I've never tried this, but I think I will now. I always figured it would inflame the face.
Hot shower, then ice water (it's winter here and the tap water is freezing) to shave and rinse with. Once I learned how to get a great shave with cold water I haven't used hot water since.
Time permitting, I wash my face first to remove oil, then hot microwaved towel 2 or 3 times..face is clean, pores are open and hairs standing straight up. Lather up, shave, hot rinse, hot towel 1 or 2 times followed by 100% pure Shea Butter, leaves my face as smooth and soft as baby butt cheeks!
I have tried this method of E45 cream & a cold towel a couple of times with really good results.
