Okay, so recently INSTAwhite sent me a package filled with goodies to test out and review so today we're going to be talking about the Essential Teeth Whitening Kit. I've already tried out their LED Teeth Whitening Kit which I loved (read the full post here) so I was excited to try out the Essentials Kit which can be used alongside your LED Kit to give an added boost to your whitening results which is something I've noticed you can't get with other teeth whitening brands such as HiSmile or Kissteeth which do offer similar LED kits but don't come with this great little add-on.
The kit contains 2 charcoal powder pots, an eco-friendly bamboo toothbrush and 7 coconut mouthwash sachets. It costs £24.99 and contains 100% natural ingredients to gently remove stains and whiten teeth.
Okay, so the only complaint I have with this particular kit is that it doesn't come with instructions and I couldn't see any on the website, it is fairly self explanatory but there are a few things I wasn't sure about so I did some research online, you can, of course, use the products whichever way works best for yourself but I'm going to share how I've been using the kit.
I suggest using your coconut mouthwash sachets first thing in the morning or at night, I like to use them first thing in the morning, swish the oil in the mouth for 5-20mins then spit out the contents into the toilet or trash, avoid the sink as you can cause blockages. Finish off by gently brushing your teeth to remove any oily residue. Initially, this is a bit of a weird experience, the feeling of oil in your mouth isn't all that pleasant but you do get used to it, you should also note that coconut oil is solid at room temperature so you may want to warm up the sachet in your hands or run it under some warm water before opening it up so you can easily get all of the product out of the sachet. Now, I've obviously been using this kit along with the whitening gels so I can't comment on the whitening results of the coconut mouthwash alone but I do think it gives an added boost when used alongside the other products and helps to increase the whitening effects and remove surface stains.
The charcoal pots are very simple to use but definitely messy you just wet your bamboo toothbrush and gently dip it into your pot of charcoal, gently tap off any excess and brush your teeth as normal for 3mins then rinse, I also like to gently brush my teeth afterwards with my usual toothpaste to remove any traces of charcoal. As I've already mentioned I've been using my teeth whitening gels along with this kit so I can't speak about the results of the charcoal powder alone but I do feel like my teeth look more pearly and shiny once I've used the powder and I do think it helps to remove stains and gives you that quick instant boost. This is the perfect product to have in your bathroom cabinet for those days you need a quick fix and whiter looking smile in an instant.
Okay, so I've really enjoyed testing out this kit and I think it would be perfect to use after you finish using the LED Teeth Whitening Kit to prolong your whitening results or you may want to use this kit by itself if you already have white teeth and just want to give them that extra boost and remove any surface stains, either way, I think it definitely worth trying out.
