Get Rid of Dark Underarm Concerns

January 19, 2024

Summer brings with it hot weather and cool, colorful outfits. However, many women are hesitant to wear off-shoulder tops due to dark and rough underarm skin, which affects their aesthetics. As a result, women find themselves in a dilemma: wear long-sleeved clothes and feel hot or wear sleeveless clothes and expose their flaws! If you find yourself in this situation, then follow our tips right away!

Treating dark and rough underarm skin

1. Mung bean powder

With easily accessible and simple ingredients, all you need to do is take a teaspoon of mung bean powder and mix it with 5 to 10 drops of rose water to form a liquid mixture. Apply this mixture to the underarm area for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse with warm water and pat dry with a soft towel. Consistently apply this treatment twice a week, and you’ll soon have bright and smooth underarm skin to confidently wear sleeveless clothes.

2. Sea salt

This is a method of exfoliating and quickly restoring the bright and feminine appearance of the underarm area. It’s really simple, all you need to do is take a small handful of sea salt and gently massage it into the skin for about 3 minutes while showering. Then rinse off with warm water to complete the process. You should do this 2-3 times a week to achieve the desired results.

3. Loofah

Similar to using sea salt, this is also a quick and effective method of exfoliating the underarm area. Use a loofah to gently scrub the skin in this area 2-3 times a week, then rinse with warm water. You will be surprised by the results!

*Note: In addition to the above methods, avoiding tight-fitting clothes that cause friction on this sensitive area will also help minimize the occurrence of darkening. Additionally, the deodorant products you use daily may also be the cause of discoloration in the underarm area. Therefore, limit direct application of these products to the skin. Instead, apply them to your clothes.

Minimizing pores

1. Ice

After showering, use a small ice cube to gently massage the underarm area for about 2-3 minutes, then pat dry with a soft towel. This simple method will help minimize and shrink enlarged pores caused by shaving or plucking hair.

2. Change your habits

Many women have a habit of using tweezers to remove hair in the underarm area. This is not a scientific method as it will cause the pores to expand and may lead to ingrown hairs or dangerous inflammation. It is best to address these issues by waxing at home or at reputable beauty salons. This method will help you avoid damaging the skin and eliminate enlarged pores.
