Luster Premium White Review

Being a part of BzzAgent, I get to try some of the newest  products available.  That's right up my alley.  I love trying new things.  This time I decided to share this review with Neil.  So he's taking over on Cotton Pickin Cute today and will be our review expert for Luster Premium White - 1 Hour White today.  I had to pull a few teeth (I couldn't resist the pun) to get him to post pictures.
Hi everyone, I'm Neil and and I'd like to share my thoughts on the Luster Whitening System, in my first review today.

Every time we see the whitening products in the store, we stop to look but never buy.  I've had my doubts about whether they would really work. Finally, I get to find out first hand.  I'll start with a before pic.

Here's a few facts from the Luster pamphlet:

  • The Luster 1 Hour White system is the only whitening product that offers the same light activating technology as your dentist.
  • Whiten on your schedule - they guarantee that you'll start seeing results in as little as 30 minutes.  That's 2X faster than strips. 
  • Satisfaction guaranteed.  If you're not satisfied, they will refund the price of your purchase.
Sounds good to me.  Let's put it to the test.

The package includes:
  1. Accelerator Mouth Rinse
  2. Super Whitener Gel
  3. Activating Whitening Light - with 4 AAA batteries included
The instructions are simple.  3 Easy Steps.
  1. Rinse with Accelerator Mouth Rinse
  2. Brush each tooth with Super Whitener Gel
  3. Apply Activating Whitening Light for 2 Minutes
You can repeat steps 1-3 up to one hour for a beautiful, whiter smile.

Here's the after photo.
This was after doing 15 - 2 minute treatments over 2 days.  You can do this up to 20X's.  So that gives me 5 more treatments to go.

It did a better job than I thought it would and  I wouldn't hesitate to buy it myself or recommend it to friends.  

I'm really impressed by how much whiter they are and how much cleaner they look in general.  During the first 10 treatments I didn't experience any sensitivity but during the last 5 my teeth started feeling slightly sensitive.  Would it stop me from using it again.  No way,  it wasn't that bad and the results were totally worth it.  It's recommended that you should perform 5 treatments every 2-3 months.  I will.

Let's take a look at one more before and after picture together.

After
This is after only 15 of the 20 suggested treatments.

Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Tower Fan Is Keeping Me Cool Review

During these dog days of summer, there are two things that don't go hand and hand.  That's staying cool and lower electric bills.  Honeywell QuietSet Tower Fan can help with that.

With prices rising on everything from food to gas Neil have been taking a hard to find things that we can control to save money.  When Neil started talking about setting the thermostat higher, poison darts flew from my eyes.  Are you serious?  We live in Florida for goodness sakes!

All in all, I knew he was right.  For the past month I've been able to really review the QuietSet Whole Room Tower Fan (HY-280).  We moved our thermostat up from 74 to 77 during the day and up from 72 to 76 during the night.  We replaced our small oscillating desktop fan in the bedroom with the QuietSet and boy did it make a difference.  We were more comfortable while we slept and best of all was the quiet factor. 

The Honeywell QuietSet® Whole Room Tower Fan uses the new and revolutionary QuietSet® technology which lets you choose from 8 levels of quiet operation as you adjust the cooling power of this fan. Use the fan to help you feel cooler and more comfortable without the excessive noise of a standard fan! This sleek and elegant fan is perfect for a medium to large room while offering you a chance to save up to 20% on heating and cooling bills.

 I really like the slim, elegant look and being able to keep the remote control next to the bed makes operating it a breeze (forgive the pun).  It's takes up a minimum of space and isn't visually distracting like other fans.   The fan is appropriate for medium to large rooms.  Our bedroom is 15 ft x 18 ft and it's cools just fine. 

There are so many wonderful features with the QuietSet.  Powerful, quiet, whole room circulation with 8 levels of Quiet Control including "whisper" and "white noise”.  Sleek LED Electronic Controls with Auto Shut-Off Timer has multiple settings (1, 2, 4, and 8 hour settings).  The Remote Control Nest and Cord Management Oscillation keeps things looking neat.  It has an Easy-to-carry handle. 

I was given the opportunity from the company to review the fan but I whole-heartily would recommend this the Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Tower fan to anyone.  With an MSRP of $69.99 and a 1 Year Warranty, it's an affordable option for any household.

Disclosure:  The product(s) provided for the review were sent to me free of charge from the company or the PR agency. All opinions are my own and were not influenced in anyway.
