    :help

    Hi ladies,
    i am facing a very common but serious problem of my vaginal area n underarms turning black due to shaving of the area + thighs ....... Can anyone of you please suggest some creams/lotions/gels/medicines to re-store the original skin colour ?

    Thanks,
    mams

    HI mams

    I too posted the same question for my underarms to a beautician and she said we can apply candid-b cream for these dark areas and also for the thighs...not sure whether the same could be used for the vaginal areas...yet to try the cream

    Hey, I stopped using deodorant with aluminum for underarms. Also for vaginal areas and thighs, wax and exfoliate regularly - washcloth rough in circles, salt/sugar scrubs, besan flour (thick with water) put it on your skin, let dry, and in circles scrub off. Skin needs to breathe and ingrowns and toxins need to come out.

    Also, some of that might be hormonal - are you on any oral contraceptives? birth control? soy products?

    I apply a mix of lemon juice,honey(just few drops), curd and Ravai(Its a tamil word, dunno wat its called in ur place) or u can use Oats (powdered) and leave it for 10mins. Scrub it off before bath and bath as usual. Once u finish ur bath, dry the areas and apply coconut oil on it.

    This works!!

    I too face the same problem.. Darkness in underarms and vagina area...

    Few suggested to wax the underarms.. to reduce darkness but i feel its deadly pain to wax vaginal area as its more delicate than under arms...


    whatever may be the cream i feel its not safe to use in vaginal area without doctor's prescription. Long back i was using hair removal cream but one doctor told me not to use any type of cream in the vaginal area as there are more chances for the cream to get inside and cause some other problem.
