Do At Home Whitening Kits Really Work?

Alicia BiceComment

Hey y’all, long time no talk! Not sure if you follow along on my YouTube channel, but in October I did 13 Days of Halloween where I did 13 Halloween makeup looks in a row, then I was doing Vlogmas in December, then I got sick. Now that it is a new year, I am playing catch up with everything else. I really want to get back to posting more on my blog this year and my YouTube channel, so be sure to subscribe to my YouTube and my blog newsletter so you don’t miss out on all the fun things coming!

In today’s post I wanted to share my experience with an at home teeth whitening kit. I’ve been skeptical on if they really work, so I wanted to try one out to let y’all know if it works or not.

I have went in and out of phases with liking my smile. I used to have a gap between my two front teeth that I didn’t like, but in middle school I got braces so then that was fixed. I was so excited because I was finally happy and confident with my smile. Well, then I got older and realized how amazing coffee was and got a little addicted, haha. I started feeling a little self conscious again because they were starting to look a little stained. With my job I deal with the public and I help people with makeup, so I’m always in people’s faces and I feel like they look at my teeth.

There are so many different whitening strips and whitening tooth pastes out there and you really never know if they work. Smile Brilliant, which is a company that offers different teeth whitening kits, reached out to me and asked if I wanted to try one of their kits. I thought it would be perfect, because I could try it out and be happy with my smile again and let y’all know if it was good and worth it! You know I am always honest with y’all, so I want to tell you what I thought about the kit!

One thing I love about this kit is you make the molds of your mouth yourself. After you make them you send it back to Smile Brilliant in a prepaid envelope that comes in your kit, and they send you back custom trays. I feel like that makes them different from other kits because it fits your mouth perfectly. Once you get the trays back you start the process. The kit comes with a whitening gel and a desensitizing gel that helps with sensitivity and future staining. The whitening gel bothered my gums a little, but I just skipped a couple of days in between and they suggested rubbing coconut oil on my gums before hand and that helped! I also love how easy it is to whiten because you just apply the gel in the trays and put them in. I popped them in while I was doing laundry, dishes, or watching Netflix! I can tell that my teeth have gotten whiter and I can’t wait to keep using it to see even better results. I will insert my before and after pictures here.
