"It all starts with having the right beauty tools like the new Radiant Toothpaste by Colgate Optic White so every day you are ready to shine."

Mario kicked off his partnership with the brand by hosting an Instagram Live session demonstrating how to bring out your inner radiance through your smile, along with tips for achieving the best makeup looks from the red carpet at home. Let your radiance shine through on or off the red carpet by following Mario's glam tips:

A lot of my clients usually brush their teeth before I apply their lips. I make sure to pack my Radiant Toothpaste by Colgate Optic White in my kit just in case someone needs it. There's no better confidence booster than a radiant white smile!
For the ultimate radiant natural looking glow from within, dab a bit of petroleum jelly onto the cheekbones and blend with fingers or a damp beauty blender. Use translucent powder only on the T-Zone area
Use cream shadows on eyelids instead of powders to create a velvet-like texture for smoky eyes that lasts all night.

Radiant Toothpaste by Colgate Optic White is now available at retailers nationwide. For more from Mario on how to bring out your inner radiance all year long, follow @OpticWhite and @MakeupByMario on Twitter and Instagram for exclusive content, including tips, tutorials, interviews and more.
