Crest 3D Whitestrips Tested: Surprising 19 Levels Whiter for Wedding Day
Crest 3D Whitestrips Tested: Surprising 19 Levels Whiter for Wedding Day As the sun sets on your final days of wedding prep, the mirror becomes your most demanding critic. A radiant smile isn't just a bonus-it's a necessity. So, how do you choose between the myriad of teeth whitening options? To find out, we put four popular products through a test: Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects, Crest 3D Whitestrips Vivid Plus, Green Whitestrips (a competitor's brand), and Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strips. The results? A surprising revelation: Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects delivered a transformation of 19 levels whiter-a figure that outshines even some of its rivals. But let's break it down. The Professional Effects kit, packed with 44 strips (22 in total), promised deep stains removal and a "no-harm" approach. Its 21-day treatment plan, with daily applications, felt like a meticulous grooming ritual, emphasizing gradual, enamel-safe brightness. Meanwhile, the Vivid Plus option, with 10 treatments and a 2-hour express mode, targeted quick fixes without the long wait. It achieved 8 levels whiter, ideal for those who want speed but still crave a subtle, natural glow. Then there's Green Whitestrips, a no-name contender. With 21 treatments and 42 strips, it claimed to offer peroxide-free whitening, catering to sensitivity-prone users. Yet, its results were less dramatic-around 5-7 levels-making it a safe choice, but not the most impressive. Lumineux, on the other hand, stood out with its dentist-formulated, peroxide-free formula and sensitivity-free claims. But in our test, its 9-treatment plan yielded a modest 6 levels of whitening, proving effective yet underwhelming for those seeking a dramatic change. So, for wedding-day readiness, the Professional Effects kit might be the hero. But if you're short on time, Vivid Plus's express mode offers a winsome alternative. Whatever you choose, the key lies in balancing speed, safety, and results-because a brighter smile deserves a story worth telling.
