Thank you ChickAdvisor and Crest for the opportunity to try Crest 3D Whitestrips 2 hours express!

They did whiten my teeth noticeably--to my standards. When I asked the hubby if he noticed... he didn't. So it wasn't dramatic. I did the red lipstick test because that's when I can really tell how stained my teeth are and I have to say... not too bad!!

I didn't taste any peroxide due to the tight TIGHT grip these strips had on my teeth, they leave residue behind but I just rinsed it off with my fingers under running water.

Initially I didn't feel sensitivity, after about 1 hour after removing the strips, I noticed the familiar burn. DARN!

I don't mind the length of 2 hours, I noticed some other reviewers found this as a negative. I have found in the past, the half hour requires me to hang around home, while these 2 hour ones allowed me to go grocery shopping or make dinner. I didn't mind the wait.

Read the instructions! When you apply the strips, the instructions tell you to hold the strip in place for several seconds, probably to create that tight bond. Its not like the commercials where the model just swipes it on then hops in her cute car. Do it right--it just takes a couple minutes!

Overall, I was satisfied... satisfied enough to buy some? Not for everyday, but I do have my wedding coming up and this couldn't have come at a better time.


Only natural teeth can be whitened.

Safe for your tooth enamel, a years supply (4 packs, 1 every three months) give it a shot!

I tried these strips first thing right after I got them in the mail early this afternoon. I was really excited after hearing from some other reviews (not in chickadvisor) about how they do wonders to your teeth. So i left them on for two hours and here's what I have to say:

First of all, with the Advanced Seal, they did stay on my teeth the whole time and didn't shift around, even when I was drinking water! So that's definitely as true as advertised. After 2 hours when I removed them, however, I did find them difficult to remove. The gel was stuck to some of my teeth and the bottom strip was not as long as I would have preferred.

But overall, it did what it needed to do, which was to help whiten my teeth. I have tried using Crest Classic whitestrips as well as the Crest Advanced Vivid strips, which were okay, but didn't do as well as I'd think. This two hour express strip whitened teeth too, but not as good as their advanced vivid ones. My teeth maybe got whiter by one shade max, nothing more than that. Nevertheless, it did do it's job but i would stick to my Advanced Vivid strips instead. It takes more than two hours, but has greater results. Within 2 hours, I guess this is as good as it can get.

Just finished trying these strips out, sadly I wasn't terribly impressed. I've only used the original crest whitestrips which, after trying this, I prefer the original.

These stick to your teeth really well which is a bonus compared to the originals which tended to slide around a bit. The gel still oozed out the sides of the plastic so it was pretty annoying and gross. I did nap with these on (not sure if that's safe..) which made the 2 hours way more bearable. I napped for about an hour and I have to say waiting the rest of the hour was agony, just the gooeyness and weird taste. 2 hours is a really long time to have these in, I much prefer doing strips daily as opposed to this 2 hour method.

My teeth really weren't that stained to begin with, I do use a "whitening" toothpaste but I haven't noticed a change in the color of my teeth and I'm on my 3rd tube. I don't smoke but I do drink a iced coffee in the morning but I do brush after to prevent staining. After using the strips my teeth were a little whiter but nothing major, I got better results after 2 weeks of original crest whitestrips

Overall, I wasn't impressed with the results, if my boyfriend notices my teeth a different then I will do an update but honestly if I'm not scrutinizing my teeth they look more or less the same as before. I would suggest trying the originals.

I was thrilled to receive the 2 hour express white strips in the mail from Chickadvisor. I had tried Crest Whitestrips before but hadn't gotten around to buying them again to refresh my white smile. Overall, I was happy with the result!

After having tried the original Whitestrips which you have to leave on for 30 minutes each day, the 2 hours was a bit long so I took them off after 1 1/2 hours! It definitely brightened my smile a lot, so I can maintain my pearly whites (which people commented on after whitening!)

Another bonus is that these strips adhere a lot better to your teeth so you don't have to worry about them coming off. However, the gel once again oozed out of the edges while the strips were on and gummed up my mouth. Kind of gross...but beauty comes with a price. All in all, I would say these are great for a time saving whitening treatment!

I was so excited to get these so I tried it right away! I really liked how well these stuck to my teeth so I didn't have to worry about them slipping off while I was talking and I was even able to have a little water with a straw (2 hours is a long time!). I just wore them while doing some housework to kill the time. When I took them off, I didn't notice a difference right away but when I went into natural light I could tell that my teeth were a few shades whiter. Definitely not a drastic change but a decent one! I'd say this gives the same results in 2 hours that the 10 or 7 days strips give in their respective time frames. So it's just accelerated results. Don't expect you'll have a SUPER white smile in 2 hours. You may still have to use this a couple times to even mix it with a 7 or 10 day treatment if you want something more dramatic.

I was worried I'd have some tooth sensitivity since I got the impression these strips would be really strong and I sometimes have mild sensitivity. But I had no senstivity at all.

One box comes with enough strips to last a year. They recommend a treatment every 3 months so there's 4 treatments in total. I would purchase this because then you pay about $55 (less with a coupon) for a full year of whitening treatments! Not a bad deal at all. Other Crest treatments are like $30-40 but only last the week or so. All in all, I like it and I'd use this for my regular whitening routine!

I got the Crest whitestrips fedex'ed to me on Friday and didn't have time to try it until yesterday night. I put it on at 9:30pm and hoped for a miracle. I don't smoke or drink so my teeth don't look yellow but I can't say they are at their pearliest whites. The strip is great because once you put it on, they don't budge. I was able to drink water through a straw if I got thirsty. The instructions weren't so clear on how to put on the stripes. At 11:30pm I took off the stripes and was thoroughly disappointed I did not see any change. There was sticky peroxide gunk so I decided to brush my teeth and surely the stickiness was removed. Sure I saw flecks of white spots but not an overall change. I also did some research and found these only give a "noticable" change rather than dramatic. If would not pay the $54.99 retail price, and neither with their $15 coupon on their site either. I'm glad I gave these a try before purchasing it myself. I am tempted to buy their vivid stripes but we'll see. Overall I was disappointed in this product.
plus the strips aren't long enough to cover at least half your bottom teeth, nor can they fold over all the way to the top teeth front to back.

Whitening strips work great if used ongoing especially if your a tea drinker or smoker. Its usually the cost that is a deal breaker in this economy.
