    Underarm whitening
    Hi guys! I'm having the same problem too because of shaving and tweezing.:( is this amira magic cream really work? I mean, how much and where can I buy it. Need urgent help! Thanks!

    Is what product similar to Amira Majic Cream?

    If you are getting hyperpigmentation from shaving and tweezing, why not start using a hair remover lotion? That way you just rinse off and your skin will react better to it.

    Thanks golden_Girl.. As of now, I'm thinking of going to godiva for proper treatment. Do you think it'll help?

    I don't know as I have read mixed reviews with the Godiva. I also read that many Asians and lighter have had success with this brand, but not many darker complexions. You can always try it and they may have samples too to see if it works for you.

    I couldn't find the ingredients posted on the eBay site so it's hard to tell what's in it that helps the skin to lighten. They say it was "dermatologically tested" so there should be no problem with them mentioning which dermatologist(s) and labs tested for it's effective lightening.

    Wow, there are so many asian exfoliating & lightening products... the US sux in comparison. :/

    Most likely it's because U.S. focuses on tanning and bronzing. But, I say whatever makes money why not qually serve both needs effectively so that others would not have to go to extremes.

    With the Skinwhite they say that it contains "Vitamin B5, B3 and E", and "RENEWWhite 3C that conditions skin through gentle micro-exfoliation then releases powerful agents that prevents skin darkening effectively whitening skin", whatever that means. Costs about 10 bucks. Nivea uses "2x licorice extract". So, I guess the only way to know for sure is for someone to try it out. I would think exfoliating and then a potent skin lightener would also lighten the underarms just as well as the knees and elbows?
