Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips - Results + Giveaway

It is the spontaneous experiences and special moments that make life more exciting, but nothing spoils the excitement of a last-minute invitation than a less than dazzling smile. A smile that stands out and helps make a good impression is important in every social occasion, so if you’re feeling your pearly whites just aren’t up to par, now there is a solution that requires almost no planning in a convenient application for whitening without the wait!  
Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips are the latest, ground-breaking additions to the Crest 3D White collection that promise to deliver instant quick results, making every moment a smile moment. 

Last week I posted about Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips and I showed you a "before" shot of my teeth, and now it's time to show you my results!

What makes Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips different from other whitening strips? They contain an innovative thicker ingredient layer, which provides significantly more enamel safe whitening ingredient that whitens for two hours. The advancements in the Whitestrip structure make it the best fitting Whitestrip ever, including optimized notches for a brighter, whiter smile—faster!

  • Tooth stains are removed below the tooth’s surface, for a brighter, whiter smile—faster 
  • The Whitestrips contain a thicker ingredient layer, providing significantly more enamel safe whitening ingredient which whitens in just two hours 
  • The Advanced Seal Technology, which includes optimized notches that wrap and conform to teeth for improved wear and comfort, make it the best fitting Whitestrip ever 
  • Removal of the Whitestrip is easy and clean, with no messy residue

In one box, you get four treatments that will last one year if you use one every three months. Each doses are individually wrapped in foil paper.


I thought the strips were pretty easy to apply to the teeth and I was surprised at how well they stick to the teeth! I was worried they would maybe move or slip because of the saliva but no, they absolutely didn't budge!

The strips applied on my teeth

I won't lie and say the strips are amazingly comfortable to wear during two whole hours - I could talk but it was annoying to always have something stuck on my teeth. I wonder if it's a little like wearing braces? I can't compare the level of comfort with other whitening strips as I have never used some before.

But does it really work? Here are my "before" and "after" shots:

Before

After

I'm sure you know how hard it is to take two pictures in the exact same lightning. I swear I was in the same room and under the same lightning but oh well! Even in real life, I can't say I really noticed an amazing difference. Honestly, I has super high hopes with this product and I must say I'm a little disappointed. Yes I did notice a slight difference, but I was really expecting super white teeth! My teeth are still yellow even though some stains were removed. Of course, the results will vary from one person to another!

On top of that, I never suffered of any teeth sensivity before but boy, these strips hurt like hell! I was warned by Taygan and Alex, but I thought I would be OK anyway... The two hours went well, then I removed the strips around 4:00 PM but around 7:00 PM, my teeth started aching so bad! I couldn't drink anything and I woke up two times that night because of the pain. By the morning, it was almost gone but still, ouch! I have already gave away the remaining strips because there's no way I will use them again!

Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips are available for $54.99 at mass retailers and drugstores nationwide. For more information and to grab a coupon, visit www.3DWhite.com and "like" them on Facebook.
