Why Dark Spots Form on the Inner Thighs, Bikini Line & Underarms

Why Dark Spots Form on the Inner Thighs, Bikini Line & Underarms

Dark spots in intimate and high-friction areas are extremely common — and not a hygiene issue.

They’re caused by:

  • Friction and chafing
  • Ingrown hairs
  • Shaving and waxing trauma
  • Inflammation
  • Hormonal changes
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

The skin in these areas is thinner and more sensitive, meaning it reacts faster — and heals slower.

 

What makes it worse:

  • Aggressive scrubbing
  • Dull razors
  • Shaving without exfoliating
  • Dry, irritated skin

What helps:

 

✔ Gentle exfoliation

✔ Consistent moisture

✔ Soothing, skin-loving ingredients

✔ Patience and routine

At Her Chamber, we treat dark spots as a skin healing issue, not something to bleach or scrub away.

Glow comes from care — not force.
