Okay so for some reason my under arms are like really dark and even after i shave em' they look kind of dirty cos they are of a darker tone. the deo I use is "SECRET sheer dry" and I don't think that's harsh on the skin, I even tried waxing my underarms but well it didn't help me so i stopped cos i don't like to wait for my hair to grow that long so that it can be waxed, it's disgusting. So i just shave it everyday. What can i do to improve the skin tone of my underarm?

okay so if i won't use a deo then i would come up with another problem just as bad, I don't want to stink.

u know what the brand that 1 of the answerers were mentioning is 'wakilala' a japanese brand.
I use the wash peeling ( a scrub *** exfoliant ) then apply the essence. Its fresh and your underarm produces no smell it acts as a deo as well as whitens it. Japs products is great. They have lotsa wacky cosmetic innovations. Dig 'em. My husband likes my whiter underarm...hehe....you feel more self confident rite ..i understand how you feel....
my mom always teaches me ....a cheaper method.
Get johnsons&johnsons baby lotion. Everyday before u go to sleep apply and rub the dark skin with the lotion until it absorbs. Avoid using 24 hrs or 48 hrs kind of deo as it tends to darken the skin. Find a whitening deo. Nivea is gud i heard....
No harm trying :)

Change you deodorant. I used to have dark underarms too and i noticed using Secret made it worse. Slowly I noticed a slight change right after using nivea whitening underarm deodorant. It lightened and i started waxing my UA after that. Coz the more I shave and pluck, the more it darkens.

speak with a beautician. or maybe your pharmacist because there are products to bleach the skin. but it is not something to ask here as it all depends on your skin type. no one better than a qualified beautician can advise you on the best product for you and your skin!!!
do not buy anything over the counter as this can make things worse. your beautician can tell you of another deo also, that will lighten your skin.

just try using lots of lotion, but there's really nothing you can do. everyone has darker skin under their underarms. it's natural and you'r eno different. try not to focus on the small stuff.

Try using an expholiant, or maybe tanning the rest of your body? I am not too sure about this one, but hope you find somehting that works. Good Luck.

get a lemon and chop it in half... rub it on your underarms and they will become lighter after maybe 1 1/2 weeks... i do that myself...

i do not think that you can change that. U might want to call a dermatologist and ask them what u might be able to use and what is safe.

switch your deoderant, and shaving cream first.
then put baby powder right after you take a shower, this should help!!!
