I've noticed my skin has started to darken on the area in which I shave, in particular the neck region. Is this a pressure issue, and if so is there a some kind of cream to even out a skin tone?
Too much pressure?

I think that somebody else recently posted a similar problem with their skin darkening where they shaved. I think they were of African-American descent, and if you are, too, your problem may have the same cause (I don't remember what the cause was, though). I've never heard of anybody of European-American descent having that problem, but it's probably happened. Try to find that thread.

Thank you for thread link, some one recommended neosporin. I'll see how that works and go from there.
Never heard of this.

From what I've read it only effects African American skin. It could be from too many passes and frequent shaving. I came across this skin moisturizer for uneven tones by L'occitane. Its pricey so I'm definitely going to try some samplers first. http://usa.loccitane.com/uneven-skin-tone,82,1,29420,0.htm
Anything that works haha.
