Last week I shared with you my desire to have a whiter and brighter smile while I was out celebrating my 32nd birthday this past weekend. Click here to read my first post. Not only was I going to pamper myself by having a nice healthy looking smile but a new hair cut and style were also at the top of the pampering list. The Crest whitestrips are so portable and I made sure to pack one in my purse before I left on my weekend getaway. After a five hour road trip I made it to my hotel and I was ready rock the weekend and celebrate with my family and friends.
One thing that I always notice about my closest girl friends is that they have really bright smiles. They work at it though. They use the whitestrips all the time to have those nice pearly whites. I on the otherhand am more of a procrastinator and hated the idea of having to use the whitestrips all the time. That’s why from the moment I heard about the Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips I knew that I had to try them for myself.

My Results
I knew that I needed a full two hours to get the full affect of the Crest 3D 2 Hour White Express Whitestrips. As pathetic as it is, I pretty much take two hours to get ready before I go anywhere so I figured that using the whitestrips while I got ready was the perfect use of time. Plus I wouldn’t be hungry or tempted to eat because when I am in getting ready mode I don’t stop for snacks. Which is really important when using the whitestrips because it is suggested that you not eat. All though I don’t see how you could or why you would want to try.
So I was a little nervous about using them because I was afraid that a super white formula would have a funky taste and I wouldn’t be able to handle it. After I applied the whitestrips I was relieved to find that they had no taste at all. It did take a minute to get used to the whitestrips on my teeth but I got over it quickly because I was in getting ready mode and I needed to get a move on if I was going to make my hair appt. I was surprised to find that the whitestrips never felt like they were going to come off. I killed two hours quickly by showering, figuring out what I was going to wear to the salon and then later that evening, doing my makeup and somewhat doing my hair before my appt.
When the two hours was up I was so excited to take the whitestrips off and reveal a bright white smile! Let me tell you… those strips were on tight! I thought that I could just slide them off into a napkin without anyone at my breakfast noticing but that wasn’t possible. I had to actually pick a corner with my fingernail and pull them off. When they came off both my husband and I coudn’t believe how white my smile was!
Here are my before and after pictures.
Pretty amazing results right? I think so! I have been doing a little smile upkeep by also using the Crest 3D Whitening Toothpaste. Overall I am very impressed with this product and I would definitely recommend it. I did notice that my teeth looked the whitest and brightest right after removing the whitening strips. Once I ate the brightness faded a little bit. I wish that they could have stayed super bright longer. I can definitely see how using these strips just prior to an event would be the best use of them. I will definitely be using them in the future for my next event that I am looking to dazzle folks with my smile. Even though the brightness faded a little my teeth are still much whiter and brighter than they were. I am very pleased with my results!
