DIY Teeth Whitening Solution!

Here is a link to a real simple, 2 step method, easy to do yourself rinse & paste to whiten your teeth!

Easy Teeth Whitening For Any Budget

"How to Whiten Your Teeth at Home:
- To whiten your smile, swap your normal mouthwash with hydrogen peroxide or mix it 1/2 & 1/2 with the mouthwash. Swish the liquid around your mouth and through your teeth for a good minute before spitting it out. Once you spit it out, go ahead and rinse your mouth with water to get the taste out.
- Right after rinsing, brush your teeth using a baking soda/toothpaste mixture. To make this mixture, put a tiny bit of toothpaste into a small cup, and then mix in one teaspoon of the baking soda and half a teaspoon of water. Once the concoction has been thoroughly mixed together and is the consistency of a paste, use it to brush your teeth. Brush your teeth for two minutes, just as you do regularly, and then spit it out. Upon completion, you will have successfully created a whitening treatment comparable to many popular products you’ll find in stores.
- Remember to do the two step whitening process once a week until you have reached the results you want. Once your teeth are good and white, limit yourself to using the whitening treatment once every month or two." It'a a great site, a lot of ideas there! I recommend you check it out, I'm having fun perusing it! Enjoy!

Here's another take on a DIY scrub..

Pretty simple really:

What You Need:
- Glass Jar
- 2 cups of salt { this could be made with Brown Sugar instead }
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- A sprinkle of Lemon Zest * Optional

Mix all ingredients in your glass jar. Run off and have a shower and scrub down! But as another post-er said, make sure to wash down the residue of this scrub from your tub, don't want any accidents! If you use organic Salt or Sugar & organic olive oil, it will be all natural, organic, homemade! I've seen this sort of recipe on many different pages, sorry I don't recall where it came from!
