Waxing is a quick way to get smooth skin, but it can leave your underarms red, bumpy, or even darker over time. The good news? You can soothe irritation and keep your skin bright with the right aftercare. Here’s your step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Cool the Skin Immediately
❔Why: Waxing opens pores and can cause inflammation.
❗️Do This:
-
Apply a cold compress or aloe vera gel for 10 minutes post-wax.
-
Avoid tight clothing to prevent friction.
Step 2: Soothe & Brighten with BnD Underarm & Armpit Cream
❔The Issue: Repeated waxing can lead to hyperpigmentation or rough texture.
❗️The Fix: BnD Underarm & Armpit Cream is a post-waxing hero. Its anti-inflammatory ingredients (like chamomile) calm redness, while kojic acid prevents dark spots from forming.
How to Use:
-
Wait 24 hours post-waxing (to avoid stinging).
-
Apply a thin layer twice daily for 7 days.
Step 3: Prevent Ingrown Hairs
❔Why: Ingrown hairs can worsen texture and discoloration.
❗️Do This:
-
Exfoliate gently with a soft washcloth 2x/week (start 3 days post-wax).
-
Avoid heavy deodorants until the skin heals.
💎Pro Tip: Use BnD Underarm Cream on bikini lines too! Its gentle formula works anywhere prone to post-wax irritation.
Key Ingredients Spotlight
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Blocks melanin production triggered by inflammation, stopping dark underarms before they start.
Glycyrrhiza Uralensis (Licorice) Root Extract: Brightens existing discoloration and evens skin tone with natural glabridin (a safer alternative to hydroquinone).
Why It Matters for Waxing:
Repeated waxing can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). These ingredients tackle both the cause (inflammation-triggered melanin) and visible marks, keeping underarms smooth and even-toned.
Waxing doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your skin’s brightness. With this routine, you’ll stay smooth and radiant.
