Deodorants and alum crystals are often used to get rid of body odor and dark armpits. Deodorants come in different forms like stick and lotions. Applying deodorants prevent you from having bad odors. But during sweaty activities these substances don’t last. You’ll start to smell in the middle of your events. These deodorants leave stains on your clothes and cause dark armpits too depending on the chemicals present. Here is a tip if someone would like to go for organics for their armpits. I am referring to the use of calamansi. How to use kalamansi? After taking a bath, apply the juice extract from kalamansi on your armpits. Leave it there for some minutes and you're done. You'll see a big difference after a week.

Yup it's true my aunt also uses calamansi toner for her armpit and it's really white i'm jealous :( hahaha... you must use it while taking a bath and you should rinse it because calamansi is an acid and might erode your skin.

i've heard that calamansi extract also helps in whitening the armpits. i just used the ready made tawas for armpits which is bought in store.i don't use roll on deodorant because it is the reason why i've got black stained in my armpit and it sticks to clothes.

Hi flagella, this is the first time ever I heard about calamansi extract for body odor mostly in armpit. Tawas and other deodorant that can be bought in supermarket are I knew for remedy in body odors. Thank for the tips, I'm gonna try to use it.

this is a one nice post you got their friend. anyways, i havent tried it but already heard abut it long time ago about calamansi on armpits. but i never did try it. even deodorants or tawas, i havent tried one. well, maybe its in my family, we really dont have armpits odor, just a simple sweat odor on armpits but not that gross that sticks on clothes odor and that we cant really helped the odor. but i like that part on having white armpits, my armpit is not dark but not so white too. ill try it as soon as possible. lol! thanks friend jhelai
