Colgate Optic White Review

Hi all! Long time since I've written. If you follow me on Instagram then you know I had given up blogging for a while. I was struggling with some things and my focus was not where it was supposed to be, but things have changed in the past couple weeks and I am back! I have a couple posts planned for the next few weeks, and I hope you will like them! Also, if you have any requests please let me know!

Any who, about two weeks ago I received a package containing the Optic White toothbrush and toothpaste from Colgate. I had heard about this a couple times, and had seen it at my local shops, but completely ignored it. I wish I hadn't. Since I have used this, I have noticed my teeth whitening. 

I find this system to be easy to use, and well worth the money. Brush, whiten and go; it is that simple. 
I do have to say that the first time I used the brush I hated it! The package said the bristles were soft, but they were far from it. The bristles were very stiff and rough on my teeth. I almost didn't want to finish brushing the first time. Luckily, the bristles soften up by the third or fourth use. There is nothing, in my opinion, extraordinary with the toothbrush. To me, it is just like any other toothbrush out there. The only thing that sets it apart in that it stores the whitening pen.

The whitening paste that comes with this is to be used after brush, and left on your teeth. I was a bit hesitant to use it because from past experiences the whitening pastes leave a nasty taste in my mouth and make my teeth sensitive, but it was not the case with this one. The paste goes on smoothly, and it is easy to spread with the gripped tip of the pen. Also, the paste does not leave a nasty taste in your mouth; I found it to be a bit sweet. Another thing that was important to me was the feel the paste would leave and I was surprised that it couldn't even tell I had it on. The only time I knew was the first time and the first few minutes, after that I could not tell it was on. The paste did not make food make taste gross either.

I highly recommend this system to anyone who wants to whiten their teeth. It is inexpensive, compared to other whitening systems, and easy to use. It takes no more than 5 minutes of your day! 
I would show pictures of the whitening process, but my teeth are not perfect and it is something I am conscious about, sorry! But I can guarantee that you will see a difference, and that you will love it.
