Hi everyone!!
Hope you're well, sorry for being a bit quiet recently, had a busy weekend so I'm slowly trying to get back into the swing of things!
Anyway, today's first product review is on Pearl Drops Beauty Sleep.
I picked this up a few weeks ago in my local Boots for the grand total of £3.49, what intrigued me is that this isn't a toothpaste but a treatment to whiten teeth while protecting gums, now usually, most whitening products seem to neglect gums, after all what's the point in having beautiful pearly whites and unsightly gums?
Pearl Drops are marketing this as a serum for teeth, which I thought was novel seeing as though there's a pretty big hype with facial serums in the world of beauty at present.
Let me start of by saying that I really like the packaging! It reminds me a little bit of a mascara box and is one of my favourite colours, purple!
And here's the product itself! It comes in a white squeezy tube with a twist off lid, the packaging reminds me of a lip gloss!
The actual serum is an opaque white gel which contains, active oxygen, Pearl Drops patented Liquid Calcium, Vitamin E and Mint oils.
The product is also dead easy to use, which is good, usually by night time I'm absolutely knackered and can't be doing with anything fiddly or time consuming!
According to the instructions you apply a pea sized amount of the serum and using your finger, rub onto the teeth and gums after brushing your teeth, the idea being that the serum will work its magic overnight, hence the beauty sleep!
As an afterthought they mention that ideally, the serum needs to be left on teeth for at least 30 minutes, so I suppose you could even use it in a morning before you leave the house!
Anyone who's used the product before will know what I mean when I say that it has the typical Pearl Drops texture, the mint oils make it smell absolutely lush as well! (Although it does remind me of the Sensodyne toothpaste I'm currently using too!)
The first time I used it, my mouth did feel a bit odd, it felt like there was some kind of film over my teeth and gums but by the next morning this feeling had completely gone, in fact my teeth felt unbelievably smooth, like that feeling you get when you've just left the Dentist!
There isn't really an indication of how long you should use the product for but I guess you can use it for as long as you like, the serum is also supposed to last for at least a month, I've been using it for about 2 weeks now and it still seems like there's a good deal left in the tube!
Now, in an attempt to answer the most important question, does this product actually work?
And the answer is, yes it does!
I've got to be honest and admit that I do use whitening toothpaste anyway, my teeth are straight thanks to wearing braces as a teen and I love the thought of having a white shiny smile, unfortunately the proper teeth whitening dentist type treatments are a little bit out of my budget so I'm willing to try pretty much anything that promises to give me lovely sparkly teeth!
The image above shows my teeth before I started using Pearl Drops Beauty Sleep, as you can see they're not 'Hollywood White' but they're not exactly badly discoloured either!
This is after using Pearl Drops Beauty Sleep after 2 weeks, and I think there is definitely a visible improvement in whiteness!
I have regular check ups with my dentist and never seem to have any gum problems so I can't comment on how effective it is at nourishing the gums but I've not had any reactions or noticed any problems occurring so it must be doing something!
For under £5 its definitely worth a go and I'd happily recommend it to anyone!
Has anyone else used this recently or can recommend any other good whitening products?

Found your blog with google because I was looking for a review on this product and it seems like a great product, definitely going to try this!
ReplyDeleteI have this on my teeth at the minute and it feels lovely already! V fresh haha I'm curious to see if it works as my poor teeth have been looking rather tea-stained lately!
ReplyDeleteGreat review! I always use strips and haven’t got around to try night treatments and it feels easier to use a 30 min treatment than having something on the whole night. Do you feel it is convenient?
ReplyDeleteNice review :) I hope you get lots of success with your product, I have gotten totally hooked on Stella white pen. it’s a peroxide free product and really easy to use :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comments :)
ReplyDeleteI do use pearl drops and other whitening toothpastes anyway but I did just want a little something extra. I've used the crest whitening strips previously and found that while they were good they did give me some issues with sensitivity. I do recommend the Beauty Sleep though, I think as long as its being used in conjunction with other whitening products it works wonders x
I don t have the time at the moment to fully read your site but I have bookmarked it and also add your RSS feeds. I will be back in a day or two. thanks for a great site.
