Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strip Deal: My Go-To Is 33% Off For Prime Day
I've tried my fair share of whitening products over the years, but few have impressed me as much as the Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strips. Before using them, I rarely saw results with other options, and my sensitive teeth would almost always ache from use. I've experienced neither issue with this enamel-safe product, so it's safe to say I'll be taking advantage of the 33% off Lumineux teeth whitening strip deal during Amazon Prime Day. The editor-approved Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strips are at their lowest price all year during Amazon ... More Prime Day. ILLUSTRATION: FORBES / PHOTO: RETAILER Not only are the Lumineux strips now a staple in my own bathroom cabinet, but they've also earned a spot in our shopping guide for the best teeth whitening kits as the top pick for sensitive teeth. They're free of peroxide, an ingredient that can irritate sensitive teeth, and instead rely on plant-based ingredients like coconut oil, lemon peel oil and dead sea salt for a gentle yet effective transformation. I've been using the whitening strips once or twice per week for several months now, and I can confidently say I've noticed a significant difference in the color of my teeth. While it's often hard to tell whether a whitening product is actually working, I've had no doubts with this formula; it's truly erased yellow hues on both my top and bottom teeth. Plus, I've experienced zero sensitivity to the strips, which means I can routinely use them without worry. The Lumineux strips don't go on sale at Amazon often (the last price drop was back in December of last year), so this is somewhat of a rare deal. In fact, this 33% discount brings them down to one of their lowest prices ever, shaking out to just $1.43 per treatment. The box contains 21 treatments, each with strips for both your top and bottom teeth, giving you a complete whitening treatment with every packet. If you also deal with sensitive teeth and have been searching for a no-fuss, gentle way to whiten them, I highly recommend picking up a box of the Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strips while they're on sale during Amazon Prime Day.

17 Beauty Prime Day Finds
40% off a full-coverage Tarte Shape Tape concealer that's waterproof and crease-proof for up to 12 hours. Its creamy formula easily blends and helps camouflage cystic acne, acne scars, relentless under-eye circles, and redness in a swipe. Promising review: "Finally! A winner! I have spent an embarrassing amount of money on trying to find a decent under-eye concealer, with the hope I could find one that didn't emphasize my fine lines. Well, I have now found the perfect concealer that gives everything one could want in an under-eye concealer. It covers better than any other I have tried. And yep, it even seems to cover the fine lines! This is the winner! I would definitely recommend." —GGPrice: $19.20 (originally $32) 33% off a box of peroxide-free Lumineux teeth whitening strips for getting those pearly whites without shelling out too much green. The sage and coconut oil formula is made to be tough on stains while being gentle on your teeth. With at least 21 treatments in each box, you're set for weeks of brightening. Promising review: "I'm LOYAL to these teeth whitening strips! I have super-sensitive hot, even regular whitening products usually leave me in pain. So I was a little hesitant to try this, but I'm really glad I did. These are the only whitening strips I've used that don't cause any sensitivity at all. No zaps of pain, no lingering discomfort. Just gradual, gentle whitening. After using these consistently, I've noticed my teeth look brighter and more even-toned without that too-white, artificial look. It's a really natural result, and I can keep using them without worrying about sensitivity flaring up." —JojoPrice: $29.99 (regularly $44.99) 25% off La Roche Posay Toleriane face moisturizer, created with ingredients like ceramide and niacinamide to help soothe, protect, and retain hydration in the skin. Promising review: "Simple moisturizer that works like a dream. This is the best moisturizer I've used thus far. It's pillowy soft, and it pairs nicely with my serums. My skin looks plump and supple — which is saying a lot because I have not been drinking enough water this week. You wouldn't be able to tell at all. So far, it wears well under makeup. It's not heavy or greasy, but it works. For reference, I have oily/combination skin. Most products aren't 'one size fits all,' but this one is as close as you can get. Give it a try if you're thinking about it." —ClaricePrice: $17.99 (regularly $23.99) 30% off the cult classic Clinique Almost Lipstick tinted lip balm. With its lightweight, slightly glossy finish, it has reached beyond "holy grail" status and truly deserves a spot in your Amazon Prime Day cart. It's made to complement every skin tone, so you can skip the guesswork and just enjoy that effortless look. Promising review: "Possibly the greatest lip color ever! The color is gorgeous! The perfect 'barely there' hint of darkness. It enhances your natural lip color and, without any cayenne pepper or crazy plumping chemicals, makes your lips look fuller naturally. Feels great, not sticky, not drying. Not too glossy. Love the size of the slim tube. Easy to pop into a small bag." —Wayne HPrice: $17.50 (originally $25; available in two shades) 22% off the viral Cremo body wash infused with Italian bergamot, vetiver, and neroli blossom, creating a scent that's luxuriously elegant without the luxe price tag. Promising review: "Elevates my shower routine — luxury scent without the luxury price. I've been using the Cremo Palo Santo body wash for a few weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed. The scent is rich and complex, creating a fragrance that's both grounding and refreshing. The formula lathers up beautifully, turning into a creamy foam that feels moisturizing without being greasy. My skin feels clean and soft afterward, not tight or dry. I appreciate that it's designed for all skin types, and I haven't experienced any irritation. What really stands out is the longevity of the scent. It lingers subtly on the skin, and I've even noticed it on my clothes the next day. It's not overpowering, just a pleasant, masculine aroma that makes me feel put together." —LisaPrice: $12.33 (originally $15.97; available in four scents) 30% off an ultrafine Laneige Neo blurring powder that absorbs oil and blurs the look of pores. It also comes in a super-handy compact complete with a mirror, making it perfect for on-the-go glam sessions! Promising review: "This is the secret for makeup in hot and humid climates! I am a sweaty person, but I also love wearing makeup regardless of the weather. While holidaying in Southeast Asia at the start of the wet season, I faced temperatures between 35 and 40 degrees Celsius (95–104 degrees Fahrenheit) with high humidity. After finishing my base makeup, I applied this powder all over. I did not use a setting spray because most break me out. Luckily, no setting spray was necessary while I was using this setting powder! It kept my foundation and cream blush from separating or becoming patchy and also kept me from being too shiny. I reapplied a couple of times per day. This is magical, and I will definitely be using it regularly during the summers in North America, too!" —Sara LimaPrice: $17.50 (originally $25) 30% off Cicapair tiger grass color correcting treatment made with a blend of tiger grass, aloe vera, and chamomile extract to smooth and hydrate your skin. You can use it to cover blemishes, neutralize redness, and protect your skin from the sun with SPF 30, and also as a makeup primer. Promising review: "Holy wow! This stuff is amazing! I wasn't sure what to expect, really, but it covers my redness better than anything I've tried. Concealer and foundation always look cakey, sit in my pores, or wear off after a few hours. This went on like a moisturizer and was still going strong after 12 hours, and it just looked like my skin without the redness. I like a natural look but have rosacea and need to cover it. This made me look like I had naturally clear skin." —Cynthia DPrice: $17.50 (originally $25+; available in two sizes) 30% off a moisturizing Mise en Scène serum ready to give your locks the intense hydration and nourishment they've probably been craving. This dreamy concoction is derived from seven oils: argan, olive, coconut, apricot, marula, jojoba, and camellia. Promising review: "The scent is nice. I'd give this 10 stars if I could. I've been using salon products for over a decade, and this is way better. And cheaper. I've even gotten compliments on how silky smooth my hair looks. I put it on while my hair is wet, then again when I style, if my hair gets frizzy from my flat iron, and to tame flyaways. It's my favorite hair product I own." —Amy WiltPrice: $14.69 (originally $20.99; available in eight formulas) 30% off Clinique High Impact mascara designed to give your lashes that wow factor — think longer, fuller, and ready to slay from morning till night. Plus, it's made to play nice with sensitive eyes or contacts. Promising reviews: "This mascara is really great! It goes on easy. It doesn't clump, and it comes off easier than any other mascara I have owned. You don't even need a special remover to take it off." —BAG-SHG"Recommended to me by someone with sensitive eyes who saw me reacting to another mascara. This has been a game changer. No more tearing eyes from fumes and irritants. Black honey is a great color, too!" —RHHPrice: $9.10+ (originally $13+; available in two sizes) 35% off Fwee 3D moisturizing gloss that smooths over fine lines, wrinkles, and dry spots, leaving your lips with a high-shine, glazed look. This formula features two pigment options so you can customize your look with a subtle, sheer tint with 30% pigment or dial it up with 70% pigment for a bold, vivid pop of color. Promising reviews: "This lip gloss glides on so well! It has a nice pigment, and I love that there are the 30% and 70%, which cater to different preferences. I got three of the 30% and one of the 70% because I like a more natural look. The packaging is also really cute! Korean lippies are the best!" —Sunny"Feels like butter spun into silk on your lips. I have 70% currant, and I love it so much. I will be purchasing more shades! 😍" —KarliPrice: $11.05 (originally $17; available in 17 colors) 20% off Sunday Riley Good Genes lactic acid treatment, here to help target discoloration and dark spots with refreshing and toning licorice root and lemongrass, making your skin look as if it's got that radiant glow. Apply one to two pumps to clean, dry skin (day or night) as a leave-on treatment. If you have sensitive skin, you can use as a mask and leave on for just 15 minutes before rinsing review: "Instant brighter, lifted, de-puffed look!! I AM OBSESSED! I'm 45 years old, and I've been using this for three years now. I've tried so many different eye creams, and this is by far the absolute best! I LOVE how it gives you an instantly brighter look! I'm not joking when I tell you I love this stuff. I have the travel size in my purse so I can dab it on whenever I want, LOL. Sunday Riley products are amazing!" —Mandy AndersonPrice: $59.59 (regularly $75) 30% off Beekman 1802 mushroom goat milk eye cream, formulated with 5% hexapeptide, meant to ease muscle contractions in order to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This might have everyone thinking you've been getting your beauty sleep. Promising review: "My eye area is sensitive to everything. I have tried so many eye products, and nothing has worked! All other products cause me to have itchy, watery eyes if they get anywhere near my eyes. Anti-wrinkle products usually cause my eyes to water the most. This cream doesn't make my eyes itchy or watery at all, and it helps minimize my wrinkles! I have been using it for over a year now and love it. All the Beekman products I have used (which is almost all of them) are amazing! If you're a super-sensitive-skin girl like me, buy this. You won't regret it!" —Sarah ReavesPrice: $36.40 (originally $52) 30% off SexyHair Big Spray & Play volumizing hairspray with stay-put hold that's still flexible enough so you don't hear that cringeworthy crunch every time you move. Promising review: "This works great for me whenever I get my hair straight or a blowout. It doesn't leave my hair crunchy or anything after I use it, and it smells nice. Good for keeping my hair in check in humidity." —AshPrice: $16.07 (originally $22.95) 25% off some fragrance-free Avène thermal spring water whenever you feel that your skin needs calming or a quick pick-me-up. It's also approved by the National Eczema Association. Promising reviews: "This is a summer must-have. At the lake, at home in front of a fan, or if you are a woman of a certain age with night sweats — this is a can of instant refreshing relief from heat, sweating, and sunburns." —Jennifer"I have dry, sensitive skin, and I saw this product recommended by a reputable influencer. I didn't really expect that it would be anything special, but I was willing to give it a try. I LOVE it! The spray pattern is perfect (light and well distributed), the size of the product is substantial, and the variety of uses makes it more than a single-purpose product. I spray it on immediately before I moisturize. My skin looks much calmer. I have rosacea, and this has helped. And it's from France, so of course it feels like a very elegant addition to my skincare routine." —PepeLaPuePrice: $14.25 (originally $19) 30% off a long-lasting Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray — a favorite among beauty enthusiasts because it keeps your glam on lock while you're out living your best life. It's waterproof, smudge-proof, and transfer-resistant, lasting up to 16 hours. Plus, it helps keep your skin feeling cooler and controls shine throughout the day. Promising review: " you haven't tried this, you are seriously missing out! This stuff is hands-down the BEST makeup setting spray I've ever used — and I've tried a lot. When I tell you it sets your makeup, I mean it LOCKS it in like a dream. My makeup doesn't just stay, it stays flawlessly — as if I just finished applying it, even hours (and hours!) later. This is a holy grail product. Believe the hype. I never travel without it, and I honestly can't imagine doing my makeup without finishing with this spray. 10/10, highly recommend!!" —Mark & NykeaPrice: $25.20 (originally $36; available in two sizes) 25% off a refreshing Youth to the People superfruit facial cleanser that's packed with enzymes like papaya and ginger root, plus exfoliating acids AHA and BHA. Meaning it tackles rough skin and clogged pores to help encourage a bright, even complexion. A little dollop goes a long way for a rich lather. Promising review: "Love this product so, so much. I have sensitive skin and am very wary about trying new things, but this face wash is incredible. Will be my go-to from now on. My acne scars have faded, and my skin texture is evening out. You only need about a half pump and it suds up like wild. I can tell, too, that this bottle is going to last me a LONG time. Worth every cent." —Justice TPrice: $29.25 (originally $39) 15% off a PMD personal microdermabrasion kit you can use on your face and body so you can get that fresh-from-the-med-spa glow without even stepping out of your PJs. This nifty little tool uses discs with aluminum oxide crystals to gently exfoliate dead skin cells while vacuuming out gunk from your pores. There is a range of discs to customize your treatment to your skin. You can choose among ultrasensitive, very sensitive, sensitive, and review: "As an aesthetician, I would recommend this product! I was quite skeptical when buying this, but I wanted to give it a try. I figured it would not give a real exfoliation like the machines I use; I figured it would be way too weak to even make a difference. I WAS WAY WRONG and happily shocked. I loved this machine we had, which cost over $10,000, which essentially did the same thing as this device." —JenniferPrice: $95.40 (originally $111.99)

National Advertising Division Recommends Oral Essentials Discontinue 'Microbiome Safe' Claim for Lumineux Mouthwash
New York, NY , April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a Fast-Track SWIFT challenge brought by competitor GuruNanda, LLC, BBB National Programs' National Advertising Division recommended that Oral Essentials, Inc. discontinue the claim that its Lumineux mouthwash products are 'Microbiome Safe.' Fast-Track SWIFT is an expedited challenge process designed for single-issue advertising cases brought to the National Advertising Division (NAD). To back its 'microbiome safe' claim, Oral Essentials submitted an in vitro study examining the effect of four mouthwash variants on five prominent species of bacteria linked to plaque, gingivitis, and cavities. The study reported the use of mouthwash did not decrease the population of any of the five strains of bacteria. NAD found the in vitro study was not a good fit to support the challenged claim. In this study, only five out of the numerous species of bacteria in the mouth were tested, which is insufficient to support a claim that the product is safe for the entire microbiome. NAD also questioned the in vitro study's real-world relevance to consumer use and noted that although the study concluded that there was '[n]o decrease' for every strain of bacteria tested, the numbers reveal that some strains did see a decrease in population. NAD therefore concluded that Oral Essentials has not met its burden of providing a reasonable basis for the claim that its mouthwash products are 'Microbiome Safe' and recommended the challenged claim be discontinued. In its advertiser statement, Oral Essentials stated, 'As a strong supporter of NAD, Oral Essentials will follow NAD's recommendations.'
