Would you be interested in black toilet paper?
This Renova TP apparently is a premium product, said to be “the first fashionable toilet paper.” Maybe we’ll see this on a runway. It sells for 2.17 Euros PER roll. That’s around PhP 130 or USD 3.20. I wouldn’t spend that much on toilet paper, gosh. I just use it wipe spills and stuff.
Aside from the little black roll, it also comes in red, orange and green. Maybe if it came in turquoise, I’d consider buying it. Nah.
But hey, they’d make for interesting emergency streamers. And interesting presents for those into goth or fashionistas.

Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

I will stick with the plain old white paper and good old “tabo.”

Anyway, for some reason we do have turquoise-looking toilet paper at home. At least the color’s not bright but light. I found it strange at first, especially since our toilet has maroon tiles but I got used to it. It’s refreshing to look at. ‘Jade’ ata yung brand ng toilet paper.

January 10, 2008 at 9:07 am (16 years ago)para ba itong crepe paper na pag nabasa eh nagkukulay? paano kung biglang pag-wipe mo, pagtingin mo sa kamay mo black na? you just wiped your whatever and colored it black. 😉

Or if what you’re using is entirely clean for that matter. Like you can’t even see if what you might be putting on your face or mouth is 100% immaculate.
For practical purposes I’d stay away from this product.
But, I’d love any other color as long as it makes dirt easily recognizeable.
Like neon green.

I have the nagging feeling that it will stain my butt hahaha
