So firstly, I HAVE to shave in the shower- I think my skin only gets soft and pliable enough to shave without hurting after I've been in steam for a while. I'm a girl but I use the "extra moisturizing" purple label Barbasol with Vitamin E in it now- I used to use this product from the brand Skintimates that had Vitamin E but also shea butter in it as well, and though it's targeted towards women, it REALLY works well for moisturizing so start with that! I also shave with a cream from Lush called "Ambrosia." This is it and it's great because it has oat milk in it, which REALLY prevents my skin from getting rough and bumpy from razorburn. Afterward, I use a Johnson & Johnson product with shea & cocoa butter in it to smooth my legs more, to keep from getting razor burn, and to prevent from getting stubbly longer. I think it all depends on what kind of skin you have- mine's combination, but on the dryer side, so I need a lot of products that have creams, milks, and butter lotions in them but with minimal fragrance because that causes irritation.
I think the hair removal cream you're thinking of is Nair- I wouldn't recommend it personally because it can burn your skin and it smells VERY strong and very much like rotten eggs/sulfur. I used it back when I very first started shaving my legs, and while it worked well and lasted a while, it ultimately wound up irritating my skin to the point where even wearing loose sweatpants burned. Everyone is different, though, so maybe it would work for you!
Also you might already know this, but clean your razor out with water while you're shaving because it'll take the buildup of hairs out and you'll get a closer, more even, less painful and less razorburn-y shave!
