It’s The Pits
With an armpit clay mask trending on TikTock, and armpit acids becoming a thing, underarms are getting a lot of attention right now
For anyone who suffers from hyperhidrosis (and if you do you know what that is) then botox might be your saviour. Injected into the affected area, (a 15-minute procedure) botox will actively reduce the amount of sweating and the effects last up to eight months. Hyperhidrosis is available at specialist clinics regionwide.
1 Kopari Beauty’s Beach Deodorant, £9.50, is a soothing, aluminium and baking soda-free blend of coconut extracts that treats sensitive underarms to the utmost care. All natural, the fresh sea-scented non-toxic active blend helps ward off the bacteria that causes odour in the first place.
2 When you begin to use a natural deodorant for the first time, your body releases built-up toxins before stabilising, making you sweaty and uncomfortable, which is why this scrub uses gently exfoliating charcoal, antioxidant-rich green tea and soothing coconut to help unclog your pores and bring skin back into balance. Underarm Detox Scrub, £19 Pacifica
3 Apply DeoDoc Pre-Shave Intimate Oil, £28, in the shower to soften coarse hair, prevent shaving rash and create a protective barrier for the skin.
