Teeth Whitening

Beverly Hills Formula - Perfect White Sensitive Toothpaste

Here at The Amazing Blog, we’re always looking for ways to brighten our smile. With coffee, red wine and other teeth-staining foods, it often feels like we’ll never achieve the pearly whites that we really want. So when Beverly Hills Formula sent over their Perfect White Sensitive Toothpaste, we were keen to start brushing our way to the perfect Hollywood smile.

Helping to lift those pesky surface stains that come from drinking a little too much tea; the Freshmint flavoured paste contains Hydrated Silica, perfect for getting us closer to a brighter smile. Formulated for sensitive teeth, it also contains Potassium Citrate, so that you can still enjoy hot and cold treats without waiting for the pain to kick in. As most whitening kits increase sensitivity, a toothpaste that helps to combat both issues is a godsend in our eyes.

Beverley Hills Formula also pride themselves in the low abrasion factor of their products, helping to protect your teeth whilst you brush. We just used the toothpaste as we would any other, and have noticed that our smiles are looking a little lighter! Hopefully we will have polished our gnashers to pearly perfection in no time at all, but at least for now, we know we’re tackling our sensitivity issues.

iWhite Instant

blogAs a tea and coffee drinker myself, I often find myself with teeth envy a lot of the time, especially as so many celebs at the moment have perfected that pearly white smile. The Amazing Blog girls have been trying out a teeth whitening kit designed by iWhite to try and get our grins as striking as those individuals that caused that teeth envy in the first place…

iWhite is a gradual and gentle whitening solution due to its lack of peroxide, which is ideal if you have sensitive teeth, this often happens as we age or as we expose our mouths to things like fizzy drinks and sweets. It only takes 20 minutes so isn’t a hassle to slot into your morning and evening routine. There are lots of kits out there which require a much longer setting period, so that’s an issue iWhite have successfully avoided. The product is composed of 10 thin and flexible trays which are designed for a comfortable fit. I think it really depends on how badly stained your teeth are before hand, but don’t expect immediate results. It’s the kind of product that needs patience, and eventually you will be presented with those pearly whites you were after.

This is a great set if hygiene is important to you as it contains a new and revolutionary whitening gel which has been clinically proven to be dental safe and instantly effective. There is an 8 shade scale you can compare with, and our testers at The Amazing Blog noticed an increase of about 1 or 2 shades after the first 5 consecutive days, but if you stick with it you may see stronger results. The product is based on a unique Filmo-Crystallized Calcium technology and this is what encourages the speedy whitening effect. I am a big drinker, tea that is… My teeth aren’t naturally white either, so this is perfect for giving them a little gloss and boost of sparkle. I also have sensitive teeth, and the formula that creates this product helps to strengthen them and make that sharp sensation when eating ice cream, a little less unbearable. Both the front and the back of your teeth are whitened with this set so no strange patches to get your smile noticed for the wrong reasons.

Botanical White

With a fondness for cigarettes, coffee and too much red wine, it can be near impossible to keep teeth gleaming and hollywood white. And with professional whitening costing upwards of £500 and ongoing maintenance required, it's a luxury that few people can afford, unless they happen to be on a celebrity's wage. With a shocking percentage of home-whitening kits containing illegal levels of bleach, and side-effects including chemical burns to the mouth, gum disease and sensitive teeth, many people can pay a high price for a quick fix. However, Smile 4 You, innovators in home teeth whitening, have recently launched the first effective non-peroxide teeth whitening kit. Botanical White has been specially formulated with natural ingredients to not only whiten teeth but to also promote good oral health without causing any additional sensitivity.

I'm always sceptical when it comes to trying home treatments that promise miraculous results, but having used Botanical White for the recommended hour a day for the past fortnight, I've noticed a significant difference without any side effects. The fact that Botanical White is made up solely of natural ingredients makes it an even more obvious choice when it comes to picking the perfect kit for that hollywood smile.
