Who doesn't love a dazzling smile?! I owe a big thanks to my orthodontist and my parents for my straight teeth but I must confess, I haven't taken very good care of them color wise....I'm a big coffee drinker! I've tried bleaching trays through my dentists office (MANY years ago) and Crest White Strips but I've finally discovered something WAY more effective!
After experiencing gum sensitivity with the trays and strips and being shocked at the $600 I would have to spend at the dentist for some ZOOM whitening, I was cautious about this product, especially since I've never heard of it. I saw an ad for Luster in one of the magazines at the hair salon, so I did some research online and read all the user reviews I could find. I always, always, always read user reviews before purchasing ANYTHING online and I must say everyone was right! After only 5 applications, I noticed a difference and NO sensitivity AT ALL! You can apply it up to 20 times and are supposed to see up to a 5 shade difference. My teeth were the lightest shade of yellow on their "color chart" to begin with so I didn't have a lot of work to do. I guess I should have taken before and after pics but it just seemed kinda weird.
I doubt I'll do the full 20 applications (want to avoid that ultra bright smile from that great Friends episode...you know....when Ross' teeth glowed under the black light?.....no? o.k, moving on) but I think 10 will get me where I want to be and then it's just monthly maintenance from there.
I have no plans on giving up my Iced Lattes or the occasional iced tea so this is perfect for me!
Yeah! Now I'll "smile more because my teeth are white", I'll "be happier because I'm smiling more", "It's like a feel-good virus-before I know it, I'll be making other people smile too!" (that one really cracks me up!) and I'll look like I've "turned the clock back years, even decades"! Hey! Wait a minute....I don't look THAT old. =D
