    Default glycerin before bed

    I started putting a little glycerin on my face before bed. I am not sure if I am spinning my wheels or not, but it seems I get a little bit smoother shave in the morning. Anyone else do this?

    Yeah. I do vitamin E oil. Makes a big difference.

    No exactly the same, but sometimes when I had to shave twice in a day or have some minor skin irritations after shaving, I put Penaten or similar baby cream on my face before I go to bed.

    These creams often contain zinc and zinc promotes healing.

    The white cream makes me initially look like a Japanese Kabuki actor, but the skin feels refreshed the next morning.

    I use a little coconut oil as it seems to soften the hair and makes for a smoother shave.

    I soak my pillow case in a mixture of Break Free CLP, Eezox, and Quick Release gun and knife lubricants and then sleep on that at night. I'm one slick-looking dude in the morning! I have to make sure to sleep on both sides of my face or my shaves tend to be uneven.

    Now THAT seems likely!

    I was almost impressed by this until I realized you didn't load your pillow with Feather Blades and shave while you were asleep.
