apply lemon juice to your pits...the acid helps peel off the darkened dead skin to reveal a fairer new skin but do not overdo it because when you apply deodorant it might sting and could break the skin especially if you do it everyday...do it every other day and give time for your armpits to breathe...it worked for my girlfriend....

If the pigmentation is deep , you would want to rule out treatable causes like erythrasma(a bacterial infection), pigmented tinea versicolor or acanthosis nigricans. Before trying on anything, consult your dermatologist.
Normally most people who shave or use deodorants regularly get slight darkening of the armpits. You may use low concentrations of peeling agents like glycolic acid or alpha hydroxy acids. Remember, though, that these may irritate the skin and has to be used alternating with moisturising lotions.

mix lemon juice with pure almond oil and glycrin then rub the mixture with small piece of cotton on the dark areas especially under arms , it will lighten with the time
it is better to do it morning and evening

Waxing or shaving underarms too often would make it dark.... so you could probably not do it as often as you are and after a few months would see some diffrnce?

are you filipino? i am, and I think most who are, are obsessed with whitening their underarms. i wouldn't bother. it's no big deal. i know there is societal pressure for looking good and having flawless skin, but first of all, it's your armpit. secondly, if not the armpit, what next? people are too busy trying to change who they are. be happy being yourself. i'm sure you're beautiful regardless!

Do u use BO spray if yes then that's ur prob. If u still insist then u must keep the spray far away from ur armpits wen u do use them.

Very Simple
Put some acid very little, the skin will peel off and it will be very fair.

you can get your skin bleached! a dermatologist can do it and even some places the do waxing can bleach skin, if certified to do so. if you believe it, they even have what is called "anal bleaching" where they bleach the skin around your anal region. it's possible to fix, dont feel awkward :o)

Try IPL laser. It is costly but your underarm will be brighter and less hairy.
