Ingredients are Important!
Healthy-looking skin starts with products that are formulated with clean, effective, organic ingredients that hydrate, refresh & rejuvenate. The ingredients in organic beauty products set them apart from cheaper drugstore counterparts. *High concentrations of quality active ingredients vs inactive cheap fillers or harmful chemicals. *Quality active ingredients are listed first as ingredients are always listed in descending order, starting with the largest amount. *Higher concentration of active ingredients means less product is needed for each use. *Organic, clean products without chemical preservatives have an earlier expiration date. A long shelf life usually indicates fillers and harsh chemical preservatives.

Increase the Power of Your Smile
With handshakes and hugs off limits, increase the power of your smile! Good oral hygiene is key to a smart smile, but sometimes it’s not enough to create the brilliance you desire. Now is the time to consider teeth whitening. Whitening uses peroxide to break down stains over time. The higher the concentration, the less time and applications are needed. A professional strength product applied for 5-10 days is ideal for most smiles and causes limited sensitivity. To find the right product for you and for helpful oral hygiene tips contact Wandering Pearl Dental Hygiene or visit our social media!
