Hey! So I used to have a somewhat similar problem. Everybody is different, but I found that switching to a single bladed safety razor helped me stop breaking out when shaving my face and neck. My understanding of it is that the more blades on a razor, the "closer" the shave. The problem with this is that if your shave is too "close" your razor can actually shave your hair to below your skin line. The hair then has to grow back out from underneath the skin line, and sometimes has trouble, resulting in ingrown hairs, razor burn, and the like.
Some things I would try:
-Switching razors: If not a safety razor (which is a pretty big switch), try switching to a double bladed razor, maybe something like This.
-Changing how you shave: Try shaving more lightly. Try to not press down too hard on your skin when you shave. On the first pass ALWAYS shave with the grain of your hair.
-Using shaving cream: From your post it sounds like you use normal hand/body soap to shave your face. I would highly recommend against that. Not only is it not great for lubrication, it also dries out your skin, and results in your pores overproducing oil, eventually leading to greasier skin. Buy some shaving cream or shaving soap. I personally use Gillette shaving cream for sensitive skin. Here's a pack of six, so don't buy this at first, just buy a single one to test it out and see if it works well for you, but know that you can buy this stuff in bulk online and can cheaply get enough to last you for years.
I hope all that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
Go to your local drug store and buy a Gilette Mach3 or similar and some shaving gel or cream. You can also get some aftershave lotion; personally I've never found one I really like so I usually go without it, but it can help with irritation or dryness.
With your skin wet, squirt some gel into your hand and rub it onto your face. It will lather or foam up a bit. Don't be shy here, get a good amount on.
Take the razor and drag it slowly across your skin along the direction of hair growth. There will be a good bit of shaving cream and hair stuck to the razor after each stroke, so rinse it off frequently. I find I usually have to use my finger to push some of the hair out from between the blades. Repeat until your face is clean. You can also pull the razor against the grain for a closer shave, but you're more likely to cut yourself doing this. I'd recommend shaving along the grain for the first few times until you get a feel for it.
If you do cut yourself, just tear off a tiny piece of toilet paper and stick it to the cut.
When you're done, dry off with a towel and apply aftershave if you want. Make sure you dry off your razor blades too, it will help them stay sharp and last longer. Replace the blade whenever shaving becomes more difficult or painful, roughly every couple of weeks depending how often you need to shave.
Good luck! When you're ready for more advanced technique, check out /r/wicked_edge.
It's this one. Don't be put off by the price, that's a pack of six, if you're in the US, Walmart should have it.
Red/pinkish pigment on and around nose, under eyes and chin area. palms of my hands have been red/pink too for as long as I can remember so wondering if it could just be the way my skin is or something. It also might get worse as weather gets colder but I can't say for sure.

Skin type: No clue. I have a dry/flaky scalp if I don't use head an shoulders a few times a week though.
Aloe gels are made by Clinique as well as Edge.

Bit pricey though.
Gillette's Satin Care line also has Aloe. They're much more reasonable.
Gillette's Pure shaving cream has Aloe too

Gillette even has Sensitive gel with Aloe in tube form that's intended for wetshavers. It's meant to be applied with a brush. It's marketed in Asia, but should be available on Amazon/eBay.
