Abstract
A squeegee is secured to a razor to permit a person to wipe and remove water condensation due to steam or water vapor from a reflecting surface, such as a mirror. Preferably, the squeegee is formed from a soft or compliant elastomeric material, such as rubber or a suitable synthetic material, and extends generally along a longitudinal axis that is parallel to the plane of the razor blade. The squeegee is also useful in removing shaving cream or lather from the portion of the anatomy to be shaved. The squeegee may be integrally formed on the head or on the body or handle of the razor. Alternatively, the squeegee may be formed on a replaceable cartridge for a cartridge-type razor or as an attachment to the handle of a razor.
