Homemade Scrub To Whiten Dark Underarms

Do you hesitate to wear tank tops or sleeveless outfits because of the embarrassing dark underarms? If yes, then do read on, as we've got just the thing to help you thwart away those dark underarms. 

Don't worry, we're not asking you to make a trip to the nearest drugstore to buy an expensive cream or lotion, which could possibly burn a hole in your wallet. Instead, you just need to scout around your kitchen and get a few inexpensive natural ingredients to whisk up a homemade scrub.

For this scrub, you will need a cucumber, some olive oil, baking soda and a lemon. Cucumber and lemon are replete with bleaching agents that play a key role in reducing skin discolouration. On the other hand, baking soda and olive oil serve the purpose of a natural exfoliator. 

Not only do these ingredients remove the dead skin cells, but they also work as a natural antiperspirant. In other words, this ultimate scrub is an ideal solution to almost all of your underarms-related problems. 

Be it whitening of the affected area, body odour or making the skin in that area appear super soft and smooth.

Take a look at the amount of the ingredients required and the method of preparing this ultimate scrub. 

Ingredients:
1 cucumber 
1 tablespoon of olive oil 
1 tablespoon of baking soda 
2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice 

Preparation: 
Grate a cucumber and extract the juice of a lemon. 
Then mix all the ingredients together. 
Stir them well to make a coarse paste.

Use a scrub pad to gently scrub the affected area. 
Let is sit for 10-15 minutes. 
Later, rinse the area with some lukewarm water. 
Pat it dry and follow up by applying a mild moisturiser. 
Repeat this process at least 3-4 times in a week for effective results.
