After shaving my legs, I usually end up with red bumps on my foot and legs and they itch like crazy, leaving ugly marks. Can someone plz help me out here, I have tried all sorts of things.

Forget shaving cremes! I hate them! One of the nicest things to use on your legs while shaving is baby oil. Just be very careful and shave slowly because it can be slippery (also put a towel down so none drips on the floor) After you are done, you're legs will be super smooth. I've never gone back to shaving creme or soap after trying baby oil.
Also, make sure you wash your hands after you put it on your legs (before you try to shave) so you can keep a good grip on the razor.

You shouldn't be getting red bumps after shaving. YOU MUST use shaving cream. Make sure your razor is good too. Afterwards rub your legs with baby oil. You'll be good to go.

Why they are doing that, is because you're probley not using soap or shaving cream. Without that you're legs will get dry causing you to itch. And to calm your itch down right now, try some loation. It might sting for a while but then it will help.

Use witch hazel on your legs after you're done, witch hazel can be bought at drugs stores for about $2.00
