white-teeth-at-home


From Marie Claire


Beauty vloggers are full-service these days. They're not just revealing the secrets behind the perfect highlight or how to sandbag your undereye circles into oblivion, but also how to whiten your teeth.


Now it's no secret that there are a slew of off-kilter ways of going about it (I once turned my teeth black for the cause), but the pearly-white-yielding concoction that Desi blogger Farah Dhukai uses is slightly less jarring and just as effective for a whiter smile within minutes. She simply combines one tablespoon of coconut oil with a pinch of turmeric to create a paste, brushes her teeth with the blend, lets it sit on her teeth for five minutes, then rinses it off for an instantly brighter grin. But be forewarned, this method will turn your toothbrush yellow.


Here's the thing, you won't see a drastic difference the first time you try it. The idea is that if you get into the habit of doing this a few times a week, it will-like white strips-work gradually over time. This is because turmeric, an ancient medicinal herb, helps removes plaque (some that's not evident to the naked eye), which causes discoloration. But as opposed to harsh bleaches you'll find in over-the-counter treatments, its natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties make it super healthy for your oral health, much like it isfor the skin. In fact, research has found that it can help prevent dental disease.


This D.I.Y.'s other ingredient-coconut oil-works similarly to wash out stains. Just ask Kylie Jenner, who loves oil pulling (swashing around the natural extract in your mouth for several minutes) to achieve pure-white flash of teeth behind her fish gape. Convinced?
