Influenster Optic White VoxBox

A few weeks ago I signed up for an online program called Influenster.  It’s basically a website where you test and review new products.   I wasn’t really sure what I was getting myself into but decided to sign up just to see what it’s like.  Plus, I really like getting free stuff!  I took several quizzes and based on my lifestyle and preferences I will receive certain “boxes”. 

I was selected to receive this “Colgate Optic White VoxBox”.  I guess somewhere between my admitted obsession with makeup and reality tv they thought “Wow, this girl would get a kick out of this toothbrush with a whitening pen in it!”

Despite my lack of excitement over dental hygiene products, I was still really excited to get this!  I mean, who doesn’t love getting packages?!  Anyway, it came in a pretty decent sized Optic White box with a travel size sample of the Optic White toothpaste and their new Optic White toothbrush. 

I haven’t actually used the toothpaste yet because since it’s the perfect travel size, I’m saving it for when I go to Bermuda in September!  BUT I have been using the toothbrush/whitening gel.  The whitening gel came in a tube that snaps into the handle of the brush.  Handy?  Yes.  Effective?  Yet to be determined.  I do think that it whitened my teeth.  However I’ve come to the realization that at the end of the day when I’m getting ready for bed, spending two minutes putting whitening gel on my teeth is just not a top priority.  I find myself skipping it pretty much every night.  Plus, since the whitening tube is in the handle, the handle is super thick so it won’t fit in my toothbrush holder!  I know what you’re thinking: first world problems, but I just think the people at Colgate should know the struggle.  The struggle is real.

So if the idea of putting a whitening gel on your teeth every night seems like something you could handle, I’d say go for it.  The whitener itself seems to work pretty effectively.  As for me, I guess I need to get myself together!

Anyway , Thanks for reading!!
