I was going to post the same thing as Gabbie! I use her trick about once or twice a week. I used to scrub em everyday with the exfoliating pad, but my armpits began feeling sensitive. Also, after I scrub them I use conditioner on my armpits just so they will feel softer (something cheap like suave) and then I shave with the conditioner too. It is amazing to see how much buildup gets on the exfoliating pad though - ew & yuck!

use rice powder mixed with milk and apply like a mask underneath your arms. you can also use lightening creams. plus waxing reduced my darkness under my arms just by one use! try to keep it as clean as possible also, and wear deodorant! i also recommend andreas'choice

I was directed to stop shaving my underarm area....instead I was told to wax instead. A few months after making the switch the area lightened up big time. Nikki B. is right on with the papaya soap. If you have the guts I would suggest waxing them yourself to save the expense of going to a salon.
