Hi lybrate-user Please do not use home bleach products. Home bleaches are very harmful and if required should always be done in a reputed salon with professional hands. A little deviated ratio of activator and powder can burn the skin. If you need to bleach or whiten your armpits you can do the following: 1. Stop shaving- Shaving can lead to dark armpits. 2. Don't use too much perfumes or deodrants. Use talk instead. 1. Mix besan with curd and apply all over your armpit. Wait for it to dry for only 4 mins. After that rub your skin in the opposite direction and it will remove dead skin for a clearer armpit. This therapy will take at least 15-20 times to show great results. 2. Armpit wax- There are professional waxes made specially for armpits, please use them once every month followed by shea butter application. 3. Laser hair removal- Laser hair removal may look expensive at first but it is the best treatment with long lasting results and a major cost saver as well.
