Carbon Coco Teeth Whitening First Impressions

29/09/2017

I’m really excited to write this post because this is my first EVER piece of blogger mail that I’m reviewing today!
So Carbon Coco found my channel on YouTube and emailed me a while back to ask whether I’d be interested in reviewing some of their products and sharing some content on my channel and blog once I’d received it.
I’ve had a few emails/comments on Instagram similar to this and the company’s have been a bit dodgy in the past so I’ve previously given it a miss. But I was intrigued by this one and thought I would give them a quick Google to see what they’re all about!
They’re an Australian brand that have quite a big following online, testimonials were really good and they looked like a lot of fun. A little snippet I took from their website;

Carbon Coco is your holistic alternative to oral health. We have carefully chosen 100% natural ingredients to safely whiten and polish your teeth, strengthen their enamel, detoxify your mouth, and keep your breath fresh without any risk what so ever from harmful chemicals or additives.

After establishing they were a legit business that seemed quite successful, I replied with my address to say I’d love to give it a try!
They sent me the Complete Carbon Kit which is one of their bestsellers to trial

In the kit you get;

  • Activated Charcoal tooth polish
  • Activated Charcoal toothpaste
  • Coconut Oil for oil pulling
  • Toothbrush
  • Tongue scraper
  • Silk bag
  • Instruction guide

Straight up, I’m going to tell you this can get messy so make sure to do everything over the sink!

I’ve included below an outline of the 2 products I tried out below which they sent to me before receiving my parcel;
The Activated Charcoal Tooth Polish
Unlike the usual activated charcoal from health stores, this is made of finely milled Organic Coconut Activated Charcoal with a hint of Bentonite Clay and Lemon Myrtle.
This special formula is proven to be very gentle yet effective in detoxifying the mouth and removing stains! It has zero taste and smell.
Instructions:
Dip a wet toothbrush in the jar (just lightly coat the brush- a little goes a long way!), brush in gentle circles for 2-3 min, rinse and brush with the toothpaste.
Please use this before bedtime to give time for any residue to dislodge overnight. Results are usually seen in 7-14 days.
The Activated Charcoal Toothpaste
This is a toothpaste formula that doesn’t have fluoride. It also contains our magic ingredient: activated charcoal!
The toothpaste is black but turns into white foam while brushing, and it has a yummy minty taste.
The toothpaste is designed to protect your teeth from further staining throughout the day, so you won’t mess up your results if you love coffee and coloured drinks!
Instructions:

Brush with this toothpaste after using the tooth polish at night and in place of your regular toothpaste during the day. We also suggest using this instead of your regular brand after the 14-day treatment to maintain your results.
I filmed a first impressions video which you can check out below;

Final Thoughts

  • This can be very messy if you’re not careful!
  • My teeth feel amazingly clean – like after the dentist has scraped all the shit off your teeth clean
  • I saw a slight improvement on a bit of yellowing I have on one side of my mouth 

Would I recommend?!
Yes! For the first ever promo, this was an amazing company to start with! They were really friendly, I genuinely liked the product and am looking forward to sharing my update in a few months time after some more use!
If you’re interested in giving this a try, visit their website here
Let me know if youve tried this previously and what you thought of it!

    I have been so skeptical in trying teeth whitening products but it seems that charcoal products are the way to go! May have to give this brand a try 🙂

      Definitely recommend them – I’ve dabbled in teeth whiteners before but they’ve always left my teeth feeling sensitive, this one didn’t which was great!!

    Interesting… I struggle with the staining on my teeth due to the amount of tea I drink on a daily basis (my dentist always gives me a hard time about it lol) so I have been debating trying a whitener!

      It’s the only one I’ve tried that hasn’t left my teeth feeling overly sensitive so definitely think it’s worth a try!

Thought I’d make another appearance on here sinc Thought I’d make another appearance on here since it’s been over a year since my last post, so here’s one from my Tiktok #sustainableootd #ootd #vintedfinds
Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise birthday outing last night, although I’m definitely feeling it today! Love you both loads ❤️❤️
So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to make myself feel like I was going somewhere tonight by putting a full face of makeup on, with the intention of sitting on the sofa sharing a bottle of Disaronno with Aaron to see the new year in! We might hit up the kitchen, the living room and Aaron suggested the bathroom but I wasn’t sure 😂 what have you got planned for tonight? And Happy New Year to everyone!
And that’s Christmas over for another year (alth And that’s Christmas over for another year (although let’s be honest, 2020 may as well not have happened!) and I just hope to god 2021 is a damn site better for everyone! Since I’ve been attempting to cut out purchasing brand new clothing all together, bar a few items such as underwear and pyjamas, I’m hoping once Hertfordshire is out of Tier 4 that I can head to the shops and do some serious secondhand shopping and use the vouchers I got to buy myself some new beauty bits. How was your quiet Christmas and have you got any beauty recommendations for me? #hertsbloggers #fashionbloggeruk #ukfashionblogger #ukstyleblogger #hertsbloggerlove #sustainablefashionblogger #secondhandfashionblogger #petitebloggeruk #petitefashionbloggeruk #outfitinspo #mylookoftheday #ootdshare #ukfashionblog #petitestyle #hertfordshirebloggers #funkyfashion #ukfashion #ootdinspo #canon700d #canon #amatuerphotography #aspiringfashionblogger #aspiringblogger
