Choose stain-fighting foods: lettuce, spinach, broccoli and cauliflower all help protect your teeth from staining. Catherine Zeta Jones uses strawberries to keep her teeth as white as snow. The malic acid from strawberries dissolves extrinsic stains from coffee and tea. Too much of anything is bad, however, so only do this in moderation.
Lipstick: stay away from red lipstick with blue hues as this will make your teeth appear grey. Instead, choose paler, natural nude shades with more of a brownish hue for a smashing smile.
Body bronzers: visual contrast is important to making your eyes AND YOUR TEETH *pop*. Instead of suffering the harmful UVA and UVB rays, use a self-tanning lotion or spray tan to get that California look!
Jewellery: choose silver, platinum and white rhinestones to match and accentuate the lightness of your teeth. Stay away from gold, which will make your teeth appear more yellow.
Clothing: instead of choosing a stark white shirt, go with a creme or off-white coloured top. This will make your teeth appear whiter than they might really be.
