Coffee addict? We hear you. But while your tastebuds will thank you for the multiple caffeine hit, your teeth likely won't. Whether it's a coffee addiction or a predilection for red wine (that's everybody then, right?), your teeth face multiple staining possibilities every day. You want to look as good as possible for those Zoom parties and work conference calls. But, don't worry, if you can't get to your dentist to have a teeth mould and hydrogen peroxide gel set created, there are ways you can use teeth whitening gels at home. While these may not be quite as effective as a dentist-approved version, they will still be effective at lightening you teeth to a degree. Clare Jayson, founder of Billion Dollar Smile, explains: "Whitening gels work when the active ingredients release oxygen molecules, dissolving stains to remove discolouration. "In recent years, the development of non-hydrogen peroxide active ingredients has greatly improved the teeth whitening products that are … [Read more...] about Best teeth whitening gels for 2021 that will help you get a bright white smile

High street favourites that won’t re-open in April as Covid closes iconic chains forever
While there's light at the end of the tunnel for many British businesses after months of lockdown, there's some familiar favourites that will never return to the High Street. Many businesses have been told they could reopen on April 12 if the government reaches its Covid vaccination target, as part of Boris Johnson's plan to get the country out of restrictions. Hairdressers, salons, clothing outlets and many small, local businesses such as florists will be able to trade again after more than three months of closures. But for many towns and communities, the high street will never be the same again as one by one big chains that have been part of Britain's culture have fallen under the pressure of the pandemic. Some struggling brands will return to the high street but others will now operate online-only. Paperchase is closing 27 stores while Jaeger, John Lewis, Edinburgh Woollen Mill, Bonmarché, Hays Travel and Prezzo will reduce their store counts.

‘Boris Johnson’s response to unemployment crisis is criminally inadequate’
Soaring unemployment is Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak refusing to inoculate communities against miserable joblessness. Enthusiastic Government propaganda about a vaccine bounce back ignores lengthening dole queues officially forecast to stretch to 2.6million in a return to the misery of Margaret Thatcher and John Major. Others predict a total already up to 1.72m will climb even higher, particularly if the job-saving furlough scheme isn’t extended beyond the end of April when some lockdown restrictions will remain in place. Updated unemployment figures will be released by the Office for Budget Responsibility with next month’s Budget yet the Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer brushing over lost livelihoods in their recovery propaganda is telling. Joblessness is a price that Tory Governments traditionally accept is worth paying by other people, twisting the knife by goading those in work to resent the workless relying on benefits to survive. Gordon Brown, a Labour … [Read more...] about ‘Boris Johnson’s response to unemployment crisis is criminally inadequate’
