I noticed metal becomes hydrophobic when it's cold. I decided to try something. I warmed my face with warm/hotish water, spread the fat based soap and then brushed over it, I then dipped my razor in ice water and proceeded to shave, periodically dipping my razor back in the ice when the resistance started to increase, it's the smoothest shave I've ever had. I'm pretty sure I could've done 5 passes without getting razor burn.
I then washed my face with warm/hotish water to remove the fat/soap and then cold water as I usually would.
I'm a bit of a loner so maybe this isn't news to you guys?
