Are there any natural remedies to dry legs. It usually happens whenever I finish shaving, my legs just feel really dry and flaky. Lotion doesn't really help too much, and it doesn't help calm down the itchiness either. Help?? ):

Baby oil aloe vera, I personally use baby lotion and it works great because it doesn't have all those harsh chemicals other lotions would have.

I exfoliate my legs before I shave.
I mix together some Brown Sugar, Honey, Olive Oil and some Lavender Oil for fragrance.
I soak my legs in warm water for five minutes then afterwards exfoliate in round, circular motions ( You don't have to - I just like to relax! )
I usually slather conditioner on and then shave. My legs are very soft afterwards.
You can apply an oil after or a cream. But exfoliating usually helps with those dry patches.

Omggg this may sound weirdd but what I've been doing to shave my legs is I take baby lotion (a lot of it) and rub it all over my legs and I start shaving. I keep a wash cloth next to me to clean off my razor after every 2 strokes or so. I had the same dry legs problem as you and this helped a lottt. and after your done shaving you legs, there's no need to wash your legs with water or anything because there hair free and moisturized already!
hope this helped!  :)

I had the same problem but I just share with oil now, and it helped soooo much!! You can use olive oil or coconut oil ( or both haha )

Get a shaving cream or use conditioner when you shave. aferwards rinse of with cold water. try putting a soothing oil like moringa oil, st. John's wort oil or apricot kernel oil.
