We all want white teeth, but taking the task into your own hands with at-home bleaching kits can cause sensitivity if you don't follow the directions to a T. Your discomfort will likely last for only a day or two, but is a sign that you are overexposing your teeth to bleach.
The bleach opens the pores (or tubules) in your tooth enamel so that it can remove stains. This stimulates the nerves, which can be painful, particularly if you exceed the time noted on the packaging or if you bleach too often. It takes a few days for your saliva to remineralize your teeth and make the pain go away.
To limit your sensitive reaction, brush your teeth with a toothpaste that includes fluoride and potassium before and after bleaching, and follow up with a mouthwash that has calcium as an active ingredient, which helps to harden weak enamel. Also, avoid acidic drinks like soda, which can wear away your enamel.
For a longer-lasting whitening treatment, consider an in-office laser- or light-assisted bleaching procedure with your dentist. You'll be done in an hour and the results last six months to two years.

I feel like a Kardashian today.... Kristina Kardashian has a ring to it. LOL ! Yeah right! I wish!!!!
TREND: Red skinny jeans
WHO'S WEARING IT: Judy Greer, Shenae Grimes (Black Orchid), Nicky Hilton (J Brand) and Jessica Alba (Joe's Jeans)
HOW TO WEAR IT: What's black, white and red all over? If you answered a really cheesy joke or the hottest trend in Hollywood right now, you'd be right! Celebs keep stepping out in red skinny jeans, and we can't blame them—it's a nice alternative to the same ol' dark denim. Wear with a tee and leather for a rocker vibe, whether it's a blunt one like Shenae's The Clash top or subtle like Jessica's blazer-and-booties combo. If you're not feeling the need to pay homage to CBGB, pair with a structured two-toned jacket like Nicky or use red as your neutral, like Judy did by mixing it with a leopard top. Make the bold denim the focal point by avoiding other brights—especially more red!—and teaming it with tan, black and white accents to pull the look together. Trendy, cute and in the Valentine Day's spirit? Now that we can get behind.

With the number of hair color changes she’s made lately, Katy Perry could practically create her own line of dyes. But the “California Gurl” has different plans: on the tail of her second fragrance release, the singer is launching a line of false lashes, Katy Perry by Eylure.
“I have worn Eylure lashes all the way through my tour and really loved them,” Perry says in a statement. “When it came to having a range of my own, I wanted everyone to have a great experience with my lashes. Eylure was really the best choice for me to work with.”
According to a release, Perry was quite hands-on in the development of the lashes, as well as the packaging, which features a ’40s-style ice cream parlor logo, in keeping with the sweet theme of her California Dreams tour.
The four lash varieties include “Sweetie Pie,” dainty, natural lashes; “Oh, Honey,” a fuller set; “Cool Kitty,” shorter and suitable for daytime; and “Oh, My,” bold, attention-grabbing lashes. “This style is full of texture, but lightweight and very wearable,” Perry says of the latter, based on Eylure’s double lashes. “The perfect accessory for your eyes.”
Perry’s lashes hit ULTA stores and ulta.com on Valentines Day, and retail for $6.99 per set. Tell us: Would you try Perry-branded false lashes?
I wanna learn .... and it is taking me forever!!!
But I'm gunna keep trying!!

Katy Perry Eyelashes Created by Eylure in Oh My!

Katy Perry eyelashes are here! We don't mean her actual eyelashes are hanging out on our desk or anything (that would be odd), but her new faux lashes created by Eylure are finally available for peeping. The line doesn't officially go on sale at Ulta stores until Valentine's Day, but In Style got an exclusive first look at the products. When we first heard about the line, we imagined the lashes would be a cross between neon glitter diva and sultry pinup, but boy, were we wrong! There isn't a trace of sparkle or wild tint (not even to match her new blue 'do); in fact, the lashes are actually quite tame and functional. They're perfect for everyday wear or for vamping it up on a night out. What's even better, Miss Perry gave In Style her tips on how to wear them.
The Oh My! lashes (above) may appear thick and dramatic, but Perry says they're full of texture and "very lightweight." We'd definitely deem these to be in the going-out category, as they're juuuust dramatic enough yet not too crazy that our date would want to escape our raccoon-like gaze. We also really like the Oh, Honey! lashes, and so does Katy. "I love the vintage flick at the corners that this lash gives me!" Perry said. "They're full, fun, and great for both daytime and evening wear." See? Totally versatile! Be sure to check out Sweetie Pie, offering a more natural look for "anyone who wants to try false lashes for the first time," Katy says. Or go for the Cool Kitty variety for a smokey-eye feel that Katy says are her favorite. *Purr*
