Tooth Whitening for €13.45!?

We know lots of you are keen to get the pearliest gnashers you can, and we've blogged about Crest Whitestrips and Smiles dental clinics before. But of course the big problem with whitening procedures and products is that they can be hugely expensive or hard to come by here. So I was gobsmacked when I saw the Remedent CleverWhite One-Step Tooth Whitening kit on buycosmetics.com for THIRTEEN EURO AND FORTY FIVE CENT!

Surely not! If this blog post was animated, you'd see me rubbing my eyes in disbelief right now, and as it's not, you'll just have to imagine that that's what I'm doing.

But surely yes folks. It is indeed only €13.45, which is a colossal saving of 74%. It also promises whiter teeth in just 5 days. But how? Well, the whitening system uses innovative one-size fits all trays that have been pre-filled with just the right amount of whitening gel. You ram your gob in and let your gnashers soak for 30 minutes, remove face from trays and then chuck them out. The next day you repeat, using fresh trays of gel. After 5 days and a mountain of recyclables, you have whiter teeth. Yay!

And lest you think the price means it probably contains toilet bleach, the formulation has been declared safe to use by independent European laboratories.
