Color of your armpit skin. Is it darker than your face? email this discussion to a friend?

I just noticed this today after shaving my armpits. My facial skin is a tone darker than everywhere else in my body, and my armpit is about the same color as my face. I don't know if you get what I mean but isn't that strange? My armpit is less exposed than my face, so how come it's the same color? I don't use anti UV unless in summer.

Hmmm, I never look at my armpit and compare it to my skin.
I don't know. My face skin is always lite, I use self tanning lotion, so I can not compare it now.....

:):) so it's the same color now because you are using self tanning

I didn't look....kind of I am not curious....I rather look at my wrinkles and compare it to my smooth skin on my arms...he, he

I never really noticed that, and I do not intend to. I gather this is one of those questions that someone might consider embarrassing to say, "I checked and it is lighter or darker or the same." I do not have my computer in my washroom and if I did, you would know what I would be doing at the moment. My face is a little darker because it is exposed, but I suppose arm pits, could be the type of deodorant you use or the antiperspirant soap. Mind you if you have dark hair, sometimes the hair under your arms may be darker and that might contribute to your underarms being of darker shade then the rest. I do not shave, I use Neet or Nair because I have pimples under my arms. So it could also be your method of hair removal.

you could be right. I used Nair before but not satisfied with it. I should probably get another brand instead of shaving.

Hehehe..littlemel.. i feel really shy..lol.. I am fair in complexion and the color of my arm pit is dark grey in color. I love to have a clean shaved arm pit.

Take care friend:)

don' be shy. everyone has armpits, I'm sure we all shave it regularly I'm just curious why the skin is darker there while it is less exposed than my arm

I don't understand that either, since your underarm is not exposed to the elements. I looked at mine since reading this discussions, and mine are lighter than everywhere else that is exposed. My face is a little bit darker and so are my arms. Maybe it's just a shadow or something of that nature. This is a weird discussion and funny. I enjoyed it, thanks.


myLot reputation of 95/100. LittleMel (6484)   ranked 294 out of 35,431 in people  3 years ago

see, yours is lighter. maybe suspenseful is right, I shouldn't shave, I should use wax instead for removing hairs

woah that is a bit strange as to how they are the same colour. my armpit is actually more whiter than my face as i dont ever expose it to the sun.


myLot reputation of 95/100. LittleMel (6484)   ranked 294 out of 35,431 in people  2 years ago

it supposed to be whiter so now I am using wax that lasts longer
