Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Dark underarms are usually due to depilatory creams which have lots of chemicals and are harmful too. Try besan and haldi mixed with rosewater...waxing is the best option. =)

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Waxing that hurts soooooo much :(

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

I'll let u all in on a secret, before waxing/threading apply baby teething gel it numbs the area n leaves u with a pain-free thread/wax!

Sara I agree it does hurt..but I much rathar "ouch" a little then live with dark underarms =)

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

i have been waxing for quite some time now, and i get dark patchy skin afterwards. what should i do?

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Pinklove that's prolly because of ingrown hair..common after waxing. Best thing wud be to exfoliate u're skin with a good home-made scrub like olive oil and brown sugar mix in some lemon too..and follow up with a good moisturizer.

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

thankss =)

and this remedy is suitable for both arms AND underarms?

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

cinnamon and honey evens out uneven skin tone meaning it lightens dark spots for the face? Never knew cinnamon could be used for that. would this be good for under eye problems too?

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Pinklove if u have dark arms, use besan and wild turmeric...

yes cinnamon and honey lighten dark spots on the face indopak, however don't use it for dark-circles! For dark circles, buy vitamin E capsules and massage the oil under u're eyes everyday..

For dark-circles cucumber juice and potato juice mixed with rosewater is ideal. Soak cotton pads with this and leave it for atleast an hour =)

Feel free to contact me for any queries any of u may have =)

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Girls pay alot of attention to their face, and don't take care of their hair/nails and feet..I have made-over the prettiest of faces but sadly they never took time out and "groomed" themselves =)

A manicure/pedicure is essential and can easily be done at home.
1.) remove all old nail-polish
2.)soak u're hands and feet in warm water with a little shower-gel.
3.) pat-dry hands and push back u're cuticles with a cuticle cream and an orange stick wrapped with tissue. (professionals cut the cuticles which cud lead to infections so avoid that)

4.) scrub hands with olive oil, lemon and sugar till the sugar dissolves.
5.) wash-off and buff nails and cut and file them (always file in one direction)
6.) apply u're favorite moisturizer

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Do you mix this together and apply it underarm? For how long? and how often? I think this dark underarms problem for girls...so annoying!

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Yes, Asian skins sigh mix them together to form a paste and leave it on for 20 mins and scrub-off (yes its a messy procedure)

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

so do you know if this process significantly lightens underarms? sigh i hope so

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

i think its more of a hormonal problem.....or birthcontrol pills....
i would say...lose the stick...and exfoliate using a glycolic wash every other day(10% glycolic wash..or a 20% one..if you are tolerant)..dont rub too hard...wear loose cotton clothes...and keep your diet light...(so you wont sweat offensively..)

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

^glycolic wash?? where do you get that? or what is that?

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Platinumskincare.com
or MD Forte glycolic wash and cream
i use the cream every night...its the most wonderful thing ever!!
