Crest White Strips ... Again! | Review


    After my last trial of the Crest White Strips (Crest 3D White No Slip Supreme Flexfit Whitestrips, which claim to whiten "like a $500 professional treatment"), I told you all I would probably try it out again with a different type. Reason being you ask... because though they definitely whitened my teeth, no one was noticing. If I am whitening my teeth for an hour every night for 21 nights, someone better notice! Back to the drawing board I went and I tried out the Crest 3D White Luxe Whitestrips Glamorous White. These particular white strips come with 14 treatments to be done for a half hour every night. Comparatively, in the Glamorous White kit you are getting one less week of treatments and doing half the time per treatment. So, what does this mean? Better or worse?
     The Glamorous White retails for $34.99 and the Supreme Flexfit retails for $44.99 -- so each treatment of the Glamorous White costs roughly $2.50 whereas the Supreme Flexfit costs about $2.15. Lets get into some specs...

Glamorous White:
          - Removes 10 years of tough set-in stains
          - Lasts 6 months & beyond
          - $34.99 for 14 treatments (30 minutes per treatment)

Supreme Flexfit:
          - Whitens like a $500 professional treatment
          - Lasts 18 months & beyond
          - $44.99 for 21 treatments (60 minutes per treatment)

     I think overall the Supreme Flexfit is the better buy. You get more whitening time with better guarantees, and if it doesn't work you can get your money back by sending in the UPC with your receipt (so hang onto it)! I did go through the Supreme Flexfit prior to the Glamorous White which may have aided in my current results, but I do think they are whiter now than when I finished the Supreme kit... so the Glamorous White still works! Below I included my 'Before' and 'After' photos... so for now, I will take another break. Perhaps in the new year I'll attempt the Supreme kit again. I want super white teeth, okay? Super white!

Crest White Strips | Review

     Hello everyone! Happy Fall! I am so excited it is finally here... October is my favorite month in terms of the weather in the North Eastern United States. Of course I am not here to talk about the weather, but I figured it needed a quick shout out. Today's post is about Crest Whitestrips... focusing on my experience and results! I purchased the Crest 3D White No Slip Supreme Flexfit Whitestrips, which claim to whiten "like a $500 professional treatment."

     In the kit you receive 42 strips (21 upper and 21 lower) for a total of 21 treatments. These treatments are to be done for an hour once daily and "will not whiten caps, crowns, veneers, fillings or dentures." There are a few mentions about the product in regards to effects and if you should be using it. The possible side effects of usage are tooth sensitivity and gum discomfort, which I did experience but it was mild and is not permanent. If you use the whitestrips and your teeth feel sensitive or you experience gum discomfort, Crest recommends you stop usage for 2-3 days. If you are questioning if whitestrips are safe for your teeth (especially if you are in need of or have dental work) please ask your dentist!

     The flexfit strips fit comfortably on the teeth and are not to be used on loose teeth, restorations, or braces. The strips use peroxide (an enamel-safe ingredient) to whiten the teeth, and occasionally you may notice white spots on the teeth after use. I did not notice any spots on my teeth but Crest notes that the spots are temporary and will go away! The whitestrips definitely work and my teeth are definitely whiter, however I want a more noticeable change... so I will probably give my teeth a break and do it again in 2-4 weeks!

     Please use Crest whitestrips as directed. There are various kinds and coupons, I purchased mine at Target with a coupon from Cartwheel (it brought my box down to $49.99). If you are interested in seeing my chompers in action, I do have a YouTube video up focusing on the strips as well, just click the YouTube social icon in the header!
