Colgate Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Whitening Pen Review

I got this when it first came out as it sounded amazing not only on TV but a lot of people on facebook were making posts about it being so amazing. Whiter teeth in 2 days? who wouldn't want to believe that. I was defiantly sucked in by the hype. I brought mine from new world for around $20 at the time i think it was on special, so i hurried home that night brushed my teeth with my pretty new tooth brush then began applying the teeth whitening gel, it says to do 2 clicks for the top teeth and 2 clicks for the bottom which i found was just enough, it says to avoid gums and swallowing. Well i found it hard to avoid the gums as i don't have straight teeth. It didn't hurt or anything when it touched my gums but did feel quite furry on my teeth. I found when i closed my mouth that a lot of the product came off so the next night i tried to not close my mouth and do it that way but i just ended up getting spit every where not ideal. On the second and third day i didn't see any results and i don't have white teeth id say mine are more on the normal side, i probably got at least one and half to two months with the whitening pen and never saw any results that i could really notice. I loved the packaging and how the pen went in the bottom of the tooth brush it was really handy but other than that i probably wouldn't buy it again but would recommend it to a friend as there teeth could be different to mine! i was so disappointed and wish i had seen the results i was hoping for, maybe i needed to try the optic white tooth paste as well?

I love this product! My enamel was terrible, my teeth, no matter what I used, would barely improve. The whitening pen thats conveniently included in the handle is fantastic. Within two days, not only myself noticed, but close family members commented on how great my teeth looked.

The toothbrush itself is great, and gives a really great all round clean.

I will definitely be buying this toothbrush again and again. I believe its well worth the price.

I was really interested in trying this because I am a coffee drinker and my teeth do get stained so I thought I would give this a go even though I did find it a bit pricey.

I actually liked the toothbrush, it had rubber bristles in the middle and it gave my teeth a cleaner feeling. I used the gel twice a day for a full week and I didn't really notice a difference in 2 days so I continued until the end of the week. It definitely did make my teeth a bit whiter but nothing drastic. I also found that it whitened my teeth quite unevenly.My canines were not as white as my front teeth and so it looked really weird.

I absolutely hated the application of the gel, its very thick so it doesn't go on evenly and and if I close my mouth straight after the application I find that most of the product gets wiped off and get onto my gums and lips and its a really unpleasant feeling. It also tastes really bad.

Overall I would not spend my money on it again because it's not worth it and the actual optic toothpaste is way better.

This tooth whitener is a great product its in most super markets an in the warehouse . its affordable an it come tooth brush how handy is that . the taste is kinda gross but i notice it does whiten my teeth an when i used it every day for a week i noticed a huge difference. i really love this tooth whitener an will continue to use an repurchase until better comes along , but so far this is the best ive ever tried :)

I had really high hopes for this and it did not deliver. I had heard of whitening pens before and thought that this would be similar but it did not help whiten my teeth at all! The whitening pen was very hard to apply and you really didn't get much product, it didn't last me very long before it ran out. The formula was sticky making it hard to spread out and it was just not worth the money overall. I prefer there optic white toothpaste to this whitening pen.

I brought this just before christmas.

The brush is so hard it hurt my tender gums, I did not notice if the toothbrush bristle design whitened my teeth any more.

I'm a coffee drinker atleast 4 cups in the morning.

Now the whitening pen...seriously what is the point! I almost used the entire product and you get bugger all! I noticed NO difference.

It tastes like toothpaste it's sticky like toothpaste, I think colgate's optic white toothpaste is alot better.

If you get it on your lips it's a sticky mess.

I do not recommend.

And really for the price! I paid $18 at Pak n Save it's not worth it.

If you want something to whiten up your teeth without having to pay for an expensive whitening kit I would highly highly recommend this. I've always had slightly yellow teeth but when I use the whitening pen they whiten so much. Obviously it's not as good as a whitening treatment and I personally don't use it twice a day every single day but really it works so well. I think it's totally worth the price (I think I got it for $25) and the pen lasts a surprisingly long time. I know you're meant to replace your toothbrush regularly so if you're someone who does do that it's so easy to just keep the pen and use a cheaper toothbrush until it runs out. It doesn't dry out the product inside the pen or anything like that to leave it out of the toothbrush. Oh I should explain, the whitening pen fits into the bottom of the toothbrush so it's like a handle, then you just pull it out and apply it to your teeth as you need it. 2 clicks for your top front teeth, 2 clicks for your bottom row of teeth. Because of the way the pen is designed it's practically impossible to overuse the product. Once you've had it for a long time it can get kinda difficult to slot the pen into the brush but this doesn't bother me at all, personally. Just make sure you don't accidentally end up throwing the pen halfway across the room when it slides out like I do!
