Beauty Tips for Dark Underarms


This is something I would suggest doing first, before spending your money on at-home whitening or peeling kits. Not only are these all natural recipes but they cost way way less then buying a kit.


Tip 1:
Lemons
Baking Soda
The most important step: STOP shaving for one month - after the one month begin to wax.
Take half a fresh lemon and every time you shower rub your underarms vigorously with it. After each shower rub baking soda under your arms. STOP using deodorant. Use the baking soda instead! Trust me, I thought I would smell horrible, but the baking soda works better than most all natural deodorants!
Tip 2:

Apply a paste of 1 teaspoon of Gram flour, a pinch of Turmeric powder and 1 teaspoon of Sandalwood powder, some lime-juice and milk. Now Wash it with water.
Tip 3:

Take 1 teaspoon of Cucumber juice, 1 teaspoon of Limejuice and a pinch of Turmeric powder. Apply and leave for 20 minutes before washing.
Tip 4:
Ingredients:
· brown sugar
· coconut oil
Procedure:
Before bath, put 3 drops of oil on your palm. Rub on underarm. Massage gently.
Then put small amount of brown sugar. Massage it in circular motion but gently and slowly.
Do it every other day before bath. It helps whiten your underarm and also helps remove dead cells on your underarm that cause darkness.
Tip 5:
For dark underarms and neck apply lemon juice mixed with cucumber juice and a pinch of turmeric daily. Leave it on your skin for 20 minutes!" That should do the trick without spending a lot of money on skin lightening products..It may take a bit longer but if you have the patience and the time this quick Fix will surely work for most.
Tip 6:
Rub lemon slices on your armpits. Use alum powder instead of deodorants. After a shower rub some baking soda on your armpits. Apply vitamin E oil on your armpits. Wash your armpits with coconut oil. Make a paste using 1 tsp of lime juice, 1 tsp of cucumber juice and a pinch of turmeric powder. Apply it on your armpits and rinse after 20 minutes.

White Nails

To whiten your nails, try these:

* Use a common whitening toothpaste. Try scrubbing your nails with Pearl Drops, it’s just as easy as achieving a pearly white smile and will take away any stains and shine up your nails.

* Soak your nails in water with lemon juice or lemon slices. The lemon acts as an astringent and will strip away stains. Once your hands are dry, you’ll only need to put on a couple of coats of a clear topcoat

Honey Facial Mask

Perhaps the best facial mask is honey.

Place a cloth in warm water and apply to your face to open the pores. Smear on honey, and leave on for 15 to 30 minutes.
Rinse off with warm water, then use cold water to close the pores.
Use once a week.

Carrot Facial Mask

Ingredients Needed:
2-3 large carrots
4 1/2 tablespoons honey

Directions:
Cook carrots, then mash. Mix with honey. Apply gently to the skin, wait 10 minutes. Rinse off with cool water.
