Facebook vanity; try the 'whiten it' app

Wednesday, August 26, 2009

You know the drill. When it comes to creating a Facebook photo album it's the more flattering pics that make the cut and if an unfortunate shot is tagged (heaven forbid) by a so-called "friend", it's fastest fingers first to that "untag" button.

Okay, perhaps this is a tactic for the more vanity-minded. But for those of us who fit this mould, you may be interested to hear that we've come across a great way to enhance your profile pics just that little bit more. Yes, you can now have a dazzling set of pearly whites thanks to the "Whiten-It!" app from Crest.

We've tried it out and have to say not only is if fun to play around with (there's nothing like a little procrastination in the workplace) but the results are, well, vaguely convincing. It's a simple case of selecting a snap on your Facebook page, tracing the outline of your teeth (it's much easier than it sounds; there's no degree in Photoshop required) and then picking out your chosen shade.

Needless to say we opted for the blinding white, get-your-shades-on-to-look-at-me option. It didn't take long for the "my my, your teeth are white" comments to roll in. Eat your heart out, Mr Cruise.

Try it out for yourself and let us know your thoughts!

Now - who will I choose to blind? Maybe a few extra teeth in my gob might help first LOL. Dont know if that bright white would be believable though
