Disclosure: I received a Target gift card to purchase LISTERINE® Brand products from Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Products Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc. and The Motherhood as part of my participation in the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
I can’t believe the Listerine Challenge is already over. It has been a bumpy 3 weeks with swine flu, pink eye, and colds all hitting my house. I’m happy to report though that I successfully completed the challenge!
My teeth and my smile feel great! Let me tell you some of the things I’ve noticed over the 21 days.
- My teeth are a little whiter thanks to the Listerine Whitening Toothpaste
- My gums are much less sensitive. They used to bleed a bit when I flossed, but not anymore.
- I actually like using mouthwash now!
- Brushing, flossing, and rinsing after dinner has helped curb my desire to snack in the evenings.
- Even when you feel like absolute crud, having a fresh and clean mouth can really help you feel human again.
- My smile comes a little easier. Now that I’m more confident that my teeth look great and my breath is fresh, it’s easy to smile at everyone.
My Reach Access Flosser is my other favorite take away from this challenge. I always had a hard time flossing in the back, even with those little floss picks. It goes back to my sensitive gag reflex. Sticking my fingers that far into my mouth just really makes me gag. Problem solved with the Access Flosser. It gets the very back teeth so easily. In fact, I’m excited for my next dentist appointment. I think they will be happily surprised with my progress.
The challenge was only for 21 days, but I have no plans of stopping now. I’m excited that my whole family got involved too. Do you remember how I told you about the “Swish Selfie”? Here’s a recap, if you go to the Listerine Facebook page and post a selfie of you swishing some mouthwash, they will donate $5 to help underprivileged children get healthcare. So easy and such a worthwhile cause. Here is my son with his swish selfie.
What about you? Did you join the challenge? My official challenge might be over, but you can start at any time. Leave me a comment if you participated or plan to. I’d be happy to cheer you on!
I want to take this challenge! I love how fresh and clean Listerine make your mouth feel!
We have used Listerine for years. Love how it makes my mouth feel.
Listerine is a brand I really trust and it is the only mouth wash we use at the house.
My husband has a Ph imbalance in his mouth, Listerine is the ONLY mouthwash he would use.
Oh awesome, we use Listerine mouthwash but never the toothpaste — I’m going to pick up a tube and try!
