Colgate Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Whitening Pen Review

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 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 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 had relatively high expectations for this product as I had heard a lot about it and it seemed to get good reviews.

I bought the Colgate optic white toothpaste at the same time (which I liked better) and used both products as suggested. I brushed my teeth first then used the whitening pen. I think that the packaging was clever with the whitening pen fitting into the bottom of the toothbrush.

The first issue that I had was that there was no instructions on how long to leave it on your teeth for! I found this to be a huge issue for several reasons: 1) It said to avoid contact with gums etc, however if I closed my mouth it would touch my cheeks and it was hard to avoid my gums when applying. To keep my mouth open wide to avoid contact was hard and painful. 2) It also said not to swallow and I found this hard to avoid if I were to leave it on over night. 3) It did not feel nice on my teeth at all. 4) I did not want to risk leaving it on for too ling and getting sensitive teeth.

I did notice that my teeth went the tiniest amount whiter, however not enough that it waqs really noticeable. And definitely not enough to be worth the price.

I have not repurchased this product and I do not intend to. Overall it was hugely disappointing.

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 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.

Noticed a slight improvement only after a friend pointed it out lol. Did work but nowhere near the extent promised :( with longer term use I imagine it would make a difference, or at the least prevent future staining, will keep the pen for touch ups but the toothbrush itself is bulky and annoying.

I brought the Colgate Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Whitening Pen because I wanted whiter teeth (funnily enough) and some of my friends had tried this and found it worked for them. That said they found it only worked when they applied it, not all day everyday. So I brought one too.

I was really excited to try the whitening pen, a pen sounded like a really assessible and effective way of whitening teeth. The first thing that went wrong was the instructions. There were lots of warnings about ingesting the product and then they didn't even tell you if you were supposed to leave the product on on what. So I left it on. It was really crunchy and tasted like being at the denists. In fact it reminded me of their polishing paste quite a lot.

And then after all that effort the effects were minimal and required a lot of maintaince.

The accompanying toothbrush I thought was just like a standard tooth brush except that you can slot the whitening pen into it. That was innovative and space efficent.

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!
