Hello everyone
Common causes:
In this post we show how lighten up the darkening underarm and private
area using of course natural remedies, but first let see the most common causes
of this problem.
Common causes:
There many causes of underarm and feminine area darkening such as shaving which irritate the skin, excessive
sweating, harsh deodorant or hair removal product which contains
chemical in it, and due to the frequent rubbing of the skin against skin and
etc...
How to lighten the dark areas:
Hygiene:
Clean your private area
and underarm daily with warm water and a mild soap, and always keep these areas dry especially down there, because these areas
tend to get all sweaty and wet, and should start wearing cotton underwear for
down there, because wearing tight underwear prevents these area from breathing
fresh air.
Waxing:
To remove hair I recommend
waxing, because when you wax you pull the hair from the roots and usually wax
is made of natural ingredients, unlike shaving which cuts the hair and
irritates the skin and makes it red. And if you like shaving or waxing is too
much painful than it’s your choice.
Exfoliate:
Exfoliating those areas will remove the dead skin
cells and prevents ingrown hair; you can use an exfoliating brush or gloves while
you are in the shower, lather up with soap and gently scrub your skin in circular
motion, then rinse.
After that use this natural scrub once a week made of lemon and salt; this scrub will
make your skin very soft, and lighter:
2 lemons peel, half lemon juice, and 2 tablespoon salt (you can add more of salt if it’s
needed, it should not be all liquidy), stir them in a small bowl, gently scrub
your skin in circular motion, leave it on for 10 – 15 minutes then rinse (you
can use this scrub on your whole body, but only for 1 minutes if you want to
use is on your face).
You should know that this scrub is a bit harsh, so don’t use it after
shaving or waxing.
Lemon (or lime) and tomato juice mask:
Or drink it!
So how you going to make this acidly mask? It’s really easy all you have
to do is dice 1 tomato don’t peel
it, and squeeze 1 lime or lemon or you can peel it and put into
the blender along with the tomato, take a piece of cotton and soak it in the
tomato and lemon juice, then apply it on your skin, and just before the skin
absorb the juice apply a small amount of starch on it and gently massage it, leave it on for about 15
minutes or as long as you can, then rinse applying this mask daily will help
lighten the dark areas, you will see results in 15 days but it depends on your skin tone and type.
You could use either tomato juice
or lemon juice as mask; but both them have natural acids; and fruits acids are used in a lot of skin products, so why not using them both.
Hope you find these helpful,
thanks for reading :)
hey thank you so much this scrub really does work :) do you know any masks that prevent redness in face and another scrub for making our skin clear of small brown light patches on my cheeks (their not blackheads or freckles or spots )thanks so much :D
ReplyDeleteI am a bit confused on how to make the scrub? do i add the peel of 2 lemons graded? or whole? and how much lemon juice?
ReplyDeletecan you give the the exact recipe on the scrub?
ReplyDeleteUse the hand grater (cheese grater) to grate the lemon peel (Picture: http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/grating-the-lemon-peel.jpg )
ReplyDeleteThen juice the lemon (2 lemons)
Then add 2 tablespoons salt to the lemon juice and lemon peel..
The scrub must feel like a wet sand.. Not all the salt being dissolved
Then wet your skin (clean) with warm water and massage it with this scrub... leave it on for 10-15 minutes(it's a bit harsh) and then rinse with water.
I hope it's clear now
any tips for very oily sken...
