I, like everybody else wants perfectly white teeth.
However I don't fancy sitting in a dentist's chair for numerous hours to achieve this look.
I have tried a few different types/ brands of teeth whitening products in the past & had no luck with them. So when these dropped through my letterbox I was really excited to give them a try.
These are Doll White 7 day teeth whitening treatment strips.
The idea of these is that they work as a seven day treatment plan, where you use one once a day for seven days. They do also offer treatment packs for 14, 28, 42 & 56 days. You pick your pack depending on how discoloured you feel your teeth are.
I personally prefer the idea of the shorter packs & using them prior to any big events I have coming up. Just for that extra burst of whiteness!
Below is a before & after photo.
After using the kit I have to say it does work! After seven days there is definitely a noticeable difference, which I think is great. I personally noticed a bigger difference to my top teeth than my lower teeth, however I think this is due to the difference in the shape of the strips.
The only thing I would say is that next time I would probably go with the 14 days treatment pack, based on my start shade & desired result.
Blackheads, I hate them, you hate them, we all hate them.
They are also a right pain to get rid of too!
So I wanted to talk a bit about some of my favourite products to get rid of blackheads & reduce visible pores.
The first product I like to use & the very first step in my everyday skincare routine is the Neutrogena Blackhead Eliminating daily scrub. I have been using this product for years & whenever I try to use other scrubs I hate them and just go straight back to this. This suits my skin perfectly.
It's a scrub that's not too harsh but still cleans your face deep down.
This product has micro beads in it to help remove blackheads and remove grease from blocking any pores. This is why I also find it prevents me from getting many spots.
The second product is the Biore Deep Cleasning Pore Strips, when these works (they're a bit hit & miss) they're great. You apply the strips to problem areas with blackheads, leave them for approximately 10 minutes then rip them off quickly. This results in them pulling blackheads clean off your face and the proof is on the strip!
Both of these products are available at the drugstore too!
The last product is the GlamGlow Clearing Treatment mask. I like to use this just on my blackhead areas & spots, as it is an expensive mask. I find this is great for reducing pores and removing blackheads. After I've used this mask my skin just looks brighter, clearer & cleaner!

Let me know your favourite blackhead products in the comments!
These are a very talked about product in the beauty world for removing blackheads.
You can buy them as just nose strips or, as picture above, nose & face strips.
Personally I have very mixed feelings on this product. I feel like sometimes they work & sometimes they don't (sound weird I know)!
I think you have to have seriously BAD blackheads for this to work, but equally ones that aren't too embedded into the skin. The more embedded they are the hard it will be for the strip to stick to them.
They work in a very simple way though. You simply wet your skin and stick them on. Leave them for roughly 10 minute & pull them off! You can see if they've worked as you'll see the blackheads stuck to the strip.
The other thing that kind of bothers me about these is that they're aren't that cheap for what they are. They start from £7.99 for just the nose strips, this works out to be £1.33 a strip.
I find that a bit crap when they don't always work!
Anyway if you really struggle with blackheads I would advise giving them a go, but try & catch them on sale.
