2. Brown Sugar and Coconut Oil Scrub:

    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil

3. Baking Soda and Coconut Oil Scrub:

This option is suitable for those seeking a deeper cleanse. (Similar to the previous example, this is a common scrub adapted for underarms).

Important Considerations:

  • Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before applying any new scrub to your entire underarm area. This helps identify any potential allergic reactions.
  • Avoid using harsh scrubs or excessive scrubbing, which can irritate sensitive underarm skin.
  • Choose natural ingredients whenever possible to minimize the risk of chemical irritations.
  • If you have any underlying skin conditions, consult a dermatologist before trying any new skincare treatments.
