Re: Dark Underarms?
Devoted2Allah:
i have the same problem, its not waxing which makes it worse its the deplitory creams they are really bad make your skin dark, waxing actually gets rid of the dead skin but once you have dark underarms theres not much you can do…i know it stinks, i really wanted to do something about them before i got married coz mine are really bad so i told my doctor(shows how desperate i was about them and how bad they are) and so she referred me to a skin sprecialist. she said i was the first to come to her with such a problem and thats not much i could do because people with pigmentation in their skin (coloured people) usually have dark underarms, and are dark on their knee and elbows, i cant remember the full explanation she gave me but she said all i could was conceal them with camouflage make up which uses on people with burns, scars etc.
you could try cucmber juice mixed with honey and lemon, i have given up although im thinking of trying fair and lovely on them!
Wow thanks so much for the info!
My knees and knuckles haven’t gotten dark it’s just the underarms..argh..and i’m considering fair and lovely too! Just am pregnant and plan on nursing…so don’t trust the stuff.
