If you have good hot water, go ahead and large good amounts on your face prior to shaving, a hot shower before is optimal of course. It would help to use a good after shave for sure. The lotion should suffice for now, especially with the irritation. I hope the shaves get more comfy and fun as the days go by. Keep on rockin' in Iraq and put the bad peeps in their place! Jeremy-
