I received Crest 3D Whitestrips Supreme Flexfit Teeth Whitening Strips free of charge in return for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
Ever fancied whiter teeth but don't want to shell out fortunes at the dentist? If the answer's 'Yes' then Crest may just have the answer! These whitening strips use the same whitening ingredient as the dentist, so you're guaranteed professional whitening, at a fraction of the cost.
Inside each box are 42 small packets like the one above - that's 21 treatments in total!
There are 2 strips inside each packet, one for the top teeth and one for the bottom. They look a little like clear elastoplasts!!
Make sure your teeth are clean, then you simply peel off the strips one at a time and apply them to your teeth. They are fairly stretchy so you can spread them over from the gum line, and wrap them under towards the back of your teeth. The first time I tried, I did get in a bit of a muddle, but once I sussed it, they were really easy to apply.
Once applied, you have to leave them in place for an hour - and that means no eating or drinking either! They don't look very fetching so I'd recommend making sure you won't be disturbed during the hour you have your treatment. They went little frothy beneath the strips too the longer they were in place. Admittedly, I did struggle a little as I'm very cockly and having these in my mouth was slightly uncomfortable, but I persevered!
After an hour, simply peel off the strips and throw away. I brushed my teeth after removing just to get rid of any residue left behind, although there wasn't much.
I wouldn't say that I noticed a considerable difference, but they were definitely whiter than before I used the treatment. I drink an awful lot of tea (not having one during the hours treatment nearly killed me) and as a result, my teeth are pretty badly stained so I'd probably need a few treatments to see a real difference. My teeth did however feel immaculately clean and my mouth felt really fresh.
I'd definitely recommend these if your teeth are just in need of a little pick me up or before an important event where you want to look your best, and at around £20 per box you're saving over £300 compared to seeing your dentist!
