First things first: I love using the Glo Brilliant Personal Teeth Whitening Device, yet, it was given to me and costs nearly $200.00 at Sephora — and I buy my refills for $45.00 when needed.

It works. It’s won awards and is incredibly efficient. With that being said, I agreed to sample the Prime Time Smile Active Blue Teeth Whitening Kit ($44.00) because it was more affordable and was said to whiten teeth in less than 30-minutes!

It’s an easy enough product to use. You first apply the whitening gel via a pen brush and then hold a dentist-inspired active blue-LED light in your mouth to activate and accelerate the whitening gel.

You apply the light initially for 10-minutes and repeat the process a second time to complete one treatment. I saw a slight difference after 20-minutes and believe if I continue to use this system, it would in fact make my teeth whiter.

I prefer the ease of the GLO system, as I found it a bit uncomfortable to hold the dentist-inspired device in my mouth for the two 10-minute sessions. It did work though — it made my teeth slightly lighter in one treatment.

It is said to be able to whiten your teeth up to 5+ shades with virtually no sensitivity, and you can also use the system as often as you’d like. It’s an affordable product that I believe, over time, can improve the shade of your pearly whites!
