Being Young and Cool with OraCare


Whether in or out of school, the coolest people in today’s campuses are finding out that using a mouthrinse is one of the things they can’t do without.

Miriam Yousif

Miriam Yousif is taking up Mass Communications at St. Scholastica’s College.  A talented street dancer, she has participated and won in several dancing competitions, making her a prominent campus figure. 

Miriam is part Iraqi by virtue of her mother. But while her looks are unmistakably and beautifully Pinay, her tastes are as diverse as her lineage.

"I like eating out and trying different kinds of food, especially those with a lot of spices. I used to gargle with a mouthwash only seldomly because it leaves a burning feeling in my mouth," she shares. 

These days, using OraCare Cool Mouthrinse has provided Miriam with a much better alternative to her harsh mouthwash. Its breakthrough no alcohol, no sting formulation allows her to confidently enjoy flavorful foods and drinks. 

“Now I can go about my culinary adventures without worry,” she says.


Yas Neri

If you think you have seen Yas Neri on television before, you’re correct. She is a member of ABS-CBN's Star Magic talent pool, while at the same time taking up Clothing Technology at the University of the Philippines in Diliman.

As a Star Magic talent, Yas has a lot of interviews and shoots. "I am constantly exposed to many people in the entertainment world. Good looks and talent are not everything. I also need a good disposition and pleasant-smelling breath,” says the junior student and part-time model and DJ.


Yas, however, adds that using a mouthwash can make her mouth dry.  “Good thing I discovered OraCare Cool,” she says.

Because OraCare Cool does not contain alcohol, it does not dry the mouth, the way alcohol-based mouthwashes do.

York Lagleva

Like Yas, York Lagleva is also involved in various activities, among them being a black belt in taekwondo and an active member of the Baguio Poets Club. He says that his deepest passion lies in writing. He writes often and maintains his own blog.

As a writer, York drinks a lot of coffee. “Unfortunately, coffee leaves a strong odor in my mouth which I am not fond of,” says the 19-year-old magna cum laude from the University of the Philippines Baguio.

York has since used OraCare Cool because he discovered that it leaves no strong aftertaste, unlike other alcohol-based mouthwash brands—yet, it is still very effective in eliminating unwanted mouth odors. 

“Brushing isn’t enough,” he says.  “So I always have a bottle of OraCare Cool with me wherever I go.”


Mark Agas

Mark Agas is a medical student from UST. Easily one of the best-looking men on campus, his youthful looks make him look a lot less than his true age of 24.

As a UST medical school student, Mark’s oral hygiene is crucial when dealing with patients in the hospital. 

"You earn your patients’ trust when you take good care of yourself," he explains. “A foul-smelling breath is definitely out of the question.”

That’s why Mark uses OraCare Cool regularly.  Its Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide gets rid of strong mouth odors in just one rinse. What’s more, OraCare does not have the usual sting and strong aftertaste associated with other alcohol-based mouthwashes.

Being young and active nowadays means always being on top of your game. Good thing these four cool people—Miriam, Yas, York and Mark—have each found a cool counterpart in Oracare Cool Mouthrinse.

OraCare Cool Mouthrinse is now available at all supermarkets and drugstores nationwide.
