Brilliantly Simple Package: LED Whitening + Whitening Pen

All of you that read my blog or are friends on facebook knew that I just recently got my braces removed. It was actually 4 months ago and people that got braces knew how hard it is to brush your wired teeth. I'm also a coffee and tea drinker and occasional soda drinker. I love to eat curry and other foods that can make the teeth yellow/stained. Well, my teeth was pretty much stained. 

So after braces, I've been looking for good brand of teeth whitening. I even considered whitening strips which are expensive and also considered laser whitening treatment at the dentist. But before I shell out some serious cash, I decided to try this whitening kit first.

PRICE:

HOW TO USE:

**Excuse my no make up face. Was about to sleep when I did this review to prevent me from eating or drinking after I do this. haha! Anyway this is how I did this:

❖ Brush and floss teeth

❖ Apply the whitening gel all over your teeth. PS: You will need to click the pen several times for first time use in order for the gel to come out.

❖ After applying the gel, cover it with the tray

❖ Turn on the LED Light (make sure you remove the clear plastic which is located inside the battery)

❖ Place it in front of your teeth for 20-45 minutes.

I did mine for 40 minutes total. You can do this everyday until the desired whiteness is achieved.

THE RESULTS:

These are the BEFORE PHOTOS: As you can see my teeth are stained with coffee, tea or whatever foods I eat that can stain.

With flash:

THE AFTER PHOTOS: It does look a lot cleaner and look a little bit whiter with just one use :D I will continue to use it and will update you guys again but I'm definitely happy with the results.

YAY FOR HAPPY TEETH!!! :D

Playoffs 2012 Clippers vs Grizzlies

Personal Post :D Yay!!! Last May 07, we went to Staples Center to watch Clippers vs Grizzlies. Now, I'm not much of a basketball fan but the hubby is so being the sport that I am, I went ahead and bought a jersey of my own. Haha! I like Clippers more than Grizzlies. I love Blake Griffin <3 Haha!

They were giving away Extra Large T-shirts upon entrance. Nearly swallowed me! Hahaa!

We got great seats! Was so close I could hug Griffin. Lol joke! But it was pretty good seats :D

Friends also came with us. The more the merrier!

Didn't know watching a game can be so nerve racking! OMG I was so nervous! But was glad Clippers won in the end. Hooray! :D

Then we camwhored outside the Staples Center. By the way it was my first time. Haha! I enjoyed it too much! Definitely not my last time here :)

Pose Pose Pose.. hahaha! :D

I miss doing personal posts. Hope you guys don't mind :) My month of May is much better than my other months this year. I have been feeling under the weather since February. I'm just glad I was able to have fun this month. Hoping that the upcoming week is a lot more fun.

♥ Packages ♥

I didn't work 16 hours today. I actually was kind of expecting that they will make me stay but they didn't need me. I don't mind working double today because I'm only working 4 days this week. I have an OFF day on Saturday. We will be going to Adrian's family :) Cannot wait to have that day off!! It's been awhile for me to not work on a Saturday :D

I had a great day at work.. everyone is just so helpful! It amazes me how some people go beyond their means just to help fellow co workers. That's what I call team work! Anyway, I went home around 11pm and I saw some packages are waiting for me at home ready to be opened!! :D I was excited!

First package was from V L U X cosmetics! I was contacted by Vivian Duong from http://www.vluxcosmetics.com to review their palette. I was so excited to open it, such a sleek packaging! :D I squealed when I opened the palette to see pretty neutral shades. I will be reviewing them soon, and maybe create a look using the palette.

I am not getting paid by V L U X to post or review this product

I also received a package from my friend Angelique http://angxo.blogspot.com. She is very very sweet to send me the 2 WnW palettes that I couldn't find! Ahhh! I so wanna hug and kiss her for these goodies she sent me. Such a sweetie! and yay for Hello Kitty sweets!!

Gorgeous Palettes!! Thank you again Angelique!! You're such an angel! ♥

3rd package that I opened was from E.L.F. http://www.eyeslipsface.com I ordered from them on March 3, 2011 and it arrived today -- March 9, 2011. Fast Shipping! Yay!!! I ordered bunch of stuff that is worth $30 - including shipping!

I am not getting paid to post and review this. The products were paid by the company for review purposes only. I was not compensated in any way for posting these products.

Here are the products I ordered. LIP STUFF! I cannot wait to try and review them! and they gave me the eyeshadow palette as a gift :)

Look at all these make up in just one day. If you see my make up stash, so many unused make up, not getting any LOVE from me :( I worked so many hours and the only  make up I carry is my lip balm and lip stain -- sometimes a lipstick or lipgloss. I rarely use eyeshadow nowadays because I don't have time to do that before I go to work. Seriously, I love sleeping in. I'd rather get extra 15 minutes of sleep, than get up and pretty-fy myself. *sigh*

But, I admit, make up does make me happy! ♥ Seeing the stash of make up, used or unused makes me smile. .______. Anyway, it's almost day light saving time. Losing another hour of sleep. *sigh* Seriously, I want to do FOTD and do it on natural light but I'm always at work. Ahhh.. Hope you all are having a great week!

I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep.  That's deep enough.  What do you want - an adorable pancreas?  ~Jean Kerr

Current Haul: Wet & Wild Palettes

Been seeing this everywhere & I can't help but get curious about these palettes. But what I didn't know is these palettes are so coveted that they're SOLD OUT in most drug stores that I went to. I have gone to different stores and I only grabbed maybe 1 palette then go again on another store then found another 1 palette. Hahaha! It's like treasure hunting! >_< Adrian was so patient with me driving me around and helping me find the palettes. 

So far I only found 4 out of 6! Yes I'm still hunting 2 palettes!

Silent Treatment, I'm feeling Retro. I got good jeans, I dream of genie

Such gorgeous colors!! I love the fact that it has label on to which part of the eye (lid, crease, browbone) the eye color goes to. :) Makes me excited to use them :D I have not swatch them yet.

What do you think of these palettes?

Christmas Celebration & Presents ♥

Note: Picture Heavy

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a very Merry Christmas ❉ Are you all staying warm? It started raining this evening. It was so cold. Brrr.. Anyway, I just wanted to share with you guys our Christmas celebration and of course the presents ☃ ♥

The best Christmas present I got? Adrian able to walk again. He still uses the crutches but he can now put weight on his foot, that means he can cook again for me! Hahah! The best present ever! ♥

Half of our day, we spent it at Adrian's aunt's house. It was so much fun!

Yay for presents! Grey blouses ♥ I love it!

Then after that, we went to my parents' house. This picture was taken by my point & shoot camera, and I love it!! :) Reminds me of the picture of a front card. :D

We were watching Toy Story 3 because my siblings hasn't watched it yet :)

Adrian, my brother, and my sister :)

My sister wearing one of her gifts :)

Dad opening his gift!

My brother opening his gift! Converse shoes! :D

My mom with her gift. I put some goodies inside *wink*

My love opening his gift. I gave him Nike basketball shorts so when he's better, he can play basketball again! ♥

The parents gave us knife set for our apartment! Yay for sharp knives! LOL!

Opening my gift :)

Parents gave me this Hello Kitty wreath. So cute!!!

& then this Wine bottle stopper :) Now I need more wine! Hahaha!

A surprise from Adrian, a hot topic box came 2 nights before Christmas and I asked Adrian if he ordered anything from online and he said no, then I found out on Christmas day what it is! Hahaha! So sneaky! I didn't know he was able to order this, as it is sold out online! 

I'm happy & warm!! :P I love it beyb!! Thank you!!! ♥

Then another surprise from him! ♥ He was the one that woke me up when the Sephora x Hello Kitty came out for two days. He said, "look, the hello kitty is on sephora website  now!" I was excited of course but it was so expensive so I told him, I'd pass & would wait til January comes. He was like, "you sure? Get it if you want to" I said it's fine. But I have been talking to my blogger friends and twitter about the brush set (and mind you he reads my blog too!) so he probably got the idea that I WANT THE HELLO KITTY BRUSH SET! Hahaha :) I'm so thankful for having a kind and observant husband :P

Beheaded Hello Kitty! hahaha!

Such a cute set, but I don't wanna use it! Hahaha! :P It's actually soft & so much better than the MAC Travel brush set.

& He is very good because he got me the free TOKIDOKI bag too!! YAY!!! :D

He also got me HK blush in "Cherry Blossom"

 ...and HK lipstick in "Peachy"

I was drowning with HK goodness! ♥ I'm not really sure how he picked the colors. lol. :P I love you Adrian! Thanks for always making me smile :)

Then my co-worker also surprised me with these HK nail polish and sticker! I totally didn't expect her to send me this because when I woke up that day, the first thing I noticed was these nail polish were SOLD OUT! I was freaking out and told her how thankful I was that she got me this. ♥ Love you Celia! Thanks for being so sweet (my co workers know about my blog! lol!)

Adrian's aunt gave me this coach wrislet. So pretty!

She also got me this MAC palette! I guess this is the holiday palette this year! So pretty!!!

My other co-worker gave me this perfume. Funny story. I told her, "what's that smell? is that your perfume? Smells really good!" She said, "yeah its the Burberry Sport for women" Then lo and behold, she got me one! hahaha! :) She said I'm like a daughter to her. How sweet! I have the best co workers ever!! :)

Sis & bro in law gave me more make up to play! Nymphette l/g and Kitchmas pigment. Such nice colors :) So excited to play with them!

Now my other co worker who thinks I'm nuts for having all of these hello kitty items gave me a hello kitty pillow. He said I am always yawning at work! Hahaha! Well, I feel tired all the time :( But thank you for the pillow! I love it very much!! It's very cute!

See how long this HK pillow is? *hugs it tight*

More Hello Kitty stuff given by my family and friends! ♥

Such a lovely watch! I have to take it to a shop to adjust the size. Too big for my wrist.

My favorite!! ♥ I love it! It matches the coin purse Rina gave me! :D

That's all :) But let's not forget the true meaning of Christmas. (of course I have few friends who don't celebrate Christmas and I respect that) It's not about the gift we receive, but its also about giving, sharing, forgiving, and the birth of Jesus Christ. Thank You everyone & I hope you all have great holidays! Merry Christmas once again & I hope you all have a great New Year as well!
