Elbow: Do you steer clear of sleeveless clothes to hide your dark underarms? You don’t need to worry any more as there are many home remedies to lighten underarms. But you should also take a few precautions for a hygienic lifestyle. Do not rely on excessive usage of hair removing creams or deodorants that contain alcohol. Cover your skin before you step out as exposure to ultra-violet rays are harmful for your skin. Besides, it is also important to get rid of dead skin cells.
