Um... Pinterest SUCCESS!!
I bought this to use for teeth whitening. Yup, that's right... Teeth whitening. Hellooooo Pinterest.
But guess what?
It worked.
You read it correctly... It WORKED. I'm probably one of the biggest skeptics when it comes to teeth whitening methods because frankly, I've tried so many. Baking soda, hydrogen and lemon? Fail. Strips? Nope. Toothpaste that claims it can do it fast? Meh. Gels? They're okkkkk. Who'd have thunk it that scrubbing a nasty tasting YELLOW spice on my teeth would result in WHITER teeth a few hours later?!
But it did.
See, my problem comes in that I enjoy those 'toxic' pitfalls that keep your teeth from getting pearly white. I'm not talking basic white, I'm talking paper white. Coke, coffee, etc. I use Colgate, but that only takes off daily surface stains, and doesn't seem to be actually reversing anything.
When you work in journalism, having an approachable smile is important.
Turmeric works surprisingly well.
Warning, if you like relatively bland foods like me, example pasta, steaks, chicken, potatoes, but easy on the spice, this will be unpleasant. But know you can wash your mouth out, and it will be worthwhile. I was easily two shades whiter with one use. And the best part? It's a natural spice.
No UV gel.
No chemicals.
No sensitivity.
Just whiter teeth.
Well, yellow at first... But THEN whiter!!
:D
