Simple ways to get rid of dark underarms:

Bleach with lemon:

Using natural products is the best idea. Nothing is as good bleach as lemon. Apart from its cleansing properties, it also has anti-septic and anti-bacterial properties. The acidic property in the fruit helps to lighten your skin and exfoliates dead skin cells. Take a slice of lemon and rub your underarms before you go to have bath. Apply some moisturizer after your bath. Try doing this regularly for effective results. Even you can mix lemon with a pinch of turmeric and honey for best results.

Milk and flour pack:

Milk has very good property of lightening the skin. Take wheat flour and mix it with milk. Apply this paste under your arms and allow it to dry. This mixture helps exfoliate the dead skin off and lightens skin. Wash it and dab your under arms with smooth towel.

Coconut oil:

Massage underarms for a few minutes with some warm coconut oil and leave it on for about half an hour. Go for a steam and then have a warm exfoliating bath with a good quality scrub. Doing this three to four times a week can show effective results. The Vitamin E in coconut oil can help lighten dark skin over time, so for best results apply it regularly.

Orange peel treatment:

Orange belongs to the family of lemon and it also holds similar bleaching properties as lemon. Dry the orange peel in shade and grind it into powder.  Add some rose water and milk to it and make it a thick paste. Apply this paste to your underarms and gently scrub the area for about 10 minutes. Wash it off with cold water. This scrub removes dead cells and bleaches your skin.
