A dentifrice composition is provided that includes a polyol present as a humectant, an abrasive to clean teeth and a thickener system consisting of a low viscosity sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and a low viscosity hydroxyethyl cellulose. Preferably the dentifrice is in gel form and has the advantage of low stringiness and good phase stability.
