HEALTH: ALTERNATIVE WAY TO BRIGHTEN YOUR TEETH

Alternative Way to Brighten your Teeth: ACTIVATED CHARCOAL

I was lucky to try this new product for whitening and brightening teeth. Based in ancient conceptions and basic knowledge there are an array of natural products used for different purposes regarding our health. 
In modern times we turn to brand products filled with chemicals that may be potential risky to our health and deteriorate the enamel in our teeth. We think it is convenient, but if you have tried the trays that need to be heated, molded and then apply the bleaching agent, you'll know that is not an easy task.
Setting this as base, I prefer a more natural approach that may look too simple to be true. In this case I tried the Activated Coconut Charcoal Powder, it is a black powder (of-course) that you apply a small amount to a soft tooth brush and gently massage the teeth for about two minutes. This  polishes the teeth giving a shinny pearl like look (in my case). 
I have used it for a few days an can see a difference. The first time I used a larger amount and I got mouth, hands and the sink all black (LOL), now I know the exact amount needed and it washes off easy. 
I think this is a great solution to a better smile.

Note: this product is not harmful in any way, but always ask a healthcare provider if this is right for you.

Here is a piece found in WebMD about Activated Charcoal.

Common charcoal is made from peat, coal, wood, coconut shell, or petroleum. “Activated charcoal” is similar to common charcoal, but is made especially for use as a medicine. To make activated charcoal, manufacturers heat common charcoal in the presence of a gas that causes the charcoal to develop lots of internal spaces or “pores.” These pores help activated charcoal “trap” chemicals.


Activated charcoal is used to treat poisonings, reduce intestinal gas (flatulence), lower cholesterol levels, prevent hangover, and treat bile flow problems (cholestasis) during pregnancy.

How does it work?

Activated charcoal is good at trapping chemicals and prevents their absorption.

http://us.rimmellondon.com/products/eyes/scandaleyes-rockin-curves AWESOME CURVES! Just received this product free to test and review, and it's amazing how it works.

Love the look it gives by extending the lashes.

WELLNESS: Better sleep column alignment pillow.

Memory Foam Pillow with Cooling Gel  Had the best comfort sleep the first time I used this contour soft pillow. It is very soft, and the cover has this cooling soothing sensation. Looks very well made and with great materials.  Love how soft the cover is and that it can be removed for washing separately.  The only problem that you will have is that everyone in your house will want one. It is designed for multiple uses, as the sides have different width and inclination.  If you sleep sideways, then you can get your column aligned by using the wider side on your neck, the hollow part supports your head and you can feel your body relaxing as you slumber to sleep.  If you sleep facing up, then the best way is to use the lower elevation side on your neck and the curve will support your head without obstructing your air flow as it is the norm with pillows with too much filling.  There are so many other uses that will benefit your he...
