What causes the ugly red spots that show up when you shave your legs and are there alllll the time? Its really gross and ugly looking.
Anyone got any advice on how to reduce the noticeability of them or even make them go away?
I tried lotion but.. that only lasts so long and definately doesnt make them GO AWAY.

I get exactly the same thing and I actually use foot moisturiser on my legs once in the morning and once when I go to bed at night. It clears it up in a couple of days completely but if I stop doing it at all, it comes back quick as a flash!

Make sure your razor isn't dull, that sometimes causes them too, and find a shaving cream that's compatible with your skin. But yes it's nothing to worry about, just irritated skin.
