truly radiant.

[This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Arm & Hammer Truly Radiant. all opinions are 100% mine.]

i believe that a smile is the key to confidence.

when you smile, you feel good, you look good, and you exude radiance. and nothing diminishes that radiance more than unhealthy stained teeth.

as a coffee and red wine drinker, i'm always worried about [the potential discoloration of] my teeth. i've been wanting to try a teeth whitening system but was always turned off by the fuss with trays, strips, and pens or brushes, plus the waiting time with the trays in your mouth or strips on your teeth.

Arm & Hammer's Truly Radiant products clean, strengthen, and whiten your teeth for a more radiant smile...and it's as simple as brushing your teeth. (we do this anyways!)

with pure Arm & Hammer baking soda, active calcium, fluoride, and peroxide, Truly Radiant toothpaste is clinically proven to beautify your teeth. in addition to whitening, it repairs tooth enamel and restores gloss and luster in just five days [when used as directed].

simple as 1-2-3:

apply Truly Radiant toothpaste to your tooth brush.

add an equal amount of Truly Radiant Whitening Booster.

brush as normal.

did you know Arm & Hammer Spinbrushes remove 100% more plaque than a manual toothbrush?

my favorite benefit of Truly Radiant toothpaste is that it smooths surface imperfections while restoring shine. as i sit here typing, i'm running my tongue along my front teeth and they are so smooth! they feel glossy and look shiny, too. i just took this picture at my desk, and you can still see shine even after breakfast and lunch.

foxy brown wants in on this.

she's feeling radiant because she just had a bath!

in addition to a great smile, here are some other ways i live radiantly every day:

1) relax and unwind with friends. often.

2) don't sweat the small stuff.

3) have fun with the minis.

4) exercise.

5) maintain a healthy diet.

6) try new things.

7) volunteer. help others. put others first.

do you experience red nose, watery eyes, and puffiness?

like many others, you may be experiencing symptoms of allergies.

as an adult, i have become prone to allergies and do experience all three of these symptoms. luckily, my occasional allergies are manageable. my niece, on the other hand, is constantly sniffling, sneezing, and walking around miserably with a box of kleenex.

ZYRTEC is the #1 allergist recommended OTC brand that provides fast relief for those suffering from these allergy symptoms. Zyrtec helps you feel better, and Allergy Face beauty tips will help you look better. the only thing worse that feeling bad is feeling like you look bad as well. read these facts, and you'll find that 66% of women feel unattractive because

of their allergy face.

here are tips and products that help my allergy face:

1) moisturize. hydrating your skin helps the puffiness; i use a heavy cream at night to minimize puffiness in the morning.

2) waterproof your makeup. when dealing with watery eyes, i waterproof my mascara with anastasia's lash genius. sephora's pitch black eyeliner also has great staying power.

3) highlight. i use white eyeliner to highlight features [like the brow bone] and conceal red areas [under the eye and around the nose]. just draw and blend.
