Beauty Solutions: How to Buy Teeth Whiteners
Want a healthy, bright smile? Thanks to a bounty of at-home whiteners
TYPE: At home tooth whiteners
EFFICIENCY: The best brightening and stain-erasing systems are ones with a high concentration of peroxide. You'll get the whitest smile from a tray system, since it protects saliva from seeping onto your teeth and keeps the bleach from losing potency. Strips are a close second, because the dose of peroxide is very high, but be wary of the strips slipping and sliding off teeth. Finally, paint on brushes has the least amount of peroxide, but gives lightening quick whitening, good for rubbing out red wine or coffee stains.
CONVENIENCE: Deciding which whitening system works for you depends on your lifestyle. Always on-the-go? Pick a pen. Have an hour? Strips are a good choice, because they're used for half-hour intervals twice a day, over a week, and can be worn easily while watching TV or taking a shower. A tray system requires the most time, such as a few hours a day, sometimes overnight, during a two week period.
MAINTENANCE: Once you get a whiter, brighter smile
, you'll want to keep it that way. Look for daily mouthwashes, toothpastes, flosses and touch-up whiteners
with mild bleaching agents and abrasives that help rinse away stains from food, coffee, tea, wine or cola and prevent yellowing.

Beauty Solutions: How to Buy Facial Cleanser
You know the drill: Wash your face when you wake, and then again, before you turn in. So it's no surprise a face cleanser
Skin Type: To pick the proper cleanser
Formula: Cleansers come in a variety of different formulas like a moisturizing milk, gel, foaming wash, bar, scrub, mousse and cream. It's usually a personal preference, though most formulas are specific to skin type, i.e. a cream base is more moisturizing
, while a gel helps wash away oil.
Ingredients: It depends on skin type, but a surfactant or cleansing agent will top the ingredient list, along with moisturizers
, botanicals, extracts, anti-agers or anti-bacterials. If you're skin is sensitive, you'll want to make sure the formula is fragrance free, since fragrance is a known irritant.
Results: Keeping skin type in mind, seek out a face cleanser that has benefits. For instance, if you have dry skin, you'll want a moisturizing
wash that won't strip skin of its natural oils.
