Can lemon whiten my underarms in 100 days?
The most common cause of darkening of the armpits is in the anatomy, the rubbing of the armpits against each other. Another common cause: shaving and plucking. Every time you shave or pluck, you cause micro abrasions. When healed, these wounds cause darkening. You may not be aware of these, but you can easily confirm it by putting alcohol on your underarms after you pluck or shave. It’s going to be very painful because of the abrasions. Shaving and plucking can also cause armpit hair to stand straight up and enlarge hair follicles, making your armpit take on the appearance of chicken skin. Waxing can also cause trauma to the skin, although the burn may be slight. Some deodorants also cause an allergy and irritate your skin which results to dark armpits. There are also other less common causes, like skin asthma. Extra weight also aggravates pigmentation and darkens some areas of the body, including the nape, underarms, and back of the knees.
