Dark beauty has its unique charm, undoubtedly. Dark patches? That’s a different story entirely. It’s a common beauty concern nowadays.
Dark patches marking the armpits, inner side of the thighs, private areas and buttocks make it look less attractive.
Buying expensive creams and skin-lightening solutions and resorting to chemical-based products fail to yield the desired effect. It not only makes a hole in our purses but, also aggravates the condition. Those areas on the body become even more coarse, darker, sore, irritated and, maybe, inflamed. It ruins the skin’s health.
Lots of fine nerves and lymphatic nodes are there in the armpit portion. Our private areas are highly sensitive. Applying anything that our hands can have access to is not a sensible idea ever.
I am sharing here the five easiest and most effective home remedies that can help lighten your dark patches on regular application.
Let’s gear directly to the homemade dark patch removal remedies.

Remedy No 1
Ingredients
1 teaspoon of Sugar Grains.
1 and 1/2 teaspoons of Coconut Oil.
Mix the two till 50% of the sugar grains dissolve. Apply the mixture on the dark skin of the underarms (armpit) or your private areas. Gently rub in a circular motion till the remaining granular substance dissolves and absorbs into the skin. Remember to massage very gently.
Wash off then using normal water. Apply a mild moisturiser. Do it twice a week.
Remedy No 2
Ingredients
1 tablespoon of Glycerine.
2 tablespoons of Honey.
Rice flour (as much is needed)
Mix all these ingredients to make a lump-free creamy paste. Apply the paste evenly on the darkened skin of your underarms and private areas. Keep it for 15 minutes till it becomes dry. Soak your fingers in normal water and rub very gently in a circular motion to scrub off the dead cells. Massage patiently for 10-15 minutes very gently. Use normal water to wash off it and pat it dry. You can apply a mild moisturizer afterwards that you normally use if you want.
Remedy No 3
Ingredients
5 teaspoons of Raw Milk
1 teaspoon of Baking Soda
Mix the ingredients thoroughly to make a paste. Bubbles will pop while making the paste but, there isn’t anything to worry about. It’s safe. Use a cotton ball or simply a cotton to apply to the affected area. Let it dry for 15 minutes. Then rinse off using regular water.
Remedy No 4
Ingredients
Castor Oil
Heat your teaspoon (before pouring the oil) over a direct flame. Now, pour castor oil on the heated spoon. Never directly heat the oil over a flame. Use the oil to rub your private parts and underarms. That’s all. No need to wash off. You can swab the area with a clean cloth if you feel uneasy.
Remedy No 5
Ingredients
1 teaspoon of Coconut Oil
1/2 teaspoon of Turmeric Powder
Mix the two to make a golden paste. The paste will feel a little grainy. Apply it on your armpit and other dark private parts. Gently massage for 2-3 minutes. Wash off or take a bath. Best to use it before taking a shower.
Each of these remedies will give the desired result. Remember, they are not my invented magic potions that will erase the dark marks in a single use. So, please exercise some patience.
Follow These Points for Better Results
These are to be used a maximum of 3 times a week except for remedy 4 and remedy 5, which you can use daily.
Post applications you don’t need to keep your hands up in the air like an umpire would do to announce a Sixer, over-the-boundary shot. Keep it as you would normally do.
Don’t spray deodorant and perfume directly on your underarms. It causes the darkening of the area. If possible, avoid them totally.
Don’t use soap to clean your underarms and dark private parts often. You should use soap to clean certain private parts ( hopefully, you realise which area I’m referring to!) at least once a day.
Wear little loosely fit clothes or garments more often that don’t keep hugging your private area or armpit skin for hours, causing friction and irritation.
Don’t shave your underarms, groin portion, the outer part of the vagina etc. Dry shaving is a big NO. Use a Trimmer for private areas and an Epilator for underarms. These are the best.
Never use hair removal cream or lotion. The hassle-free instant solution it may feel but, it darkness and irritates the skin.
If you have PCOD, Hormonal Imbalances, or any health issue that is causing the darkening of the body parts, please consult a good doctor. It needs proper treatment.
