| meleahk's Full Review: Colgate Simply White Night Clear Whitening Gel |
Update: We still enjoy "Colgate Simply White". Of the others we have tried it works the best for us.
Orignal Review Below
Life is not a box of chocolates! At least not in our mouths! And now days everyone wants white teeth because they think they can. Well now they can! There are several products on the market today that will help us all in getting whiter, brighter smiles.
Recently we bought one of those products that’ll help us to join the world in smiling better. This product is new on the market but the company has been around for a long time.
The Product
Colgate® Simply White™. A clear whitening gel that is easy to use and will help to make your teeth sparkle white clean! It’s the easy way to sparkling white teeth in just 14 days.
Contains enough product for the 14 days of use.
Instructions
Use this product twice a day for 14 days.
Step 1: You should brush your teeth as you normally would. Then you dry the surface of your teeth and try not to let your lips or tongue touch dried teeth to avoid rewetting. Unscrew the cap from Colgate® Simply White™ to remove the applicator brush from the bottle.
Step 2: Then you apply a thin layer of Colgate® Simply White™ one tooth at a time to your upper teeth and lower teeth using an up and down motion. Re-dip the brush as needed. Now this brush looks like one that you would use for painting fingernails.
Step 3: Now you try not to let your lips or tongue touch your teeth for at least 30 seconds. You should not eat or drink for 30 minutes for the best results. And of course make sure that you close the cap so that the product does not dry out. And you should store in a cool place, away from heat.
Warnings & Precautions
From the container: “Keep out of the reach of children. Do not swallow more than used for whitening. Avoid contact with eyes. If tooth sensitivity or gum irritation occurs, stop using Colgate Simply White and consult a dentist. See package insert for full details.”
Guarantee
From the container: “Money Back Guarantee. If not satisfied with results, send proof of purchase from box and original cash register receipt to Colgate Palmolive.”

Other Information
Colgate® Simply White™ cost $13.28 at Wal Mart. Slightly higher at other stores such as drug stores and grocery stores. I have seen it advertised for $14.99.
Also, you should read the instructions very carefully. There is a small pamphlet that comes with the product.
The ingredients are: Alcohol, Water, Urea Peroxide (Carbamide Peroxide), PEG 2M, Glycerin, Carbopol, Sodium Phosphate and Phosphoric Acid.
How I Feel
Well this product has worked fairly well I would say. Our teeth are brighter and whiter and the smile is better.
It does take a little getting use to at first because you have to dry your teeth after brushing and wait for 30 seconds. And you have to try and not let your lips touch your teeth after applying and then not eat or drink anything for at least 30 minutes. But with practice each day it only took just a couple of days to get into the swing of things.
Of course with several of us using the stuff it can get costly. But I suppose in the end it is worth it. Especially for my teenage daughter who thrives on her smiles. LOL! At least she thinks so.
Give it a try you may like it as we do.
I hope that this has helped in some kind of way.
God Bless!
