Black Underarm Prevention
Who doesn’t like to have white underarm here? We all love it. However, at least once in our life time, we, women, get some problems about having awful black underarm. I’m here to help you out in a more inexpensive way.
Avoid using too much deodorant. I know. It’s going to be impossible not to use any deodorants or antiperspirants since the first day we have entered the puberty stage, but this is one of the biggest reasons why you get black underarm. I just want you to realize the fact here. As far as I know, there are no deodorants available in your favorite store that could whiten your underarm.
I’ve been using an alternative. It’s out in the market and it’s called, Milcu. It is an underarm and foot deodorant powder. It costs 40.75 pesos only. But sad to say, if you do perspire a lot, specially, if it is so hot and you are outside of the house, Milcu will not be able to handle it.
I still would recommend you to use your favorite deodorant. Don’t freak out, I also use antiperspirant/deodorant if I really need it. I just have to make sure at the end of the day, I wash my underarms thoroughly. You might want to buy Glutathione soap. I’m using the one with the red X, white box. You can buy it at Watson’s. It costs 120 pesos.
Oh btw, I posted a picture. That’s me. Unphotoshopped underarm. lol. If you have some questions, just let me know. Or if you also have some tips to share, post them away. I would love to try them out but be sure it’s no expensive. I don’t have a budget for laser thing or whatever. lol.
Take care and thank you for reading.
Share the Love

Waahh. Dark underarms! Try ko nga yang product na yan, baka magwork sa kin. Thanks for the tip
September 20th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
It’s been quite a long time since I’ve used a deodorant. Not only does it darken your underarm, but it also stains the armpit area of tee shirts. One reason why I don’t use fitted shirts especially when it’s uber hot.
October 24th, 2008 at 12:40 pm
what if you have dark underarms? can it remove by glutathione soap? how can dark underarms turned white? any tips?
October 24th, 2008 at 12:43 pm
thanks…send me via emails…thanks so much
November 1st, 2008 at 10:45 am
sad to say that my younger sister was able to figure out of what to do when it comes to “hair on your pits problem” my sister suggest not to pull it… if you see one leave it alone. Do not do anything about it. anyway its too late for me but it works for her… so goodluck to you guys!!!
November 3rd, 2008 at 9:27 pm
i have a black underarm… and i always sweat alot cause i always get tensed…. please help me
November 13th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
anne,
Your story makes it the two of us. You’re not the only one w/ underarm dilemma. I would suggest to stop using your deodorant. Since I start using MILCU my underarm looks lighter “thanks to you MILCU” and since I have this so-called Hyperhidrosis I also used Drysol as recommended by my Doctor. It helps a lot. But to be honest MILCU doesnt work well without my Drysol. Worst thing about deodorant is the smell at the end of the day… if you sweat a lot, the sticky feeling and the nasty stain uh-huh. BOTOX works too but very expensive I wouldnt suggest to use it unless you have lots of money it wouldnt be a problem…
November 22nd, 2008 at 7:02 pm
thanks fer the tips
i apply a lot of deodorant thaT cause my underarm dark.
that milcu thing, i’m interested with that
can milcu can prevent the body odor thing ??
November 25th, 2008 at 10:50 am
YES, I GUARANTEE IT… I even told my sister about it and now she’s using it and my sister n law too. and well… too many people to mention lol.
December 18th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
i just bought milcu powder
and i wanna try that DRYSOL thing.
that could be a good alternative
thanks for sharing!:)
December 19th, 2008 at 10:14 am
Hi Jam, you are welcome.
December 22nd, 2008 at 1:07 pm

December 29th, 2008 at 12:40 am
just shave it everyday or every other day
February 26th, 2009 at 12:14 am
Where else can I get that soap?
March 2nd, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Hi there! My mom just bought Milcu (i was actually surprised that some of you uses it…i really thought it wouldn’t be effective)
I sweat a lot too and it’s really embarrassing…well, in highschool, i do not really sweat a lot…it just started recently (college) and I really hate it…
My underarms aren’t really black, but they are darker compared to the rest of my skin and i want a remedy for it! Hope Milcu would work…
I think I would continue to use deodorant but when I dont need to go out, I’ll rely on Milcu…hope this would really work..
March 19th, 2009 at 11:41 am
I also have that dark underarm problem and to think i thought i was the only one. well i might try MILCU but i sweat a lot and i mean a lot and i dont wanna smell so i dont know if ill be able to not wear antiperspirants. Does MILCU help fight against odor well?
March 19th, 2009 at 12:42 pm
Helo Diana, Milcu can prevent odor and perspiration. Give it a try!

November 20th, 2009 at 9:29 pm
Hiya sapphire, did you totally stop using any roll ons or deodorant stick? Or do you shave your armpits religiously? at least, may makikita kang pagbabago when you avoid using them kasi eh.
well, i guess, iba-iba nga ang mga tao. hehe.
November 28th, 2009 at 6:54 am
hi laarni, i have the same problem too! i always shave and sometimes prick my underarm, and i used rexona coz i think it cud whiten. ive tried different deodorant and anti perspirant but nothing happen. my prob is i have this dark spots on my underarms, maybe its because of plucking and shaving or something… help pls wat would you suggest.. tnx pls email me
November 28th, 2009 at 9:36 am
Carla, I would suggest to stop using deodorant/roll ons muna for at least two weeks, then see if there will be some changes. I use MILCU all the time as an alternative. I hope it works for you. Thank you for the drop by.
November 28th, 2009 at 11:14 am
@laarni, if u use milcu, it wud perspire u a lot db? or not? tnx for the reply
November 28th, 2009 at 11:15 am
@ laarni: and as i read those who leave a commnet hir, if u prick or shave it cud get ur underam dark or black, but its so embarassing that u have hairs on ur underarm
November 28th, 2009 at 11:17 am
@ laarni: and, can i use milcu everyday? khit nsa house lng ako?
November 29th, 2009 at 10:36 am
carla, maybe just don’t overdo the plucking and shaving. They can really darken. Personally, i did ~not~ stop doing them.
I don’t know if your body perspires a lot pero give the milcu a shot, bili ka muna kahit ung maliit lang and let’s see if it works.
November 29th, 2009 at 11:29 am
ah ok. now im trying the milcu. im also using it at night wen going to sleep. ?? yes i perspire a lot if im not using deo..
December 14th, 2009 at 3:05 pm
I am from Los Angeles, CA and have the same problem and i am actually interested in MILCU but you said it was worth 40.75 pesos
! Do you kno how much it is in dollars? Also if they sell it here in the US?
December 15th, 2009 at 10:27 pm
Hello gaby, it costs roughly $.90 to $1. I am not sure if this Milcu is available in your place though.
December 21st, 2009 at 8:20 am
hi agen.. i want to try underarm waxing because ders a parlor here that offers waxing and its not that xpensive so i want to try it, if i try this will the dark spots on my underarm would be gone? tnx

April 4th, 2010 at 3:41 pm
hello!
i tried using skin white for about 2 months now. My bff said it helps lightens my underarm skin but not the odor – if u sweat a lot. So what I do is made sure to clean my underarm and put deodorant at least 4 times a day. I know it’s a drag but… it helps.
April 8th, 2010 at 7:42 pm
i have dark underarms and i’ve tried almost EVRYTHING from lemons to papaya, to sugar to salt scrubbing to kojic acid soap, to glutathione, to deo whitening products. NONE of THEM worked! i am so desperate ive been on this problem for the past 15 years!
I have tried MILCU and it never works when you are the sweaty type like me. I smelled like onions in the middle of the day dammit!!! So I dropped the Milcu coz I dont want people talking abt an underarm smell in my cubicle!
so I had to try GODIVA unscented – doesnt work too!
I discovered this multiply site which sells underarm peeling set using Green peeling oil. I bought the product and will try tonight. Hope it works! coz if this doesnt, dang i dont know what the hell to do with my PITS!
April 29th, 2010 at 1:59 pm
@beeny, since u sweat a lot there is a non-prescription — prescription strength deodorant like Certain Dri and Secret. Try those it might help.
May 4th, 2010 at 9:32 am
I’d like to add something here I know this is for black underarm prevention discussion only but if u know anyone who needs help about BO in w/c they tried every deodorant known to man with no avail — u might wanna ask them if they have bacterial infection. Coz u see I know someone who have that same problem and one day her doctor prescribed her antibiotic for other medical reasons and that medicine helps get rid of her armpit odor.
July 8th, 2010 at 6:55 am
Hello Laarnaay,
I came across your blog while searching on the internet on how to prevent dark underarms. I live in Canada, and wonder whether Milcu powder as well as Glutathione soap are available here. Do you have any idea where it would be available?
Really appreciate if you could respond to this e-mail.
Many thanks,
Preetha.
July 8th, 2010 at 8:29 pm
Hi Preetha, I am not sure if MILCU is available in Canada. I’m here in the Philippines.
July 9th, 2010 at 6:42 pm
Hi Laarnaay, I just bought some Milcu for my underarms but have not received it yet however before it arrives I want to make sure I get the current deo residue off my UA, any suggestions on a good way to get rid of built up deo residue? Also I noticed your UA are very smooth, I have what they call chicken skin (looks like a bunch of folds or wrinkles not smooth) how can I fix that will Milcu help with that as well?
Thanks in advance
July 12th, 2010 at 7:35 am
Hi Richa,
I would suggest that every time you go to sleep, wash your underarms with soap. Do that regularly.
As for chicken skin, avoid shaving as much as possible. Waxing is the best option I can give you.
Thank you for visiting!!!
July 12th, 2010 at 7:42 am
Hi Laarnaay,
Thanks for the advice, I do not shave much since I work from home but I still have the chicken skin so once I get the Milcu hopefully that will help as well. THX again.
July 16th, 2010 at 9:20 pm
Hi laarni! How long will it take Milcu to whiten your UA? I’ve been using it for a week already.
July 17th, 2010 at 9:44 am
Hiya Butterfly,
Roughly two weeks! If you stopped using deodorant/roll ons totally, you should see changes already at least within five days!
I hope it works for you as well.
July 31st, 2010 at 4:25 am
my underarm doesnt sweat but if i dont put on deodorant it will have bad odor, esp when i had just eaten foods with raw onion like burger, i started using deo 13 yrs ago which caused my dark underarm, but i cannot not use deo coz of the smell. i tried milcu but it did not eliminate the smell as if i applied nothing. right now, i am using dr.kaufman like i used to use before, and before i towell i put on more than a pinch of baking soda then damp dry with towel, its been 15days since and im satisfied, i bathe twice a day and wash my under arm at the middle of my work hours. have to this to avoid deo and bad odor. matrabaho,but no choice.
August 5th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
how bout rexona sensive skin light, does that really work?
August 5th, 2010 at 11:12 pm
Hello Gigi,
okie wait. I will get back to you soon. thank you for commenting.
August 26th, 2010 at 5:04 pm
hi do you wax? how often can i wax? because after 2 weeks hair is already growing. I swim therefore i need to wax or pluck often.
I also need advice in plucking.
