I just found a cystic bump under my armpit from using native so i’ll try this thanks for the informative video
great video. Commenting for the algorithm, I’ve done the detox but now i’m trying this!!
Love love these videos 👌🏽
I love the way you speak. you are so straight to the point and really show us the truth. Best believe i’m getting a bottle sis🤪😂
haha ! thank you 🤍 make sure to purge before jumping to the toner so prevent irritation .
Desde el fondo de mi corazón, quiero decir gracias. Este ha sido un problema recurrente y desde que vi tu video, intenté el ácido glicolico y h sido un maravilla. Muchas , muchas gracias. Te mando un abrazo desde Colombia!
hola chula , que bueno que te sirvió este método . Me dio mucho gusto saber que me viste desde colombia ! besos y abrazos
Thank you for sharing your experience it was so helpful cuz i tried 3 natural deodorant and it didn’t work so i’m searching for an alternative.
Hon purchase chlorophyll pills take 1-2 a day and make this cleanse drink. One half pineapple, 1 half cucumber, 3 stalks of celery, 2 inches of peeled ginger dice each item put in a blender with 2 cups of water strain it to separate the liquid from the pulp drink 8oz for 3 mornings or until its all gone remember it must be in the morning on an empty stomach you will notice after a couple days you will be ODOR FREE head to toe. I wish I knew this sooner. You can go days without any deodorant but use whatever natural deodorant you want. It works for men and women.
ALSO MY YOUNGER SISTER HAS HAD THE SAME DILEMA WITH HER LEFT ARMPIT SHES 15 YEARS YOUNG AND SHE HAS A CYST AS WELL AND NOW THEY TOLD US SHES GOIN TO HAVE SURGERY IN ABOUT A MONTH AND I WANT TO GET A SOLUTION BEFORE THAT HAPPENS I NEED ASSISTANCE FOR HER AND ALSO MAYBE FOR A DEODORANT,NATURAL OF COURSE FOR HER WHERE SHE DOESNT HAVE TO USE IT ALL THE TIME AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR VID
Alot of soaps that are scented as well tend to cause irritation well at least I've noticed that with me same with scented lotion as you mentioned I switched to non scented creams and non scented bar soaps
The ordinary niacinamide + zinc on top of the glycolic after it’s fully dry helps control moisture
wow your hair is amazing
No lie, I was a bit scared on trying this "hack" i have always been a little over weight and my underarms have always been on the darker side. I have been using this for 2 weeks and OMG!!!!!!!! Much lighter armpits!!! Of course I have waxing them as well... I can honestly say the odor has been reduced to like 95% I wish youtube could let you share before and after. I always hated a regular deodorant. I would take showers and I couldnt remove it 100% and this has helped so so much!!!! I want to cry🥺
Do you use it daily?
1. Does it helps with hyperpigmentation and smells?
2. How many times should I apply it?
I really want to try it.
Btw, you are so beautiful ❤
No one is going to talk about how smooth & silky her hair looks! New video idea
thank you babe ! i can def do that it all goes down to natural oils and good care habits 🌟
okay so I was a bit skeptical using this because I expected it not to work. before I only used Dove deodorant for my underarms and I've noticed that the product had built up in my armpits causing my armpits to darken and smell extremely bad.
I've used The Ordinary glycolic acid (7%) on my underarms at the start of December 2021 so it has been a month since I've started using it once a day after my showers and I must say... YES, it does work!
A little over a week of using it, my armpits sweat but do not stink. I can confidently caress my armpits, smell it and I can't smell a thing. It has worked wonders on me so I hope it does for all of you as well!
Do you use any moisturizer before or after the glycolid acid? :) or just pure?
@@aura53 I just use the glycolic acid and it works well. I find that using a mosturizer is too much on my armpits, but better when I use it for my face
@@jjiminyg4957 thank you!! And have your armpits started to light up a bit with the glycolic acid?
@@aura53 as for lightening, it's smoother but not lighter but I think it's because of my weight issues so please don't take my word for it in regards to that
@@jjiminyg4957 thank you ♡
Hi ! Can I use glycolic acid on the armpit twice a day (morning and night)?
I thought I was the only one that did this, and yes it works. It also helps with smoothness and ingrown hairs. I got the idea from Lume deodorant which uses Mandelic acid to control odor (Lume does work, but I developed a skin sensitivity, it was bad). So now I use the Ordinary glycolic toner as a body "deodorant" if you will, and it works and gets rid of chicken skin aka keratosis pilaris.
It gets rid of KP on what areas of the body? legs? How often do you use it for KP?
@@harv2712 I have this condition on my arms and the back of my thighs, and I used the toner on those areas and within a handful of days.
Hello
Does this work even after a work out? Or swimming? Or do you need to apply again after a workout? Also have you tried nuud? I keep seeing those ads abt it. And do you still apply it everyday or now you only apply it if you need a refresher? Thanks
You're so pretty! 💜🥰
hey! how many times a week should the be used if I am working on lightening my under arms
could i just stop using deodorant and go straight to glycolic acid? or should i still detox? and what did use you to smell good while you were transitioning?
how many times a week do you use this?
your hair is look healthy what you using for it plz??
I used native brand but since i work from home,i only use deo whenever i have to go out and whenever i go out first thing i do is wiping my underarm for any residue 👍🏼
i started to use little seed farm recently and i like it so far ! incase u want another natural option .
@@stephxluvv Awesome thnx
Can I use it for my knees?
Does it work with darkness
Does it work for men as well
Where to buy it?
This is honestly the best skincare thing I've done in years. I literally do not smell at all. Usually, I'd have to ditch my top after a long day at college+work because I could smell the sweat.
Nowadays, I don't smell. Like, at all! And the best of it all is that it doesn't have any fragrance either, so you're not smelling of like any other scent. You just don't smell at all. Just of the cologne you choose to wear that day. It's brilliant.
The only thing I'd warn you about is if you're going to shave/wax your armpits, don't apply this right after. Shave or wax yourself at night and then test it in the morning. Or better, wax or shave on a day you know you won't be going out. That way, you're allowing your skin to heal before applying the glycolic acid.
I apply it with small spray bottle. A couple spritz on either pits and then softly massage it in. Boom. You're good to go.
Hey! quick question, Did it help with hyperpigmentation?
How often you use it?
@@boshramoustafa1912 I did, lmao. I noticed recently that my armpits look lighter.
@@kozmoslol I use it right after showering and I'd say everyday. It works for me. My skin can tolerate it and I don't smell. Not of sweat, not of some nasty scent. I was sick of having too many scents going on. I use fragrance for that, I don't need all my products to be scented.
@@kozmoslol I would say that if you find that your armpits can't tolerate regular use like that, it's still a pretty good product to use every other day, just to keep bacteria at bay while giving your skin a break. Or dilute it, maybe?
I will say this. I used to feel like not even showering got rid of a certain degree of sweat smell when I used regular deodorants, but now I don't have that issue anymore.
so ik you don’t use it anymore but whn you did, did u use it everyday?
does glycolid acid cause white deodorant stains on black clothing?
Yesterday I saw a video of a derm talking about this “hack” and it was so interesting, all this time ai couldve used my skincare in my armpits haha and I didnt know that the odor was caused by a bacteria
i haven’t used deodorant in about a year ! I am natural based and only use this toner on the days i need a refresh. It’s difficult at first with the stinky BO but worth it! watch my detox video if you would like to start this journey 🤍
@@stephxluvv did it turned your armpit dark over the period?
@@athiraathizzz3505 Hey there ,
It’s been 2+ years and they haven’t gotten dark . I laser which helps with preventing darkness .
@@stephxluvv thanks for the quick reply
so perfect
thank you !
Just got my glycolic acid today! I also have horrible cystic acne in my underarms after using natural deodorant so I'm hoping this works :)
Make sure not to use it too often as it will cause irritation , do the purge and also use a natural deodorant ( little seed is my fave ) any ? lmk 🤍
Hi, I have 2 questions. I watched both videos. 1) I noticed in this video you said they got raw and hurt. Was that from using the clay to detox? That scares me lol but I really wanna do the detox. 2) You didn’t mention the aloe in this one, did you stop using that? Thank you for your videos! 💜
hello there !
so 1) they naturally will purge which causes the skin to feel this way . so this was the natural effect of cleaning ur pores from the bacteria . the clay helps cool and soothe the purging as well as the stink! so the mask is helpful in the process . 2) yes i stopped once i was done with the detox which for me was about 2 weeks of being smelly , we are all diff in BO so it varies . u can always use aloe to help since it’s a healing plant for any skin issue so feel free to apply when u want.
today i don’t use any deodorant i only use the toner when i need a refresher .
@@stephxluvv thank you so much!
Been using this for about a week now and there’s a red ring developing around my armpits. This happened to me before with natural deodorants that had baking soda in it, but the baking soda was bad, like a burn. The redness from the glycolic acid feels like nothing so far, but I have a feeling my pits are on their way to becoming irritated.
Try using it every other day
hey there sorry for the late reply . I too agree this should only be used after purging your armpits . Making sure you purge before you switch to natural deodorant or the toner . I purged for 2 weeks and it’s a very stinky process but after you only need to apply the toner as needed . This red ring can be your armpit feeling raw and detoxing so just stick to nothing at all until your armpits don’t smell .
How is it going now? My underarm skin too is so sensitive
You’re not supposed to use chemical exfoliants every day because it’s literally turning over your cells and needs time to process. Even if you get facials with glycolic acid they are hesitant to do it weekly instead of biweekly or longer
@@organicallyhannah yess i only use the toner for days i sense the smell or every other day as a refresh
You are so pretty 💗
thank you Emerald🤍🤍
Thank you for this video ihave pimples also and it hurts painful I hope in one month they go away.
Of course
I would definitely reach out to a dermatologist to help if that is uncomfortable. Remember not to over do it and cause irritation .
So is rose water good too since it's a face toner ?
Thanks!
hope it’s useful to you 🤍
I have tried the baking soda method once to go aluminum free and I was to harsh on my underarms
hey there ! i did a purge before i used the toner. i have a video on my detox ~ i first stopped using aluminum ,used the aztec clay mask for weekly help and then made the jump to toner and i’m now deodorant free .
@@stephxluvv okay thank you very much :) I'll try it I've heard great things about the Aztec clay mask but haven't tried it but I will :)
@@GabyG48 i def felt relive using it ! but only limit to using it once a week because it is drying . the purge is STINKY but def worth it 🤍 any ? lmk
baking soda works, but you need to apply once your underarms are completely dry. if you put on if it’s a little wet you will feel uncomfortable because it will feel like sand cutting your skin.
Can you use everyday on skin (face and underarms specifically)?
hey there ! so you can use it on your face daily as long as your skin can take it . I would start off slow once every other day and see how it takes . i use it only underarm specifically and at times face when i feel oily ~ this toner is to kill bad bacteria .
old spice is an aluminum free deodorant and it works
Did you detox before using this product or is it safe to use right away after using traditional deodorant?
Hey there , I purged before using the toner . Took about 2 weeks of detox before .
I wanted a cheaper alternative to lume and started using my glycolic toner as my deodorant and it works all day on my underarms. Trying to figure out how to make a cream for my groin.
How much did u buy Glycolic acid? And do u leave it the acid for the whole day or u wash it off after like a few minutes?
@@jonsart5643 less than $20
Milk of Magnesia will last for days on underarms.
@@jonsart5643 the ordinary toner 8 bucks
@@bella50008 doesn't that flake on to the clothes
It works on eliminating underarm odors but it darken my arm.
yess this works for odor and bacteria not perspiration or lightening . The darkness may have been caused by using the toner too much . I only use it once a day or every other day to refresh my underarm . On the daily I use a natural deodorant with no aluminum . (little seed brand)
Do you have to wash it? or you can leave it on through the day
@@B-wj7pr thanks you
you just leave it ! and if u feel stinky or just need a refresh wipe again 👌🏼 for face u follow with a moisturizer no washing it off .
Wait so I can’t use this and then wear Normal deodorant? Lmao like after you applied this ? I searched how to lighten armpits and this came up 🤣
hey! so this is to detox not lighten 🤍 this would help for when u want to switch from aluminum based to natural . i’ll be posting about lightening soon👏🏼
@@stephxluvv for how long
@@jadalynanaya568 i detoxed for two weeks , didn’t use anything and let my armpits purge it’s very SMELLY as the toxins leave ur body . i have a video on purging as well
I know this might be only for females but it’s interesting 😁
Great vid like always steff !🙌🏽
No ,
my brother is doing the same 🤍 watch my first vid to find out how to detox before natural deodorant ✊🏼 once u are done purging use this !
Everyone has armpits!!!!
Nothing hotter then a man (or anyone!) that has amazing hygiene, never stop being youself Mister!!
Do you use glycolic acid everyday? Once acday?
Hello! i don’t use it daily , only when i need to refresh my under arm. When i go to the gym i use the toner then aluminum free deodorant as well
Do you use it every day?
i don’t use anything anymore , i am all natural and when i need a refresher i use the toner .
i just started with the aluminum free deodorant my armpit sweated more and i did get a pimple aswell
did you have a purge before you jumped to aluminum free? this helps with the smell but not the perspiration
no i didn’t purge also do i need to purge before going into glycolic acid??
do I still need to do the detox to use the acid?
yess! if u jump straight to the toner u will purge and irritate at the same time ans it will be painful . when i was on detox i wasn’t using anything on my underarms except the aztec clay once a week or when needed .
@@stephxluvv what is this detox?
what if you have armpit hair?
You can use it with hair 👌🏼 this helps with the smell of ur underarms
Can we use it on bikini area aswell?
no , this is to kill bad bacteria . It would irritate the bikini area
@@stephxluvv ok thankyou for replying!
This burned my pits after about a week.
Does it work on very smelly armpits ?
hello there ! i first stopped using aluminum based deodorant, and went on a purge i have a detox video too on how i used the aztec clay mask for help . i am now deodorant free and only use this toner on days i need a refresher!
Try using this or a lemon or lime juice ...let it dry then apply Milk of Magnesia (original flavor0. You will be fresh for days before even needing another shower.
So it hurts at first ?
hello there , so first u need to purge ur armpit i have a video on that as well . toner would be after the purge is done and i now use natural balm and toner when needed . i’ll be making a new video soon
@@stephxluvv thank you
What is the brand of your glycolic acid
The ordinary glycolic acid
@@sunsuna972 your armpit still has dark shadows. I did my research and found a better deodorant and at the same time whitener.
Can you use deodorant on top of this?
hey there sorry for the late reply , I do use little seeds deodorant . Just make sure your deodorant is aluminum free and you should be okay 🤍
Glycolic acid has been the best deodorant for me ever. I don't stink no more even after a sweaty workout.
yess ! the best honestly
Does it work on the first day of use?? If not while waiting for results in order to prevent BO i can use deodorant after applying this acid?? As I go to work and applying this for the first time without deo if ah happened to smell really bad den.
@@lenadelraylove8774 Yes, it worked immediately for me.
aluminum isnt even bad, company’s just use that as a marketing scheme. same with parabens .
my underarm does feel different now that i have changed deodorants wether it’s scheme or not it does affect the body when we block the pores with aluminum based instead of being more natural based . u should try to purge so u can tell the diff 👌🏼

You`re actually spreading misinformation! This can be dangerous for many people in the long run!!
it’s all about skin texture and how much it is used . I’ve been using this technique for 3 years now and have fellow peers who are doing the same . Researching and trial and error is needed to see if this is a fit for you .
