a trial-size before buying the large size to be sure you are comfortable with using this.
