Dark Underarms

Hi, I come from an asian background &
since I started wearing deodorant in my
teens, my underarms have become darker in
colour. What can I do to get them
lighter? It's really embarassing, it
looks like I have armpit hair all the
time.

I heard that you can rub a lemon under
your arms to make it lighter. I haven't
tried it, but it might work. When I
notice darkness under my arms, I use a new
razor. Also, mka esure you use shaving
cream, especially in that area. And try
not to shave as much.

I No Longer Shave

Thanks for your reply cw2004. I will try
that lemon remedy.
I used to shave my armpits 3 years ago
when I noticed my armpits getting darker.
Now, I either wax them or pluck them
because I hear that shaving them might be
the cause of the dark armpits.

Have you gained any weight? I know
underarm darkness is caused most of the
time by skin friction. If it's not that,
then maybe you should try to efoliate the
skin there with a washcloth or loofah.

I also tried magic cream and it's really
effective.I've already seen some results
in a week.After 3 weeks i've seen that my
underarms are not dark anymore.You can
visit the site.They have photos of before
and after the result. Edit I hope your
problem is solved.

I accidently discovered godiva deodorant
and ever since i've used it, my underarms
have become lighter :d . Now I also use
a combination of their whitening soap and
cream and my underarms look better than
ever. Im asian and one of our problems
really is dark underarms. I think godiva
is available online. Someone posted a
link to their site, so I guess you can
order thru that link. Beliv you me, it's
the best product iv tried for my dark
underarms.

Dark Underarms

Hello people,
i just want to share what I used to whiten
my under arms, its called the derma
peeling set, where the dark skin on the
underarms is peeled... It really worked
very good on me. I have had very very
dark underarms and it did work for me very
fast though! I have to repaeat the
process twice since my first peeling did
not make my u.A. As white as I wanted it.
Bt on my second session of peeling onthe
product it already very very nice!
Peeling should be spaced in 3 months!

Also, make sure you use deodorant that
does not contain fragrance and other
ingredients that can irritate the
underarms. This can help as well.

U can try different underarm whitening
creams. I had the same problem before
but i'm stisfied with this product I am
currently using. I stopped using
roll-ons as well as they often leave
sticky residue.
