There are many reasons why the skin under your armpits becomes dark. Wearing tight clothes can cause friction on this area; not taking care of the skin properly and regularly using deodorants or antiperspirants can also contribute to darkening and roughness of the underarm skin.

However, with the following easy and effective skincare tips, you can always feel confident in summer with tank tops, halter tops, or bikinis to highlight your style!

1. Avoid shaving or plucking

Instead of shaving or plucking, which many women often do, you should gently wax to get rid of those tiny black pores beneath the surface of the skin. By doing so, the armpit hair only grows very close to the top layer of the skin, so it will appear less noticeable and won’t cause darkening in that area.

2. Limit the use of deodorant rollers and scented waxes

Some ingredients in these beauty products (especially perfumes) can react with the skin and cause discoloration. If you have to use these products, choose ones that won’t cause skin discoloration or use a deodorant instead of an antiperspirant.

3. Whiten the skin with natural foods

Here are some simple ways to use natural ingredients that are easy to find and affordable, which can help lighten the skin under your armpits and make it brighter:

– Mix 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of cucumber juice, and 1 tablespoon of turmeric powder to create a thick paste. Apply it to the underarm area. After about 20 minutes, rinse it off with warm water. Apply this mixture to the armpits 2-3 times a week for the best results.

– You can also use potato juice or simply cut a potato into thin slices and apply it to your armpits. Potato juice has natural whitening properties, tightens the pores, and helps prevent darkening of the armpit area.

– Every night before going to bed, gently massage the underarm area with vitamin E oil or natural coconut oil, which can naturally whiten the armpit skin.

– The simplest method is to take advantage of ingredients available in the kitchen. Mix 1 tablespoon of yogurt, 1 tablespoon of milk, and 1 tablespoon of flour or baking soda together. Apply the mixture to your armpits. Rinse off with warm water after 15 minutes.
