For real. Everytime I get in the shower I end up having to point the showerhead away and cower from the cold water and I could have just turned it on first?

I didn’t learn until my 40s that if you exhale gently while getting water on your face, none of it goes in your nose.

I think I learnt this when I was taught swimming as a child. You always slowly exhale or at least keep the air in your nose slightly under pressure while you're underwater, so the water doesn't get in.

Blowing bubbles is always the first thing I taught kids when they were learning to swim.
