What happens when you are on road trip for too long? Your toothbrush gets all cruddy, and full of dried toothpaste. But that’s what the eye can see, imagine all the bacteria that is growing while being in your luggage and toiletry bag?
Ok, so some of you might not consider this a problem, but I do. With two little boys, I am always thinking about where else can they encounter unwanted bacteria. That’s when I began a search for a portable toothbrush sterilizer.
I know, quite random. But they exist!
That’s how found Violife. The company was created in 2004, and just a year later its products started winning awards. The company is focused on designing and selling sanitizers for items like toothbrushes and cell phones that use UV light.

Violife Portable Toothbrush Sanitizer
The Travel UV Sanitizer is a toothbrush sanitizer that combines its metallic finish and UV light to get rid of 99.9% of germs. It comes with a toothbrush, but its design also holds other commercial toothbrushes and small electric toothbrush heads.
My Take on it
This little apparatus is the same size as a toothbrush holder but does magic to your toothbrush in minutes. It does require batteries, but they last a long time.
I was able to get this in my toiletry bag and rotate our toothbrushes with no problem.
Honestly, it is one of those handy items that you never thought of having. But when you have it, you wonder how did you live without it all this time.

You can buy their products on Amazon of course. However, I prefer going directly to their website. There seems to always be a good sale going on and also discounts.

Interesting concept – never knew this existed. A great essential for long-term travel and I’m really funny about my toothbrush and germs!
This is such a GREAT idea. I’m so glad you shared this! This is something I would seriously consider buying.
