I leave the bathroom door open when I shower so it doesn't fog up, then I close it to keep drafts off as I shave. I also do the whole routine, shower and shave in the evening especially if I have to get up early.

The only thing special about the steamed towel is that the water is usually just a little hotter than you can stand to handle, that way it is perfect by the time it hits your face. I do enjoy a hot towel wrap and shave every so often, it's usually for and especially pampering shaving experience though. I wouldn't want to have to go through the whole ritual every day. If I hurry it only takes a couple of minutes longer to shower than do a proper hot towel treatment.
