Okay, recently I have started shaving my legs and arm pits with out any soap water or anything and it is working actually really good. The reason I have been doing this is because especially in my arm pits I would get razor burn when I use soap and water or even shaving gel. So one day I read on the internet that someone shaved without any soap or water and it took away the bumps. And when I tried it I immediately saw an improvement under my arm pits and legs. Afterwards I put lotion on my legs and they have been looking great. My question is, is this bad for my skin? And if so, what can I do to reduce razor burn on my legs and especially under my arms? Thanks!

hey.

ouch! NEVER dry shave. it's really
bad for your skin. my aunt is
a nurse and she told me that a long
time ago. try using Skintimate
shaving cream, and get a
good razor like Venus or Schick.
if that doesn't work, then it's
probably the way you're shaving.
shave upwards on legs, and in all
directions on armpits. don't apply
too much pressure on the razor.
always make sure your legs and the
razor is wet before applying
shaving cream, and let the shaving
cream soak in your skin for about 1
minute. hope this helps and
good luck! ♥

P.S. another reason you might be getting razor burn is because you're not changing the blades on your razor or getting a new (disposable) one. always change blades or razors after 5 or 6 uses. make sure to moisturize your skin after you shave by putting lotion on your legs and baby powder on your armpits, and don't apply deodorant on your armpits right after you shave. they say to wait atleast 24 hours, because it irritates the skin.
