Enhancing your best accessory

Happy Wednesday friends! 
A girl's best accessory is her smile, am I right? A smile is one of the first things someone notices on you and can easily make someone's day a little bit brighter. Today I'm going to share with you all how I enhance my best accessory with Smile Brilliant! 
If you follow me for a while or on my various social media accounts then you know that I've developed a strong love for coffee this past year. With school work piling up, balancing blogging and social life as well as everything else throws at you it can be tricky to find enough energy to get through everything in one day! As much as I love a good cup of coffee (or two) it has definitely had an effect on my teeth.
Teeth whitening can be a hassle, but thankfully this at-home kit makes it super easy for you to whiten your pearly whites in a breeze!

Teeth Whitening Kit c/o (Use code: pastelnpink for 5% off!) The teeth whitening kit comes stocked with material for you to create your own custom molds to make your teeth impressions with. To make the molds all you need to do is mix the white catalyst paste with the blue base into they are one. Then you would fit them into the mold and place them in your mouth for them to set. The whole process of making the mold should take about 10 minutes and then you can let them sit for about 30 minutes to fully harden.
After you've created the molds you'll ship them off to Smile Brilliant so they can create your custom trays! The kit includes an extra catalyst and base just in case you mess up and have to do another re-do... which thankfully they did because I completely messed up my first impressions the first go around! #nobodysperfect

Smile Brilliant will send you a notification via email when they received your impressions and let you know when your trays will be sent out. Your trays will come in the mail in this cute little container and from there you can start the whitening process!

For the whitening process, you'll need one syringe of the teeth whitening gel and one syringe of the desensitizing gel. I typically whiten my teeth right before bed because you'll need the desensitizing gel to set on your teeth for 30 minutes and not eat or drink anything in the meantime.

To start off the process I brush my teeth with water and give it a quick floss. Afterward, I wipe my teeth to dry them off just so they trays can stick to them better. I apply a little strip of the teeth whitening gel on the trays and pop them in. I have pretty sensitive teeth so I could only put the trays on for about 10 - 15 minutes the first go around, but as I continued to use the product I was able to put them in longer building my way up to 30 - 45 minutes. 

On the directions, it says you can put them into up to 3 hours if you like. Of course, results will be better the longer you put them in, but be sure to make sure you built your way up there if you have sensitive teeth like me.

After I use the teeth whitening gel I'll go through my normal teeth brushing routine and put a thin strip of the desensitizing gel on the trays and pop them in. This helps with not making your teeth super sensitive and sealing everything in. Afterward I take the trays out, rinse the tray and head to bed. And that's it! Super easy and total it takes me on average maybe 30 - 40 minutes to whiten my teeth.

Here are the results!
