Take Action for August Transition
As summer comes to an end we start to plan for fall, make sure to take care of you during these transition months. Whether you are updating your wardrobe, body or routine, stay healthy and smile!
1. 
Hydrate Yourself
August is National Water Quality Month, which is the perfect time to rethink your water consumption habits. There is barely enough time in the day to fulfill the eight-glass quota, so make yourself an easy schedule. Drink one or two glasses upon waking, one after brushing your teeth, with meals, before and after your daily workout, and at bedtime. Make time for simple things that are important to your health!
2. Summer Sore Spots
Do you know how to outsmart a tick or treat poison ivy? It’s easy to misread or forget how to treat those familiar troubles. Read up on specific summer ailments and how to deal with them before vacation or a day outside – that way, you can keep everyone safe and smiling!
3. Cool Off at the Movies!
Can’t stand the heat? Head to the movies! Seeing a family movie together is a great way to stay cool and together this month. Just make sure to pay attention to your popcorn – uncooked kernels are easily missed and can crack and damage your teeth.
4. Results in a Flash
Heading to a summer wedding, family vacation or weekend getaway? Good thing there’s Luster 1-Hour White! You can get up to six shades whiter in just one hour – with zero tooth sensitivity. No matter where you’re running to this month, you can depend on Luster products to keep your smile bright!
5. Transition Chic
It’s always a good idea to be prepared! Be on the lookout this month for special wardrobe pieces that transition easily from summer to fall. Flats, cardigans and tights are great ways to turn summer outfits into fall ones – and you’ll be ahead of the style game if you stock up now.
Have a Restful and Relaxing July!
Finally! The warm days of summer are upon us – which means backyard BBQs, pool parties, weekend getaways and more. While this season is a time for fun in the sun, don’t forget to take time to relax, regroup and reconnect with friends. Share special moments together that make you smile!
Newsletter Tips for July:
1. Take Precaution in the Pool
It’s hard to believe that swimming can actually be harmful to your teeth, but it’s true. Dental researchers have found that excessively chlorinated pool water can erode and stain tooth enamel. When out of the pool, watch out for lemon – another culprit of summertime stains prevalent in beverages and warm-weather foods. After a dip or a snack, make sure to rinse with water and brush your pearly whites.
2. Lighten Up!
With summer activities that make you sweat, it’s time to lighten up on your hair and makeup. Try no-fuss looks like a side braid with waterproof mascara and peach-colored blush on your cheeks. Don’t sacrifice your time having fun with the pressure to look perfect.
3. Laughter is the Best Medicine
Statistics show that laughter makes you a happier, healthier person by strengthening your immune system, diminishing pain and protecting you from the damaging effects of stress. Whether you tell a joke, get together with a group of friends or take in a comedy flick this summer, you’re improving your overall health! Remember to keep that smile gorgeous – floss and brush twice daily with Luster WHITE 7!
4. The Return of Denim
The ‘80s are back in a big way with classic denim pieces. It’s time to pull those denim jackets, vests, shirts, shorts and skirts back out of your closet this season. For summer, pair a denim dress with a pair of wedges for a flirty and fun look. It’s always a good thing when easygoing style reemerges!
5. Go on a Picnic!
July is National Picnic Month. Now is the perfect time to head over to your local park and enjoy the outdoors for lunch. Whether picnicking with your family, friends or significant other, be sure to pack foods that protect teeth and prevent cavities– like fruit, cheese and plenty of water.
Start Your Summer Off Right: Sun, Sand and A Sexy Smile!
June marks the official beginning of summer, so why not vow to spend it outside? We’ve got some great suggestions of ways to enjoy the great weather. Whatever you do this month, we hope it makes you smile!
Newsletter Tips for June
1. Gift the Guy in Your Life with Luster
Get the guy in your life a Father’s Day gift that gives them gorgeous, white teeth. Dad, brothers and sons will go gaga for Luster 1 Hour White – they’ll love that a gadget can get their smile six shades whiter in under an hour. This easy-to-use, convenient product will make every man smile!
2. Take a Walk!
This season, focus on getting in an hour of exercise everyday on a schedule. Studies show that taking a walk before dinner improves the way the body metabolizes food. Throw on your sneakers and go for a stroll with a friend before you start winding down for your evening meal. One healthy habit sparks more!
3. Soak Up Some Vitamin D
Safe exposure to the sun is important for overall health. As long as you wear SPF 30, the sun can be a great source of Vitamin D. You only need 10 minutes of sun every day to reduce your chances of ovarian, breast, colon and prostate cancers. Vitamin D also helps build strong bones and teeth. Doesn’t that make you smile?
4. Romper Revival
Rompers are an easy and fun way to look fabulous this summer! These one-piece garments are back in style, and have been worn by celebrities like Jessica Simpson, Blake Lively and Nicole Richie. Pair with a long necklace and a pair of wedges and you’re good to go. Don’t forget – the one thing that’s always in style is a smile.
5. Get Outside!
June is Great Outdoors Month, so focus on spending time with your family outside. Whether you tour a national park, go on a camping trip or start your own backyard garden, now is the time to enjoy the outdoors. Before you hit the road, make sure to pack the essentials – bug spray, soap, toothbrush and, of course, Luster WHITE 7!

Newsletter Tips for May:
1. Go Natural
After a long winter of layering, dare to go bare and natural. May is a perfect time to transition into a less-is-more beauty routine. Toss your heavy foundations and creams and let your real skin show! Just a dab of tinted moisturizer, a swipe of mascara and a hint of blush and you should be good to go.

3. Get Back on Your Bike and Go-Green!
It’s time to hop back on that bike that’s been sitting in your garage all winter and do something for the environment! Change up your workout routine and get out of gym! Bicycling can be a great, low intensity cardio workout that tones your legs at the same time. Added plus: it’s an eco-friendly mode of transportation, so instead of “running” errands – bike them!
4. Bring Out Your Whites!
Memorial Day, May 30, unofficially marks the acceptable time to start wearing white clothing again. Stock up on cute white dresses and jeans this month so you’ll have plenty of new outfits to wear once the holiday hits. Don’t forget the best accessory with white clothing – a bright white smile!
5. Protect Your Skin with SPF 30
May is National Skin Cancer Awareness Month. Even though skin cancer is one of the most preventable types of cancers, 1 out of every 5 Americans will be diagnosed in their lifetimes. This season, protect yourself by generously slathering on lotion with SPF 30 or higher. Don’t be a part of this scary statistic!
Smile …. Don’t Let April Showers Get You Down!
You know what they say about April and her showers. Make sure you enjoy every minute of spring because before you know it, summer will be right around the corner. When the weather is right, go for a brisk walk or run outside. If it’s rainy and cloudy, stay inside and start a new book or watch an old movie. Whatever it is, make sure it makes you SMILE!
Newsletter Tips for April:
April Fools!
It’s undeniable that April Fools is a holiday that always seems to sneak up on you. Whether you are the villain or victim of this day, it’s always a nice way to make life more interesting. Play a friendly prank or joke and use this holiday as an excuse to smile, laugh, and have fun!
1. An Apple a Day Takes the Doctor Away
It may be cliché, but it really is true. The foods you eat are the most important factors of your health. Apples not only taste good, but protect the heart, cushion joints, and increase lung capacity. So start your Spring Cleaning by throwing away unhealthy foods and replacing them with fresh fruit, veggies, and protein
2. Keep Smiling
When most people think of April they think of showers, but don’t fret – spring is here! Enjoy the cool, rainy days and remember beautiful days of summer are right around the corner. Smile — Luster Premium White will keep your teeth looking healthy and bright no matter what the weather ahead!
3. Be bold!
With the season changing from bland to bold, it’s no wonder that prints are back in this season. Try pairing tank tops with floral, paisley or animal print skirts for an easy but fashionable look. Don’t be afraid to stand out this spring!
4. More Sun, More Skin
It’s almost time to break out the shorts and flip flops! With summer around the corner, make sure you show off your skin carefully. Use a double-duty moisturizer with SPF to keep your legs smooth and safe.
Bye Bye, Winter Blues!
