I drink a lot of coffee. I mean, A LOT of coffee. I could list off many reasons why I like it but I think it might be easier to say why I don’t… I get “coffee smile”! Even though always go get my teeth cleaned at the dentist every 6 months, I like to keep my smile white in between visits – that’s why I use GO SMiLE Touch-Up Perfecting Ampoules. In fact, check out my before/after picture below! The results shown are from using only the Touch Up Ampoules approximately twice a week for 6 months NOT the complete GO SMiLE whitening system.
I think I’ve officially tried every teeth whitener out there. Let’s see… I’ve used whitening toothpastes, whitening rinses, whitening strips, teeth whitening stuff you “paint” on… and none of it has worked for me. Not to mention, all those whiteners made my teeth hurt after the first application. The last place I would have guessed I’d find teeth whitener was at a makeup store! About 6 months ago I was actually shopping for some face moisturizer at Sephora and just so happened to walk by the GO SMiLE display. I saw someone trying out a sample and they seemed really happy with the results (I guess at this point I was willing to try anything!)
GO SMiLE is different than other whitening products. There aren’t any trays or strips - just a cute little ampoule filled with GO SMiLE’s teeth whitener. I love their slogan: Flip, Pop, Whiten! That’s all you do!
Here are the highlights:

I really like this product because it is easy to use and convenient. It’s also like a mini toothbrush! After you use the product, it feels like you just brushed your teeth. So it’s great for taking on a date, using before meetings at the office, or just anywhere you’d like to have a toothbrush. The best part is that it doesn’t make my teeth hurt like some of the other whitening products out there. I’ve used this product for quite some time now and I haven’t noticed any increased sensitivity. There are three flavors you can choose from: Fresh Mint, Watermelon Mint, and Green Apple. I’ve tried all three and like the Watermelon Mint the best. The flavors aren’t strong so people won’t think you’ve seriously been downing Jolly Ranchers or Fruit Stripe Gum.
One other thing I do to repel stains on my teeth caused by coffee, tea, or dark colored wines is to drink some water after I get done drinking my beverage. Water is the universal solvent so it helps to rinse away those stain causing molecules. So, drink up! That’s just another reason why water is good for you.
Although I haven’t tried the GO SMiLE's total whitening system, these touch up ampoules still work pretty well. For me, this was the first whitening product I’ve used where I got IMMEDIATE results. After using one of the ampoules, my teeth look noticeably whiter. Just remember - everyone’s teeth are different so you might get slightly different results. Also, if you’re unsure about starting an at-home whitening system give your dentist a quick call to get some advice.
GO SMiLE has a great website. They compare their products against all the other types of products: strips, paint-ons, trays & gels, rinse & toothpastes, and in-office procedures. You’ll be amazed at the results! http://www.gosmile.com/how_it_works?2
Speaking of smiling, Charles Reade has a good point: "Beauty is power; a smile is its sword,” but I think Jean Kerr has a good point too: “I’m tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That’s deep enough. What do you want - an adorable pancreas?”
Stay Sunny,
