Dark underarms (or andarbaan ka kala pan) are common across Pakistan — caused by friction, deodorants, or shaving. Dermatologists agree that the solution isn’t bleach, but a consistent, gentle routine that respects sensitive skin.
Why Do Underarms Get Dark?
- Friction: Tight clothes and daily rubbing trigger melanin production.
- Hair Removal: Shaving leaves micro-cuts that darken over time.
- Deodorant Chemicals: Alcohol and perfume irritate skin cells.
- Dead Skin Build-up: Lack of exfoliation dulls tone and blocks pores.
Dermatologist-Recommended Routine for Dark Underarms
This 3-step routine is inspired by what skin specialists suggest for Pakistani weather and tone — a balance of cleansing, exfoliation, and brightening using non-bleaching actives.
- 1️⃣ Cleanse Gently: Use Peal Feminine Hygiene Wash daily to remove sweat, deodorant residue, and odor-causing bacteria. Its Lactic Acid & Tea Tree Oil support pH balance and prevent irritation.
- 2️⃣ Exfoliate Twice a Week: Massage Brightnix Whitening Scrub gently for 30–40 seconds. The Cucumber Extract & Titanium Dioxide polish away dead skin without harshness.
- 3️⃣ Brighten & Repair Daily: Apply Whitening Cream for Sensitive Areas (100ml) twice daily. For deeper pigmentation, add Whitening Serum first at night.
Doctor’s Advice
- Never use bleach, Dettol, or toothpaste on underarms ❌
- Moisturize daily — dryness worsens pigmentation.
- Switch to cotton clothes & gentle razors.
- Results take 3–6 weeks — consistency is key.
Safe Dermatologist Ingredients
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) — evens tone and strengthens barrier.
- Kojic Acid — reduces pigment production gently.
- Alpha Arbutin — lightens stubborn spots without irritation.
- Aloe Vera & Vitamin E — soothe and protect.
