Hey gang.. this is super embarassing. Ive done a search online but havent been very satisfied with what Ive found. I also set an appt w/ my dermatologist in a few weeks but I wanted to get you guys' input if possible.

I have very dark underarms. Its very very very noticeable (especially since Im so light). Theyre basically black, just so you can understand what Im dealing w/. Ive always shaved, which I read I should stop doing and start waxing as it helps remove dead skin, etc (speaking of, can neone reccoment a good waxing kit?!?). But is there something I can do to lighten these pits?? Its getting warm and I hate having to wear sleeves in the summer.. Im gonna see if my derm. can give me some kinda of retin a treatment or something to help. But in the meantime Im just looking for ideas, if you guys have them.

TIA...
