Snow Storm Ruined My Shave!

[Luminose]

It's pretty cold here in New England and we got enough snow last night that I was up early this morning shoveling and snow blowing for a few hrs.

I'll tell you when the wind changed direction and the snow is thrown back into your face it's really wet and cold!

I didn't realize I had windburn on my face until I got out of the shower tonight and was about to start shaving. I grabbed my Black Beauty figuring I'd probably have to make adjustments on the fly but that didn't help to much.

I shave every night but tonight was just uncomfortable and by the second pass I decided to do a couple touch ups and call it quits..

Hopefully tomorrow night will be all better because if I don't get to shave before bed I know I'm not going to sleep well.

Due to your wind burn I would suggest using moisturizer on your face. Your face is most likely really dried out.

+1 on the moisturizer. When I lived in Ohio I would feed the horses and do some work then shower but the wind chill prettymuch ended any chance of a decent shave. Then I would put some cream on my face and later in the day all was normal. Good luck and hope you are safe after the storm.

You have pretty rough weather over there!

Good luck!

It was -3.5°F / -19.7°C when I got up this morning. I'm not even going out to my remote-start truck to plow my yard, it'll wait until tomorrow's warmer weather.
