Toothpaste elixir
Antique pharmacy bottle

Throughout the nineteenth century and early twentieth century, the pharmacist was a true craftsman, he prepared his own remedies and lotions such as elixirs of toothpaste for example. Customers do not come to look for brands, but the formula of the local apothecary. Each pharmacy has its own laboratory at the back where it prepares its own powders, pastes and elixirs.
At the time, these alcoholic elixirs (often with mint, cinnamon or cloves) were used diluted in a glass of water as a mouthwash or directly on the toothbrush.
