7 ways to get rid of dark armpit naturally

Raw Potato
The mild bleaching property of potato works effectively in lightening dark skin, but unlike the strong skin bleach, it does not cause skin irritation. The natural bleaching property of raw potato not only helps in lightening black under arms but is also the best way to remove dark circles around eyes.

Take a medium sized potato, peel and grate it in order to extract the juice from the pulp. Use a cotton ball to spread this juice on the sides and back of your neck, let it dry for 30 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water. Repeat this remedy 3 times a day for 2 weeks to get remarkable results.

Lemon Juice

Skin lightening tips are incomplete without the inclusion of lemons in it. When it comes to removing any kind of dark patches or marks from skin, there is nothing like lemon juice. Lemon juice is the most effective natural bleach which helps in lightening skin tan, treating age spots, pigmentation and hyper-pigmentation.
The powerful antiseptic and antibacterial properties of lemon juice also help in getting rid of body odour. Cut a Lemon into half and rub one-half of the lemon on your underarms for 5 to 8 minutes while squeezing out the juice. Rub the other half of the lemon on the other underarm in the same manner, wait for 20 minutes and wash the area thoroughly with water. Lemon can make your skin dry, so it is best to apply moisturizer on the underarms after using this remedy.
