What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage
For best results, pair with The Kaia Naturals Takesumi Bright Kojic Acid Brightening Body Bar Apply to clean, dry underarms daily. For faster brightening results use the takesumi kojic acid brightening body bar prior to deodorant application.
Can also be used on the body following the kojic acid body bar in areas with dark spot pigmentation, areas that experience chafing and friction and to soothe and calm inflammation and irritation. Can be used on back and chest blemish marks, inner thighs, elbows and knees and on bug bites
Once dark spots are minimized, continue to use the deodorant for lasting results.
Do not use after shaving or waxing. Always shave at night and allow the skin to calm down before applying deodorant.
Some may notice slight redness or discomfort after using the deodorant for the first time. In order to ensure you can use the formula test the deodorant on your forearm for twenty-four hours before applying it on your underarms. Look out for any unusual reactions. Note: The longer the pigmentation has been present the longer it will take to see significant improvement. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a result of irritation. Brightening treatments will be unsuccessful until underlying cause of inflammation has been addressed.
For speed in brightening, use the takesumi brightening bar with an exfoliating brush prior to deodorant application.
