    I would rather have stained, yellowing teeth...said absolutely no one ever.

    But going to the dentist and enduring hours in the chair only to leave with sore and sensitive teeth for days afterwards feels like an unfair trade for some pearly white teeth.

    Well never fear, thanks to Pearlii's newly launched Teeth Whitening Kit, it's never been easier to brighten stained, yellowing teeth from the comfort of your sofa.

    No pain or sensitivity and compliance with the Australian Dental Association's safety standards sounds pretty freaking good to me. Lord knows I don't trust a lot of the teeth whitening kits I've seen on the 'gram. 

    It has also literally never been easier to look good and do good at the same time.

    Simply by purchasing a teeth whitening kit, you're helping a child in need secure a year's supply of toothbrushes and toothpaste. This is all courtesy of Pearlii's broader mission to improve oral health globally, and their partnership with charity The Balibó House where each and every sale secures another child's supply of oral hygiene essentials.

    So, how does this gentle but effective whitening kit work you ask?

    The whitening kit includes everything you need — including an LED light mouth tray, three whitening gel syringes, three detachable syringe heads, adapters for both Android and Apple phones and an instruction manual — and there are only three steps to the whitening process.

    Simply start by squeezing the whitening gel onto the mouth tray, plugging the whitening light into your phone and finally, popping the tray in your mouth for 12 minutes.

    Once those minutes are up, rinse everything off and expect to see whiter teeth for the next 2–3 months.

    You're done! Go forth and dazzle the world with your new gleaming pearly whites.
