REVIEW : Whitening Lightning Dial A Smile Professional Teeth Whitening Kit

Price - $69 (after discount using promo code)
Packaging - Comes in 3 sets. (For 3 times use)

Well, we got across this product after reading a few reviews especially in the US and decided to try it out. We even checked out some of the youtube videos on it. We are not sure how effective this really was to them but here's our experience on it. Also you might want to check out some of the US beauty bloggers especially because they have discount codes that enables you to get this at just half the price at checkout. Also on this particular website that we bought this product, they shipped internationally and the parcel arrived in about 2 weeks tops.


Firstly, we were really amazed by the results of so many reviewers. But honestly, we were left disappointed. We are not sure a the lighting was a problem or our eyesight but we failed to notice much of a difference. Our colour probably went up a 0.5 on the dial. We tried this a few times but still failed to get the amazing results as claimed by the other bloggers. Anyways if you guys decide to try this out, feel free to leave comments. And also, below is a photo of the items you will need, that is already in the box.


You got vitamin E swabs that release when you break it off at the marked end, which we find really cool. Wipes for your teeth to dry them. Syringe, small brush, a dial, and the LED light (which we find it quite cool as well). When you try this out our problem all the times that we tried it was we just can contain our saliva, in other words we cannot stop drooling. Which leads to the question "Won't the saliva coat or wash away the gel and affect the results?" We are still not sure about that but have in hand something to do to take your mind of that, we had television shows and movies in hand while doing this. We know it is just 20 minutes, but it can get pretty nerve-racking with whatever that your mouth needs to hold.

Direction - Start with the teeth wipe, wipe down your teeth and gums with the blue side of the wipe. Proceed to break off the marked end of the Vitamin E cotton swab. Coat your teeth and gums with the cotton swab. Eject the gel onto the small container. Dip brush and coat teeth with the gel. Turn on LED light and place in mouth for 20 minutes.

Verdict - Probably did not work at all. And it is pretty expensive.

REVIEW : Pearl Drops Everyday Extra Whitening Smokers Toothpaste

Price - N/A
Where to buy - Guardian, Watsons, Cold Storage, Aeon Jusco, Pharmacies
Size - 100g tube


As you can see above we have tried this one out and we only got ourselves a tube and stopped there. Pardon the photo because we forgot to take a picture before we tried it but this shows our reviews are based on real experiences right? So, about this toothpaste, it just seems like any other toothpaste but why we purchased it was cause probably Pearl Drops specialise in teeth whitening so we thought we should give this a try.


None of us here have extremely stained yellow teeth but I guess when we read the words "Smokers Toothpaste" on the packaging, we were bought there and then. Because this would mean on just a little stained teeth it would probably work even better at whitening it no? But it did not really worked to our favour. It smells just normal and is white in colour. Also when we read that it helps to whiten teeth without the use of harsh abrasives, bleaches or acidic pH, we were even happier.

It is not the gel type of toothpaste that some people dislike or like. Sorry again we did not take any photos of that beforehand as well. Also somehow after using this toothpaste, although it feels fresh, it somehow feels some freshness is still missing, like it is not 100% clean. but this is just personal opinion. You may try it for yourselves.

What we also realised was compared to other brands of toothpaste such as Darlie or Colgate, this one sticks easily especially on the sides of the basin. We are not sure what that means but for us it is a bigger mess and it gets too sticky or surfaces. Probably this means it sticks better to your teeth or so? Anyhow we are not going to really recommend this product if you are a smoker or have yellow teeth. Because by the time the tube was done in about a month or so, our teeth seemed to be still in the same shade of off-white yellow.

Verdict - Will not repurchase. Did not work, did not whiten teeth.

Rating - 0.5/5 (for doing its job of cleaning daily)
