Here’s what users say works best:
-
Use plain white toothpaste (not gel or whitening types)

Only do it at night
-
Avoid the eye area

Always moisturize after
And remember — if your skin feels irritated, STOP immediately.

This trick might not be approved by dermatologists…
But it’s getting insane results for regular people — fast.
Curious?
Try it for 7 days. Then look in the mirror.
But don’t be surprised if your friends ask what surgeon you went to.
