I keep seeing people asking questions on how they can lighten their dark armpit. I know how this can be embarrassing especially for people with light skin body. Underarm whitening is really easy as the skin in the armpit is very thin. Dark underarms are natural especially for people of Caribbean heritage. The skin in the armpit is very sensitive so one has to watch the product that we apply to it. Chemical peels are a no no when it comes to the armpit because the skin there is very sensitive and it can burn easily.
The skin in the armpit is almost similar to the skin on the neck as the skin in this is constantly constricted together. I would recommend only hydroquinone or kojic acid be used in whitening the armpit.
Three Products that would lighten the armpit.
Reviva Labs Brown Spot Skin Lightening Night Cream - Reviva labs lightening night cream is very effective in treating dark spot and it contains kojic acid so it is safe to use on the armpit unlike other reviva labs products that contains glyolic acid. Result should be see in as little as 2 weeks for underarm whitening

Clear Essence Maxi-Tone Skin Beautifying Milk - Clear essence maxitone helps to hydrate the skin and it can get rid of dark spots and brighten up dull skin. It works on all skin types to eliminate blemishes and it contains hydrouinone so it is very effective in underarm whitening.

Palmer's Skin Success Fade Cream - Palmer's fade cream is similar to clear essence cream but i think clear essence is more effective in lightning the skin because it also acts as an exfoliator. Palmer's is a popular and trusted brand it wouldn't hurt to try them out for underarm whitening
