Ways to Get rid of Dark Armpits

Ways to get rid of dark armpitsDark patches on the armpit can be very embarrassing and irritating if seen on a selfie or a video playback. Ladies tend to skip on sleeveless materials just to avoid grossing out people , should they have to wave over the head to a friend or do anything that involves lifting the hand. There are ways to get rid of dark armpits, but first what are the causes.

 CAUSES OF DARK ARMPITS


1. Shaving – Aside from razor bumps, shaving with razors cause dark armpits. Razors cut only the hair on the surface of the skin, leaving the inner hairs to form bumps and stubbles , resulting in a dark color. Waxing as against razors or shaving creams do a better job of getting rid of the armpit hairs from the root, keeping you hairless longer sans dark armpits.

2.Use of Strong deodorant – Studies have shown that  strong deodorants especially ones containing alcohol, darken the armpit skin. Alcohol leads to dehydration , therefore applying alcohol on your naked skin would expose your skin cells to alcohol, thereby drying them up and resulting in a dark armpit.

3. Dead cells – The accumulation of dead cells, deodorants and sweat, if not probably cleaned can result in dark underarms.  Use a good exfoliating cream to get rid of those dead skin cells and to get rid of the dark armpits.


Ways to get rid of dark armpits:

1. Lemon Juice

When you begin the application of lemon on the skin, it is advisable to use deodorant sparingly to avoid any form of reaction.
