Lush Review: Toothy Tabs

Since I now live in Norwich, there's a Lush store really close to where I live.  I've really loved every single Lush product I've ever tried and I've definitely tried my fair few! So on Saturday when I was shopping with my boyfriend, we popped into Lush.

These toothy tabs immediately caught my eye.  As most of you probably are, I'm always on the lookout for anything that'll make my teeth noticeably whiter so at £2.50 for a box of tabs which are used instead of using your daily tube of toothpaste it'd be rude not to give them a little try!

Lush say: Sparkle Toothy Tab is a dose of sweet vanilla flavour and makes for a very effective palate cleanser. The black pepper gives a radiating warmth after you’ve finished brushing.


Makes teeth sparkle! 

If you want people to stop you in the street when they spot your pearly whites, use Sparkle! Lemon peel powder and Sicilian lemon oil will make your teeth sparkle brightly. Every smile should be so perfect.

I'm sure you'll agree when I say that the tab doesn't look the most appetising thing in the world.  I did smell the tab first which was probably the wrong thing to do as all I could smell was an overwhelming pepper flavour.

The instructions are to nibble a tab between your front teeth, basically crumble it up a little bit. Wet your toothbrush, start brushing and the tab will foam up and leave you with sparkly gnashers! I wasn't expecting the sparkle straight away though, I knew it'd take some time.

When brushing my teeth I was actually heaving at the taste. It was the most horrendous taste I've ever had to endure in my whole entire life. So much for a "sweet vanilla scent", my mouth was practically on fire afterwards from a pepper overload! If you can brush your teeth more than once with these then I take my hat off to you. I will never ever use these again!  

I much prefer to have a really minty taste in my mouth after brushing my teeth anyway because it just makes it that much fresher for you.  I couldn't tell the difference after one brush, my teeth weren't sparkly but as I said, it would take time for that to happen.  There are another 5 flavours in the Toothy Tabs range but I just couldn't bring myself to ever buy a packet again.

Have you tried these? Will you try them?

Some of my favourite bloggers...

You know those blogs that just have the ability to make you want to read them constantly, all day everyday? Well these are some of my favourites. I've decided that i'm only going to include lesser known blogs rather than the established ones. Each of these blogs have followers less than 300 but are all equally as amazing, for me, as blogs with 5000 followers.

So, here are my favourites in no particular order! :)

Kathy's blog mostly consists of fashion with the cheeky beauty post chucked in every now and then. I just really love reading through her outfit of the day posts, her style is gorgeous and she's amazingly pretty! I don't think I'll ever get bored of her blog.

I love the hauls on Emily's blog! I often find myself lusting after things she's bought and she manages to find the most amazing bargains which makes me a little bit jealous but most of the time I just copy ;) She also does reviews and the occasional outfit and face of the days. Definitely worth a read.

I'm absolutely loving Tamsin's Face of the Day post's at the moment. She's totally flawless and her eyelashes make me dribble, they're so long! Tamsin's blog is a mish mash of beauty and fashion and is always really enjoyable to read.

I've been a massive fan of Samantha's blog ever since I started blogging. We started blogging around the same time and I've just always read her blog religiously. I like how she includes personal posts as well as beauty and fashion posts because I find you get to know her really well. She also rocks pink lipstick amazingly well!

Lorna is one of my real life friends! :) I'm not including her just because of that though. I love her writing style, her posts always manage to make me laugh! Her blog is mainly beauty posts and her reviews are always completely helpful. 

Are you already following these lovely blogs? Are you going to give them a little read now?! :)
