Hey~

I been trying, for years, to lighten specifically my under arms and my inner thighs. I asked my dermatologist for help, and he said "Nothing will lighten them, sorry." Obviously I found that hard to believe.

My arm pitts are like, maybe 1-3 shades lighter than the rest of my body, and the same goes for my inner thighs. It's embarrassing.

I been lurking this board for awhile, and when I read about the "bleach pills" I jumped at the chance. Yes, I tried it for a few weeks, and my skin did get a shade lighter, but then I got a flu so I had to stop the pills and one thing lead to another and I stopped taking them so as a result my skin went back to it's original color, the pills didn't lighten my arm pitts though =.=

But my mom noticed my face and my body, was lighter. Not dramatically lighter, but a tab lighter.

Anyway I'll tell you the products I tried for my pitts =.=

Topiclear Classic Skin Lightening Cream = it has 2% Hydroquinone

I can't remember the names of the other products.
But, all in which had 2% Hydroquinone.

If anyone has any advice, I would really appreciate it. It's really painful emotionally =/

Er typo ! I meant, my arm pitts are darker than the rest of my body, not lighter ! Lighter is what I hope to achieve!

Have anyone seen Beyonce's pitts and thighs? They are A lot lighter than the rest of her body.

I always thought the Armpits and thighs and possibly chest would be lighter than the rest of the body.. because these areas of the body are usually the lightest or at least I thought so.

My armpits are the same colour as my chest and legs which are rather light olive.
