So in my usual post shave ritual, I run "cold" water over my face to close up the pores. The problem is that I live in Florida, and the temperature of my cold water is 84 degrees Fahrenheit out of the tap. This really doesn't do the job too well.
I have recently tried taking one of those small freezer gel packs, and using that to gently rub on my face immediately after rinsing my face with some water. I have to say it feels really great, and it seems to take away some of the sensitivity that I usually have on my face post shave ( I have very sensitive skin). I would assume people living up north have cold enough water out of their taps to not need this, but for people with either warm "cold" water, or want to try a new post shave ritual, let me know if you try this out, I would love to know other peoples opinion of this. I figure I would share my experience.
