Ms. Aleneus asked:
I am a 12 yr. old girl and i have dark armpits im not sure if its because i shave or my deorderant but is there a home remedy that i can use to get rid of dark armpits? I think that its really embarresing i cant even were a bathing suit…please please help!
I have heard that cutting a lemon in half and rubbing it on the dark spots helps. I have also heard that using white vinegar works well.
I piece of advice though, make sure you don’t have any open sores, because using either one of the above methods can cause sores to burn.
Good luck!
It is the pigment of your skin. You can buy skin bleaching cream that you just rub under your arms at a place such as Sally Beauty Supply or some place similar.
hun i have no clue if this works but i think i read somewhere that you can apply peroxide to your “mustache” area to lighten it…some girls have that problem. so maybe you could try that on your armpits and see if it works. i think in order for the peroxide to work best…it needs heat or sunlight. some girls also put this in their hair to lighten it and then blow dry or sit in the sun. so try it maybe before you lay out if you do that…hold your arms above your head tho lol. good luck
