5 Reasons Why I Chose to Whiten My Teeth At Home

May 21, 2018 by kim 4 Comments

As a new mom (again), it’s hard for me to find time for myself. I have a toddler and four month old at home, so my time is spent wrestling both of them while trying to remember to feed them. Once they’re asleep (which they hardly are at the same time), I have to cook, clean, run errands, and sleep. My to-do list is never-ending and I’m never caught up, but all moms have to make some time for themselves sometime!

When Smile Brilliant reached out, I knew it was the perfect for me. I was obsessed with teeth whitening back in high school thanks to Crest Whitestrips, but I haven’t had any time to do it again since. If I can do it while juggling two kiddos, so can you. Here’s why I chose to whiten at home:

1. Time.

I don’t have time to actually go out and get my teeth whitened by a professional. With Smile Brilliant, I have the convenience of doing it at home and on my own time. I never have to leave the house or worry about finding someone to watch my two kids.

2. Convenience.

Like I said before, I don’t have to go anywhere to get it done. Everything is done via snail mail and once I got my molds, I was able to whiten while I watched T.V., do laundry, cook, give my kids a bath, or even swim!

3. It’s a fraction of the cost.

By cutting out the middle man, you’re able to save quite a bit with the same results. For the complete teeth whitening system for light-stains, it’s only $139 as opposed to the $600+ that they would charge you at the dentist.

4. I’ve got nothing to lose.

Smile Brilliant offers a money back guarantee. They want you to be happy and believe in their product so if for any reason you’re unhappy, they offer a complete refund (minus shipping fees). It’s a win win situation.

5. Once you’ve got your tray, you can whiten again in a couple of years without paying full price.

All you need to buy is some additional whitening gel and desensitizing gel. There’s no wasted money on purchasing a tray again (unless you need to!).

Back in the day, Crest Whitestrips worked quite well on me. My teeth were still pretty white from ten years ago, but Smile Brilliant brought it to another level. I’ve become quite the coffee drinker after having kids, and Smile Brilliant erased those years away from my teeth. I show my smile proudly now with my two kids. Don’t believe me? Here’s what 9 days of whitening did:

There’s no editing at all done to these photos besides adding the text. Can you believe it? It truly made a difference in my life!

I did each session for two to three hours every night and slept right after. It didn’t ruin my schedule at all– I simply incorporated it into my bedtime routine. Eat dinner, put the tray in, get the kids to bed, and then catch up on shows until I was done. If I knew I wouldn’t have time to do it at night, I snuck it in after lunch instead.

The entire process was a breeze from beginning to end. Just make sure to read the instructions from start to end before you do anything!

Wooden Watches: The Perfect Unique Piece For Your Spring Wardrobe

April 12, 2018 by kim 6 Comments


I was never really into watches until I became a flight attendant. It was required as part of our uniform, so I had to wear one pretty much every day. Once I got into it, I couldn’t stop. Watches were so convenient! Why didn’t I wear them before?!

I started buying them in all different colors and sizes. Leather bands… black bands… large faces… you name it, I got it. I had to switch them every day in order to match my outfits. Well, that’s until I discovered JORD watches. They’re unique wooden watches that match with everything!

 

The Perfect Gift

Not only are wooden watches perfect for yourself, but they’re also great for gifting. They come in an impressive wooden box (as pictured above) with a magnetic closure. The presentation is unique and memorable. JORD watches come in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes to please even the pickiest recipient.

The beauty of wood is that it truly complements every color. It’s light, easy to wear, and effortlessly completes your look. I can dress it up or down depending on my outfit.

About My Watch

The women’s watch that I’m wearing is called the Frankie Zebrawood & Champagne. It has a minimalist look while still being luxurious at the same time.

This spring, I’ll be pairing my Frankie with high waisted denim, maxi dresses, and shortalls. If I had still had a uniform to wear, I’d be pairing it with that too (I’m at home with the kiddos now). It even goes with gold AND silver jewelry! I’m all about mixing metals. 

Another thing I like about JORD is that they’ll customize the length of the watch for you so it’s ready to wear right out of the box when you receive it. It was a perfect fit right away. All I had to do was measure my wrist with the easy printout they provided.

Not only that, they also provide custom engraving! You can engrave your favorite quote, saying, or name on the back of the watch. Don’t want to do it there? No problem. You can engrave the watch box!

Giveaway

Are you excited? I am… because thanks to JORD, I’m hosting a $100 giveaway to one lucky winner for use on the JORD site! You can enter the giveaway HERE. Even if you don’t win, everyone that enters will receive a consolation code worth 10% off of your order. So what are you waiting for? Enter away!

The contest will close 05/06/2018 at 11:59pm CST. Both the $100 and the 10% off codes will expire on 06/03/2018. Good luck!

Holiday Cards with Basic Invite

October 23, 2017 by kim 1 Comment

Have you guys started working on your holiday cards and invitations yet? November is quickly approaching and before you know it, it’ll be Christmas! I’ve already started browsing designs on Basic Design even though we haven’t taken family photos yet. 

They have a ton of designs to choose from (over 250) with almost unlimited color options! You’re going to need a head start browsing their entire collection before you make your final decision. You can also instantly preview the color changes since details are everything now and days.

These were a couple of the samples that I ordered to get a feel for the invites. I always like holding the actual product to compare the difference between them all since Basic Invite has a variety of paper, envelopes, and linings. You can mix and match as your heart desires!

Personally, I can vouch for all of the different kinds of paper. There was not one sample that I was disappointed in. You can get Halloween party invitations, Thanksgiving invitations, Christmas Eve Party invitations, and general holiday party invites printed in no time.

To make it even easier, Basic Invite has an address capturing service, which collects addresses through a shared link. With that, they then offer recipient address printing at no cost on all Christmas card orders. Done and done.

Since I’m always drawn to the sparkly things, I’d recommend going for their foil holiday cards. They shimmer in every direction.

All of their envelopes are are peel and seal (no licking required!), which helps a ton when you’re sending out more than five pieces. Andddddddd…. my favorite part? They have over 40 different colored envelopes to choose from, including ones that shimmer!

Don’t hesitate to place your order ASAP! I also have a code that’ll get you 30% off your total right now: holi30
