Does this work well for those with dark skin? Can it be used to lighten dark armpits too?

I have tried this and the product from real chemistry and like the 2nd one better. Cure irritated my skin a bit. The better one worked really well on an Indian friend of mine - she looked lighter. Good luck.

Im a African-American woman who has dark skin. I am the complexion of a dark chocolate bar. I love this product. It doesnt lighten but it does remove any dead skin. So if you have dry patches this is good to use this apply moisturizer/lotion and you will notice the difference. I have not used it on my armpits but it worked great on my neck, upper arms where i have keratosis marks and knees which are dark from sports. My mom has used it on her feet. I would imagine that it would help you get the dead skin off your armpits but it is not a bleaching cream or anything. More so helps to fade scars or remove the dead skin where you dark patches.

I don't think it will help to lighten skin that much but it help to make your skin softer, that is what I can say after used this product for a while. Hope this can help you!

This isn't whiter, this isn't going to lighten your skin, it suppose to take the dead skin off your face.

I actually don't recommend you to use it for delicate areas; I love it, but the thing is that it is more like massaging thing while being great "bath sponge". Armpits would be OK though.

I was using it less than that. I don't think it is really meant to lighten the skin. It does make the skin very soft. I won't purchase it again. I will tell you the Piona Bleaching cream works like magic. The one in the jar the large jar if you can afford it. It takes away all dark scars in a short amount of time. I am true to this Piona Bleaching cream on my 3rd jar.

No, Dudu Osun Black Soap WILL NOT lighten your skin. I'm Italian, I have a dark complexion and have been using this soap for years.There are soaps on the market formulated for whitening the skin and this is not one of them.

I'm light skinned and it works great However when my skin is darker in the summer due to tanning, the skin sensor automatically prevents the form system from operating. Hard to say how it would work for you, but that's been my experience.

Yes. We have seen the best results are the darker skin types (Black and Indian) especially for dark underarms.

Oh yeah! :) but I feel like non bronzers are better for starting a base tan, but this lotion will get you dark quick, that's my favorite part.

It's not painful or harmful on your skin, but it won't lighten your skin at all. It does lighten other body hair though, like eyebrows and arm hair.

I have been using it on my arms due to a scar I am trying to lighten, and it has not lightened the little wrist tattoo (black only non-colored tattoo) that I have. Hope that helps.

Yes, I'm a dark skin woman it works well for me, with any skin tone, you will have to make sure you put it in an area where you can hide the tape with your hair, I like it because it stays in place

Yes, I think it should - it will darken it a bit, although I think there is a "dark glow" or something like that available. I like it because it doesn't streak like tanning lotions.

I think you could use it on the arm, but the skin needs to be taunt. It might be painful. I think a laser tool like the Tria might be better if the hair is dark.

No, this won't work for African American skin. Theses devices target dark pigment and are dangerous for darker skin colors.

There's a new hair removal device called (Me My Elos Syneron PRO ULTRA) that works for darker skin tones. It's sold on Amazon!

The laser will not unlock on dark skin because it is not to be used on dark pigmented skin, I have a friend who used on neck where he has a tattoo and it literally burnt him, and actually extracted the ink out of his skin the burn was so deep, you may have to find other options for hair removal!

I'm not sure what type of skin you have, or if you're African American so it's difficult to give advice. However, I'm a caucasian woman and apply this product all over my face to help even my skin tone. The 'lightening' isn't dramatic and takes time to see a difference. You might want to use it all over and then add an extra dab on your dark spots. Good Luck!

If your skin is darker than a medium tone, I wouldn't suggest using this powder. It has a decent amount of pigment that will make dark skin look ashy. This powder acted as any regular powder for my fair skin. If you are looking for a product that acts as a translucent skin mattifier, I wouldn't suggest purchasing this item.
