If you’ve been putting off your visits to the salon because you can’t fathom taking a waxing session and opting to shave your body hair, particularly the hair on your underarms (or armpits), then you need to read this! Many of us frequently skip our salon appointments in favor of shaving, but with time, due to regular shaving, the skin begins to darken. This is a regular occurrence when shaving your underarms, but fear not; by following these simple methods, you may actually get rid of unsightly armpits.
Lemon Juice
Lemon is a natural bleaching agent that aids in the process of whitening the discolored region. All you have to do is rub lemon juice on the darkened region for two to three minutes each day before bathing. After showering, moisturize the region, and you’ll notice benefits in 7-10 days.
Potato juice
Potatoes are also an excellent natural bleach and anti-irritant, aiding in the whitening of underarms and providing quick relief from itching. Apply a small slice of potato or potato juice to the armpits and leave for 10-15 minutes. Use it twice daily for best results, and say hello to brighter underarms!
Apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar contains moderate acids that aid in the removal of dead cells and also functions as an excellent disinfectant. Begin by combining two tablespoons of this vinegar with two tablespoons of baking soda. Apply this mixture to the affected region and allow it to sit for ten minutes or until it dries. Rinse it thoroughly with cold water and repeat the procedure three times a week to observe results.
Olive Oil
Combine a spoonful of olive oil and a tablespoon of brown sugar to create a homemade exfoliant! Scrub it for a minute or two, and then set it aside for five minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water and repeat twice a week for best results.
Aloe Vera
You can either scoop the gel off the Aloe Vera plant or purchase organic Aloe Vera gel. Simply apply the gel to your underarms and allow it to sit for fifteen minutes. Following that, rinse it thoroughly. It is a natural exfoliant that eliminates dead skin cells and is packed with anti-bacterial properties that soothe and nourish the skin.
