You're talking about when they wake up from a nightmare or something and throw water in their face in the bathroom to calm down? No, I don't know anyone that does that.

3 times a day. I don't know why. I think I am just easily impressionable from movies.

No it does. You have to do with in a dirty bathroom with a 5 oclock shadow though. Just like in the movies.

It takes a few tries but it should do something. You'll notice right away. Try varying the temperature of the water till you get the sweet spot, then post the results.

It's the unique shape of the shadow the Stonehenge produces everyday at 5 o'clock.

When it's a hot day and I'm at work, I splash water on my face to cool me down. That being said, I've never done it at home or anywhere else.

When you are ready, and trust me, you will know when you are ready. The key to a proper face splash is in the technique. Less dab, more slap. I mean, you really need to get that water into your face with some velocity. Don't do it with no emotion. You really have to put yourself into it. If water does not creep into your eyelids when contact is made, you did not slap hard enough. More power, more power! Once you have mastered that, you can try the face splash with rubbing alcohol. Although, you should do that with the supervision of professionals.

It's just one of those things they do in movies that you think makes sense, but it really doesn't. Like how thunder and lightning always happen at the same time in movies, even though they never do in real life.

I do it all the time to feel more awake, or if I'm sweaty. I love cold water in the face. Well, all the time means like once a month. But still.
