and i didnt have any shaving cream left, so i just put water all over my legs and shaved them. but i thought that would be ok, because theres a strip of moisture next to the 6 blades...

now, there are red dots all over!! how did this happen? why??

was it because i didn't use shaving cream??? or is it because my legs are sesitive or something like that??

PLEASE HELP!!!!

10 points!!

Answer 1

Yes, it's because you didn't use shaving cream.

If you have dry/sensitive skin, shaving with just water and a moisture strip blade are not enough to moisten the skin enough not to get razor burn.

Answer 2

It's b/c you didn't use shaving cream. The cream is there to kind of moisturize your skin as you shave and make the blades glide easier... if you don't use any kind of slippery substance when you shave the blades are bound to aggravate your skin. If you don't have shaving cream at least use soap. Or do what I do every day, use hair gel. I kid you not, styling gel gives me a much better smoother shave than shaving cream.  

Answer 3

i dont even use shaving cream

i use conditioner

Answer 4

i think that happens to everyone.

it was probably because you didn't use soap, because thats what happens to me. your skin might be irritated.

the only thing you could try is probably just putting moisturizer on your legs.
