When summer arrives, usually, due to the heat, people usually walk lightly in clothes, no matter where they are, whether on the beach, the pool, the shopping center, the supermarket, the park, etc.

This allows them to cool off and be able to tolerate inclement weather. In addition, it is a good opportunity to take a little color, while doing other activities. However, those who dress that way, usually worry about the appearance of their body, because this type of clothing does not allow them to hide their natural imperfections, such as stretch marks, orange peel and spots on the skin.

While it is true that there are spots that come out as a result of the incidence of the sun’s rays on the skin, others appear due to the rubbing of the skin with clothing. Such is the case with the crotch and armpits.

In fact, one of the most problematic areas of the body are the exilas. If the shaves, they will stain; if you try to clarify them, they are likely to end up irritated; if you take them to the natural, some will censor you and see it as a lack of hygiene. The truth is that the subject of armpits can become a real dilemma.

Some people have never done it, not because they are denied the possibility, but because they don’t know how to do it. If that is your case, in this short post I will share with you some very interesting tips so that you can exfoliate your armpits without risks and in a natural way. Let’s see.

Instructions for exfoliating your armpits

Since the skin of the armpits is one of the most sensitive in the whole body, there are different factors that lead to staining. For example: the use of deodorants, hair removal, sweating, hormonal changes, etc.

Perhaps, at this time, you are not worried about whether they are stained or not. However, you’ll likely start to get restless when you want to wear a sleeveless flannel. Therefore, the best thing you can do is to be preventive and take action on the matter today. But how can you do it? If you want to exfoliate your armpits, with natural products, you can try the following:

1. During the night, cleanse the skin of your armpits very well with the help of a damp wipe.
2. Then, moisten your hand and take a handful of sugar and massage gently. This will serve to exfoliate your armpits and, at the same time, remove dead skin cells.
3. Then, wet a cotton ball with a little coconut oil and pass it through your armpits again. Allow it to act for about 15 minutes and then rinse with plenty of water.
4. Dry very well and apply a moisturizer.
5. The next day, apply a deodorant that is moisturizing and fresh. Do not use those that are spray, as these usually irritate the skin a lot.
6. Repeat this routine every night, with the exception of sugar exfoliation. This should be done only once a week.

In case you have the spots very impregnated on the skin, you should do the following:

1. Depilate.
2. Wash your armpits every day with a soap that is antiseptic. That way, you will be in charge of removing the impurities and the remains of deodorant. For this procedure, use a soft sponge. This way you will not attack your skin anymore.
3. Exfoliate your armpits with sugar by making very delicate circular movements.
4. Wash with plenty of water and dry them well, since the humidity promotes the proliferation of fungi and bacteria, which are responsible for bad odors.
5. Apply a moisturizer. In fact, if possible, do it every day after bathing.
6. Use a deodorant that is moisturizing, since in addition to controlling perspiration, they are responsible for keeping the armpits hydrated.

What do you need to exfoliate your armpits?

Some of the resources you will need to exfoliate your armpits are the following:

•  Oatmeal: for this you only have to make a paste of oats, lemon and honey, which you must apply in the armpit area. Allow it to act for an hour before rinsing. Repeat this procedure about 3 times a week, soon the results will be visible. With this method, you will not only be able to exfoliate your armpits, but it will also leave a very pleasant smell to your skin.
•  Sugar: this is one of the most powerful exfoliants, since in addition to cleansing the skin, it is responsible for unclogging the pores, which accelerates the renewal of the cells of the epidermis. You just have to mix 3 tablespoons of sugar with a few drops of lemon juice, apply the dough in the armpits and make gentle circular movements. Then, allow it to sit for about 15 minutes and finally rinse with plenty of cold water.
•  Aloe Vera: for no one is a secret how beneficial this plant is for our skin. In addition, it is very easy to use. You just have to apply the gel in the armpits and leave it for about 15 minutes before removing it with plenty of water. You can repeat this procedure every other day until you start seeing results.
•  Baking soda: mix it with water so that the result is a smooth and uniform mass. Take some of it with your fingers and apply it gently over your armpits for about 10 minutes.
•  Yogurt: we must highlight the fact that lactic acid is an excellent ally when it comes to moisturizing the skin, but it is also when what you want is to lighten it.

You can combine it with a little lemon juice and sea salt. Then, apply this mixture about 30 minutes before going to the shower.

In addition to what has been said so far, what other recommendations should you take into account to exfoliate your armpits without causing irritation?

Tips for exfoliating your armpits

Citrus fruits are among the great allies in the exfoliation of the armpits. It is one of the most effective when it comes to clarifying them. However, in order for them to take effect, you must apply their juice to yourself before you go to sleep and let it work throughout the night so that it removes dead cells. Then, in the morning, rinse with plenty of cold water.

But, in addition to the juice, you can use the peel of the orange. You just have to put it to dry and grind it until the final result is a fine powder. Mix the powder with water or milk creating a uniform mass, which you will have to rub in your armpits for about 20 minutes before rinsing them with cold water.

It should be noted that you can also rinse your armpits with apple cider vinegar, coconut oil, potato juice, cucumber juice, etc. In addition to lightening the skin, it also keeps them well hydrated.

As a last recommendation, use deodorants that are cream, bar or roll-on, since they are the best options for those who want to have their armpits well hydrated and cared for. Liquid deodorants, such as spray deodorants, are usually high in alcohol and further dry out the skin.

If you follow these recommendations, you can be sure that, after a while, you can show off your armpits without fear or censorship, because they will be free of unsightly dark spots and the skin will look very healthy. So, don’t wait any longer to start exfoliating your armpits, do it today.
