    Does anyone use these?

    Have a friend going to New York soon and was wondering which ones might be the best to buy, there seems to be so many types??

    Are they available in all chemists in NY?

    Anyone buy them online and from where?

    Thanks :):)

    I've used them before, didn't find them any good to be honest and my teeth wouldn't be that bad. I now use Oral B whitening toothpaste, I think it's called Glamour Shine and my teeth look a good bit whiter than usual.

    I have them. They're annoying to use because they slip and slide around a lot. They can leave your lips feeling a bit sore. They might brighten teeth a little bit but it can be patchy and uneven because of the strips sliding around.

    I use charcoal toothpaste for whitening.

    The old ones used to slide around but the ones I switched to certainly latch on properly. I can recommend them all right

    Crest 3D WHITE Whitestrips Professional Effects

    I bought mine about a year and a half ago, online.
    I can't remember the site name but it's mentioned on Beaut.ie I think

    I found they made my teeth extremely sensitive. Tried them again recently, followed the instructions perfectly, and my teeth were still very sensitive! Oh well. Baking soda and lemon makes my teeth whiter anyway I find!

    i get them on ebay and find them brill. if you have sensitive teeth use the ones for that (if you google them you can view the different types). I cant use the strong ones as it makes my teeth sore but the five minute ones are perfect for sensitive teeth

    Sorry for posting on a really old thread, but I thought maybe it would be better to ask here instead of starting a whole new thread just for one question.

    With the Crest3D LUXE Whitestrips Professional Effects, you get a 10 pouches, which is 20 strips. Do you use those trips for half an hour every day until the pack runs out? Like, 20 consecutive days?

    The states/Canada is like dental porn over there. I love it. I always stock up. I know that oral B and crest are the same products but I much prefer crest and they have a much better selection. I love the crest luxe whitening toothpaste, the crest teeth exfoliation and the luxe professional whitening strips. I feel somewhere better stocking up on jolly ranchers and lucky charms when I know I have lots of products to combat the effects on my teeth!

    I used those last year and I think you can use them on consecutive days, except they made my teeth so sensitive that I had to take breaks. You could google reviews of the strips to see what works for other people.

    I used to use them but not worth it anymore.

    What seller did you buy them from? Just had a look on ebay and most appear to be fakes from China :(

    I bought mine on eBay from an Irish seller tanteethtone (If mods snip that then PM me!)

    I'm surprised there's such negative reviews here, I haven't done mine in about 2 years and I constantly have people asking why my teeth are so white. I got some more and I'm going to start again soon, I would Recommend a week of Sensodyne before you start and during!

    Oh sorry they must have closed down! I've never really had an issue with fakes anyway, especially if you buy from an Irish/English seller.
