K, but do teeth whitening lights work?
In the age of Instagram, a girl needs to look her best… and like most things this decade, teeth whitening just got a whole lot easier (but is it just a money making scam?)

Gone are the days of getting your pearly whites in tip top shape at a dentist and having to donate a kidney to pay for the procedure. Now, just like Kylie Jenner, you too can whiten your teeth at home (while you watch Netflix or stalk your ex’s new girlfriend on social media).
To be honest, we were a little bit skeptical about One Smile Teeth Whitening, because hasn’t Clicks been selling kits like these for years? But like the thorough journalists we are, we gave our kit a bash and were amazed!
Our guinea pig? The editor’s boyfriend who runs on cigarettes and iced coffee. If One Smile could work on his teeth, everyone else might as well head out now and buy theirs.
The kit which comes with a light-up mouth piece and 3 gel syringes promises to accelerate and enhance teeth whitening effects. According to them, in just 10 minutes, stains will begin to breakdown with visible whitening results.
Every night our guinea pig was summoned to partake in this new ritual and we would anxiously await the results. The kit states that with only six applications, your teeth can achieve up to 8 shades of whitening improvement on both the inner and outer of your smile. The kit which was made famous by the world’s biggest celebs abides by ADA and FDA regulations. The ingredients maintain an above neutral pH to ensure that no abrasiveness is experienced on the tooth enamel. The short 10 minute applications and friendly-to-use whitening agents also make One Smile suitable for those with sensitive teeth.
The result? We couldn’t believe how the machine we believed to be bullshit, actually whitened the teeth even after about the second session. Let’s just say our guinea pig has already ordered his gel refills!
Overall verdict? One Smile for president 2018.
