We spend a lot of time shaving, scrubbing and cleaning our underarms. To mask the bad odour, we also apply deodorants. But sometimes,  the dark colour of our armpits is due to some harsh chemicals, genetics and others. If you want to get rid of your dark armpit, follow these easy tips.

Try to Avoid Chemical Products 

The skin in our underarms is sensitive, so applying chemical products can irritate it and result in dark colour. So, avoid using the same.

Use Some Home Remedies 

There are lots of natural products available just in our kitchen. Try to use them to lighten your dark armpit. Like using potato juice or egg yolk mask to lighten a dark area. Lemon juice is also an option. The citric acid helps dissolve the outer layer of skin and lighten it. You can also use honey to exfoliate your arm area. Be mindful before using these as over-exfoliation can irritate your skin.

Consult a Doctor 

If you are done using home remedies and still there is inflammation and itchiness in your armpit, it’s time you see a doctor.

Along with dark armpit, if you are facing abnormal menstrual and hair growth or weight loss, don’t waste your time. Just consult your doctor about it. But if it is just due to cosmetic issues or due to shaving, be patient! You will soon get back your natural colour.
