When it comes to the kissability factor on Valentine’s Day, we all want 5 stars. So here are my top 5 tips for upping the glamour factor on February 14th.

Whether it’s a great first impression you want to make or you want to get up close and personal, there’s nothing more powerful than a beautiful white smile and fresh breath. So my first tip is, make sure your teeth are shiny and white. I’ve discovered a great way to do this at home, with the latest edition of Oral B’s 3D White collection. The new toothpaste and whitening booster kit includes a new toothbrush, and 3 day’s worth of white strips.

While there isn’t long to go until Valentines Day, don’t worry, because you’ll get visible results in just one day. The luxe glamorous white toothpaste will remove up to 90% of surface stains on tooth enamel within 5 days.

Okay, so now you’ve got those pearlies bright and shiny, keep them that way. Before you apply your lipstick, pop on a touch of lip primer – this means the colour will stay put where you put it, and not have it transfer to your teeth.

Next, every celebrity makeup artist knows, a blue-based red lipstick makes teeth look whiter. It’s an insider trick for all the most important occasions including those big screen kisses. Use this colour secret to up the ante. 

Then, increase the shine factor with a touch of lip gloss. Reflective properties will add even more sparkle to your smile.

Finally, to make your bright smile and fresh breath last all evening long, put a toothbrush and toothpaste in your clutch for after dinner freshness. 

So there you have it, with these 5 easy steps, you’re up for the most romantic Valentine’s Day, and the perhaps most memorable kiss ever.
