Give Your Smile An Illusion Of Whiter Teeth

As we go through our daily routines of eating and drinking, we subject our teeth to a daily dose of chromogen (colour agents) and is coloration. This gradual process often goes unnoticed until we suddenly realise that our smiles can looked much better. These days, when tooth appearance is discussed, whiteness becomes the most characteristic subject that comes to mind. White smiles now symbolise youthfulness and are seen as the ultimate representation of health and beauty, so it comes as no surprise that teeth whitening is now a sought-after trend that will definitely set you back thousands of naira. Whiteness is associated with brightness, attractiveness, success, and reliability, making it highly sought-after. For those who don’t want to go down the line of artificial teeth whitening, it is crucial to be mindful of our habits and take proactive measures to prevent or minimise discoloration. By doing so, we can continue to maintain the radiance and aesthetic appeal of our smiles, and if you are a woman like me, lipstick can also come to your rescue. How might you ask? Well, use these shades, and your teeth will sparkle all day and night. 

WINE OR PLUM

The colour plum, which is a subdued purple, contrasts with yellow on the colour wheel, making it an ideal colour of lipstick to wear to create the illusion of whiter teeth. Plum is a mysterious and contemporary colour and is the perfect shade to not just brighten your smile but add a stylish twist to any outfit. It’s very lovely on tanned or matte skin, and it’s the ideal colour for sunny days.

RED LIPSTICK WITH BLUISH UNDERTONE

Red lipstick, the quintessential Parisian accessory, may work wonders for your smile. Select bluish undertones; garnet, carmine, or “crushed strawberry” are good colours because blue is opposing to yellow on the colour wheel. Conversely, stay away from reds with warm undertones, as they will highlight the enamel’s subtle yellow tones.

PALE PINK

Pale pink, like red with blue undertones, creates the illusion of whiter teeth because of its cool undertones that make the face look very soft. A flawless grin requires “nymph’s thigh,” or sugared pink, ideally matte to soften the subtleties of the enamel.
