    First off my thanks to Crest and the beauty review club for letting me review this nice new product !

    Ok here are my positive comments , This product works well, and the quality has improved the strips stay put way better then the older strips version ...

    You can definitely see a whiter smile :) I've been smiling more ...
    Now on the other side : I did suffer some major tooth sensitivity ( I normaly drink hot beverages or cold ones
    with no problem ) But with this product I was somewhat in pain but that only lasted about 1 day ...

    So the day after I had no issues while drinking my hot tea !

    That being said , I would still recommend it to most people because Im reallly happy with the results !
    But if you suffer already from serious tooth sensitivity it might not be for you ...

    Like some of the chicks said hopefuly the price goes down a bit , then i would definitely buy it !

    Everytime I go to the grocery store, I eye the Crest Whitestripes ... $54.00 is a lot to pay for something that I dont know how effective it will be. Then I was accepted as a tester !! My lucky day !!! I will say that I will no longer, just eye it .. but I will be putting it in my grocery cart !!! I cant not believe the difference, after just one use.

    It was Monday night, and I decided tonight is the night to try these out. I excitingly read the instructions, 3 times (I didnt want to screw this up!!) got the package opened, had my mirror ready and I was sitting at my kitchen table... I was a little confused where the longer strip went ... instructions are not too clear on that part. Finally figured it out and I applied them with ease. The next two hours flew by as I was watching some shows from the previous week that I had missed.

    When I removed them ... I was INSTANTLY impressed ... Now, I have always had nice straight white teeth. Since hitting my 30's they seem to get less white each year. I could immediately see a difference, see that brightness once again. I must have looked in a mirror and grinned about 150 times that night !!!

    Also, I found my teeth feeling so smooth and refreshed. Now here it is, a few days later and that feeling is still there. I find this absolutely amazing.


    This is a product I will start to use, sure the price is a little steep .. but its well worth it in my books. I am so impressed with this product, I have been complimented on my pearly whites forever, and with Crest Whitestripes I will continue to get those compliments.

    Well I had seen this on the store shelves and always thought to myself "Heck NO" I wasnt about to pay almost 60bucks to stick things to my teeth without knowing there was going to be an actual result. Well I tried it and was pleased to see it did whiten my teeth. It was a lil annoying to have something in my mouth for 2 hrs and felt like it was coming off sometimes but I got through it. Glad its not just a one time use and they give you enough for the year. Id be willing to buy it again and recomend it to ppl that cant afford the high cost of the Dentist!

    I received this product as part of the product review club. I was really excited when I received the Whitestrips Express kit and was hoping for good results! When I opened the box I was surprised to see 4 tiny little foil pouches in a really big box - I know we're rating the product, but packaging could be a little less ;) I was also a little nervous about trying them as there were very basic instructions included with the package.

    The strips themselves were super sticky. When I first put it on I was afraid that it would be sliding all around but it didn't! Once its in place, its REALLY in place, so you better get it positioned correctly on the first try. My teeth aren't perfectly straight and I found it a little awkward to try to get my teeth fully covered. As for tooth sensitivity, towards the end of the 2 hours I found that my teeth were a little achy, and I had a couple of sharp jabs of pain. That's when I decided that it had been long enough and went to remove the strips.... It was a little difficult to remove the strips but they finally came off leaving only a little bit of residue which came off when I brushed my teeth. I saw immediate results, whiter and felt so clean! The only downside is that a couple of my teeth are still a little yellow around the gumline where my teeth are uneven... but its hardly noticeable. And the pain/sensitivity went away pretty much as soon as the strips were removed. As for the retail price of the kit, I think it might be a little high (approx $60-$70), but I guess when you look at it as being 4 treatments its still cheaper than the dentist. Not sure that I would pay full retail for it though.

    I have to say that I'm really surprised by the results of the Crest 3D Whitestrips Express, and very happy! I will definitely use the other 3 treatments (thanks Chickadvisor!) and will be recommending it to friends. I just hope it comes down in price before I have to buy it again!

    I would like to thank the Chickadvisor ladies and Crest for the opportunity to test and review Crest 3d- 2 hour express whitestrips.This is the first review that I'm wishing for a( I'm in the middle) of You betcha and fugheddaboutit.I tried this product yesterday and wanted to give it 24 hours before doing my review..The pros outweighed the cons so I decided to recommend this product.

    Before receiving the white strips I went and checked out crests website http://www.3dwhite.com.Under whitening results/photo whitening tool you can upload a picture of yourself and see what the results would be after using the white strips.There are also coupons and a free sample of the white strip and toothpaste for anyone who would like the opportunity to try these.After reading through the site and there's lots of information there about whitening I was really excited to try this product.I have tried the 30 minute strips many years ago so was curious to see the differences

    I was little shocked at the packaging I think it could be downsized a bit.Its this big box with these four small packs of strips.It just seemed a waste of packaging.The strips were much more sturdy then how I remember the old ones which were so flimsy and would slide around on my teeth.These fit perfectly snug and comfortable I could see foaming from the peroxide under the strips but there was no taste.I liked the fact that it was 2 hours actually 30 minute a day with the older ones I could never keep up with.These you just slap them on and just keep busy for 2 hours.I took some quiet time and read a book..The 2 hours actually flew by for me.When taking the strips off they are really snug on your teeth and leave residue.The directions said to either wipe,brush or rinse after removing.I wiped with a soft cloth and then brushed.

    My teeth felt really smooth and looked as stated by crest to be a shade whiter.I looked in my 10X magnifying mirror and that's when I could really see it worked!I could see at the very tops of the gum line these fine yellow lines. So that's the shade it was before!My teeth weren't badly stained just a mild yellow as I do drink cola and red wine on occasion so its natural teeth will yellow from these.I have straight teeth so they fit very well but I can imagine if someones teeth were crooked it may be a little harder to apply.

    The con about this product....Well about an hour after taking off the strips I had major sensitivity my teeth ached all night.It was very annoying.However this morning my teeth are feeling fine if they were still hurting this morning this would have been a different review!I'm wondering if its the fact that this product was on my teeth for 2 hours?Perhaps to long for people with sensitivity's.I do not recall having this pain with the 30 minute strip.

    The end results are I have much whiter teeth they look and feel better.The sensitivity was only temporary so these are worth it for me!I brush daily with whitening toothpaste and use whitening mouthwash and even chew whitening gum and haven't been able to get the results I did with the whitestrips.The results state it will work for three months and there are three more upper and lower strips in the pack.So this whitening system is good for a year!Thanks again Chickadvisor and Crest!

    These strips are pretty good. I recommend patting your teeth dry with paper towel prior to applying them so the strips go on smoothly and stick. I didn’t last the full 2 hours because i was A) terrified that my tooth enamel would completely wear off and B) I would never be able to eat ice cream again.!
    Regardless, they did whiten my teeth (not blinding white, but brighter than what they were), so i can only imagine what it would be like when i leave it on for 2 hours. My teeth felt sensitive but that wore off the next day. I would recommend these strips because they stick to your teeth and they actually do whiten, and lets face it-any kind of whitening will cause some pain/sensitivity in order to get brighter, whiter teeth.

    In the interest of full disclosure, I did receive the 2 hour express whitestips via chickadvisor as part of their product review panel. However, I found out that the product retails for around $70.00 which I found a little on the high side. That being said, the box lasts the whole year, as you are supposed to do a treatment every four months or so.

    First - it is hard to find two hours in a day to do the whitening (it is a little awkward to talk with them in and I felt like I was lisping on the phone when I had to take a call that came up), but at least you only have to apply once instead of several days in a row as with previous whitening treatments I have tried. The strips adhered to my teeth really well and weren't as slippery/prone to moving around as other whitening strips I have tried in the past. After two hours (during which time I did notice the peroxide taste in my mouth from time to time, but it wasn't too bad or worse than other whitening strips I have tried), I removed the strips and brushed my teeth to get rid of the peroxide residue and I did notice my teeth had whitened several shades. Noticeable, but not Donny Osmond bright. I liked the results and will do it again in another few months as directed.

    With respect to tooth sensitivity, I have experienced it in the past for a few days after whitening, but so far, I don't notice any sensitivity this time with the 2 hour express. All around a good product that does what it says it is going to do. Don't expect perfectly white teeth, but do expect a noticeable whitening of your teeth. The price is a little hefty, but beats what the dentists charge for what I think are fairly comparable results.

    Update: After writing this review (about 6 hours post application), I did start feeling some sensitivity in my teeth that was fairly intense - two advil didn't really do anything to relieve the pain. However, it was short lived (lasted for a few hours). However, given the pain, I'm not sure I would do it again - certainly not as frequently as the box suggests - maybe just once a year?

    Yes ladies, I know, your probably thinking "2 hours" Really? Well 2 hours without that ice cream is well worth it!!! Yes, my teeth were a bit sensitive after taking them off but that went away after the day. This product actually made my teeth 2 shades whiter!!! Love this! and you only have to do it once every 3 months!

    I have used several Crest whitening products in the past, including the daily Crest Whitestrips, so I have to admit that I had pretty high expectations for Crest 3D White Whitestrips 2 prior to testing it out.

    At first glance there was nothing different about these Whitestrips. The additional instructions included for the product review were helpful as the ones in the kit were rather limited. I found that the bottom strips were fairly easy to put on and attached well. I had more difficulty using the top strips as I felt they did not lay properly and didn't feel as secure as the bottom strips.

    Once I had both strips on I set my alarm for 2 hours and went about my day. I noticed immediately that the bottom strip felt much better then the top. The bottom strip felt thicker and more secure while the top kept sliding off at the edges. I found it odd that the bottom strip seemed to be much better quality and felt more effective than the top strip as I would have thought they would be the same.

    It took me a couple of tries to remove the strips after the 2 hours were up. I felt that the results weren't quite as dramatic as I would have liked. My teeth were whiter but I did not feel that the product was as effective as I would have like. I wonder if using this product would have been the same as keeping the daily white strips on for a longer period of time?

    I would recommend this product for someone who doesn't whiten their teeth on a regular basis or who hasn't before as it is nice to be able to do it in just one go. I wouldn't recommend it for someone expecting a step up from their normal teeth whitening procedure.

    I was really excited to receive this product through the Product Review Club.

    I had tried Crest Whitestrips before but never the 2 hour one. I agree there were little to no instructions included in the product.

    When I went to apply the first strip it got stuck to my lip and was uncomfortable to pull off. Very sticky indeed! Unlike the other 14 day ones, once they are on you cannot move the strip if you have placed it accidentally. I found the gel leaked out of them the same as the old ones, so I had to leave my mouth open to try to dry it out so I wouldn't keep swallowing it (one instruction they DID include). I didn't like how I couldn't drink water for 2 hours.

    Pulling them off was a bit uncomfortable but left my teeth very smooth. How much whiter I can't tell, I definitely did not see as what I expected from past experiences. I did not experience any tooth sensitivity but did brush my teeth right after to get rid of excess gel.

    If I had to choose I would do the 14 day pack over the 2 hour pack.
