Just some hot water in a basin, drip a towel in and press it to your face, so it barely doesnt burn.

If you have no peeling at hand you can also slightly rub the towel from the previous step.\r\n\r\nI shave in 2 steps. One round along the growth and afterwards another round against the growth. With growth is easier on the skin, but leaves a lot stubble, so the first round is to get the most off to reduce the strain on the skin in round 2. The only place I dont go against the growth is above my lip, because Its so wobbly and I got some scars from trying.

The really cheap ones just have a screw off head, while the slightly nicer ones open up at the top like a butterfly. These are much easier to use and is what I'd recommend. You can find the handles on Amazon for about ~$10.\r\n\r\nAs for blades, I use the brand Astra. They are a great balance between cost and quality.
