For a few months now, I've been moisturising all over my body every day. This has helped my skin to tone up, but I've noticed that I'm having to shave my legs more often than before. I've also got hairy thighs, which I didn't have before (I usually shave just up to the knee). I can only think that applying the moisturising cream is stimulating the hairs to grow faster. Has anyone else experienced this?

not with my body hair (although I'm a bit hairy anyway...) but depending on whats in your moisturizer, like some oils and herbals, it could be conditioning the hair and stimulating growth.
Yes I believe it's possible. The pressure of your hands, when you moisturise, stimulates blood flow therefor bringing more oxygen to the hairfolicle. I totally believe it's possible
Are you drinking vitamins or mineral supplements? This also could be speeding the process. Also you mentioned that your skin toned up. What brand of moisturizer are you using?
I've been using Nivea Happy Time lotion, which contains bamboo milk (which is apparently an aphrodisiac!) It smells gorgeous and my skin's really toned up since I started using it.
