5 tips to keep your glasses from fogging up while wearing a mask

Shaving cream

Another option is to use shaving cream on the lenses of your glasses. Put a little bit of shaving cream on the lenses. Using a cloth, rub it in to both sides of the lenses. Let it sit for a moment before washing it off with warm water.

Use a different mask

Did these tips not work for you? It could be that your mask doesn’t fit well above your nose. Purchase a mask that has a metal strip up top that you can form to the shape of your nose. This keeps too much warm air from getting out of the mask.

Wear your mask correctly

It takes some getting used to and many people aren’t wearing their masks correctly yet. Try to put the mask as close as you can to your eyes while wearing it as low as possible on the nose. This is another way to keep your glasses from fogging up as quickly.

Don’t touch your glasses too often

For some people it is a force of habit to constantly touch their glasses. When wearing a mask, try to do this as little as possible. This will also prevent warm air from getting on the lenses after having touched your glasses.
