Brilio.net - Blackened armpits may be a skin problem that many people experience. Even though the underarm skin is not very visible, the appearance of dark black discoloration can disturb your appearance.
Especially for girls who like to wear sleeveless or sleeveless clothes. The sleeveless shirt model makes the underarm skin clearly visible when you move your hands.
Armpits turning black might make you think that this comes from a lack of hygiene. Lack of exfoliation in the armpits triggers a buildup of dead skin cells, causing the skin to look darker. Irregular exfoliation can cause dead cells to accumulate and cause uneven skin tone.
Apart from being caused by a lack of care, the use of deodorant and antiperspirant products can also be a source of problems. Some deodorants and antiperspirants contain chemicals that can cause skin irritation. This reaction can cause inflammation and hyperpigmentation of the underarm skin.
Likewise, the shaving process can cause discoloration of the armpits. You need to know that the shaving or waxing process can cause skin irritation and inflammation. Using unclean tools can also increase the risk of infection, thereby contributing to darkening of the skin.
So that your darkened underarm skin is bright again and free of blemishes, you need to carry out intensive care. In a video uploaded to the TikTok account @nur.indahsaleh, the mothers can be seen showing the products used, namely eucalyptus oil and baby oil.
Eucalyptus oil is known for its various health benefits, especially as an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory. The antiseptic and antibacterial properties of eucalyptus oil help prevent bacterial and fungal infections in the underarm area.
Meanwhile, the anti-inflammatory properties of eucalyptus oil help reduce inflammation and irritation of the underarm skin. Chronic inflammation can cause hyperpigmentation, so reducing inflammation can help brighten underarm skin.
Meanwhile, the second product is Cusson Baby oil Mild and Gentle. It is known that baby care products contain chamomile flowers, olive oil and vitamin E. All of these ingredients are able to maintain skin moisture and clean crusts that stick to the scalp.
Apart from that, baby oil has benefits for brightening dark underarms. This is because baby oil is famous for its ability to lock moisture in the skin. Armpits that are well hydrated tend to be healthier and less prone to irritation or darkening. With regular use, this oil can make underarm skin smoother and softer, thereby helping reduce the appearance of black underarms.
