Self Care: Best at Home Teeth Whitening!

sbgeneral

If I do anything well, it’s taking care of my family! And if I’m horrible at one thing…it’s taking care of myself. Most moms can agree with this, and it’s not necessarily because I don’t love to be pampered – I just don’t frequently make the time! I mean my focus is often my boys: making sure they look awesome, eat really well (counting donuts as breakfast), and doing my best at this mom deal. If you ask me what I do for myself, most days my morning coffee is still on the counter cold, I’m wearing the same jeans from a day ago (also that’s all that fits right now – pregnant life), and I’m simply just overlooking myself.

So when Smile Brilliant contacted me, I knew it was a sign that I needed to fit some “mommy care” time into my life! In fact it was perfect timing, as I’ve had to put on my agenda slowing down and making sure that I’m taking care of myself. In addition to taming my eyebrows more consistently and putting on mascara more often, enhancing my smile was a no brainer. If you haven’t noticed, I love to smile… I mean really love to smile, it’s one of my favorite features. With the holidays around and our most recent trip to Disney, all I’ve been doing is smiling! However, as a deep lover of coffee, that doesn’t always mix well with bright shiny teeth. That’s where Smile Brilliant has come to the rescue!

Smile Brilliant is an at home whitening system that is so simple, honestly even this busy mom can make time for. The package arrived right at my door with all the tools I needed to not only create a mouth tray, but also the whitening and desensitizing gels for when I was able to get started! The boys were completely fascinated by the teeth mold process as my mouth was filled with blue paste (total boy approval). Once I shipped off my mold I didn’t have to worry, because I got an email letting me know when my teeth trays were headed back to me! I’m really impressed with the results and love that you can use the custom fitted trays 1x a week or more frequently if you needed a brighter smile quickly! Check out my results below:

As I started using Smile Brilliant and sharing with friends I got some great questions! One of the main ones surrounded sensitive teeth. With the whitening system you also receive desensitizing gel that eases this process. I do have sensitive teeth, so this was extremely useful to me and being able to touch base online with the helpful team at Smile Brilliant allows full access to any concerns you may have as well! So no worries fellow friends with sensitive teeth, we’re covered. I also was asked regarding the teeth trays… I mean do they really fit? For me it was a YES! The trays fit like a glove and are not uncomfortable at all. Even if you had a challenge with your trays, you can always reach out to have them adjusted…see how well you’re taken care of?

I don’t just want to keep all of this goodness to myself, I most certainly wan to share it with you! The team at Smile Brilliant would like to giveaway to one of you a teeth whitening system of your own! Perfect to kick off your New Year!

ENTER TO WIN!

  • This time last year, the Lord started challenging the thought of pausing our homeschooling journey. Honestly… I wasn’t happy about it because it wasn’t part of my plan. Even the kids weren’t fully on board at first. 🥹

If I’m being honest, part of me felt like I was losing. Homeschooling isn’t easy, and after years of pouring into our kids, I wrestled with whether putting them in school meant I had somehow failed them.

But somehow through all the emotions, questions, and transitions, we made it through their first year in school.

And wow… proud is an understatement.

Each of them shattered every stereotype people love to place on homeschooled kids. They shined bright, made meaningful friendships, adapted with courage, and walked into new spaces fully themselves.

This year reminded me that what is poured into our kids at home goes with them wherever they go. Everything we’ve prayed over them, spoken over them, and believed about them showed up in real time.

Watching them succeed didn’t make me feel like I had failed. It reminded me that this season wasn’t the end of something. It was evidence that God had been faithful through all of it. ❤️

  • It’s only fitting to have an interview with the Champion 😂 - just in case you’re ready to enter into the pencil fighting ring one day 👀
  • Learned how to pencil fight from what appears to be a retired middle school pencil-fighting champion. His technique was oddly specific… like this man definitely had a reputation in 7th grade 😂✏️

  • Random Friday thoughts… because I can’t shop anyone’s like it at this point 😒
  • Someone recently asked me when I realized I had experienced agape love… and honestly, my first thought was my mom and my sister.

Life has held its share of complicated chapters, and I know what it’s like to navigate distance and hard seasons. Getting older and healing has a way of adjusting the lens. Hindsight really does show you the gifts that were there all along.

This weekend we celebrated my sister’s birthday, and looking back at this photo of us as kids, I’m reminded how precious it is to grow up and realize your big sister is truly your best friend.

Some love doesn’t need to be loud to be deep. I’m really grateful. #sistersister
