Do Your Glasses Fog Up When Wearing a Mask?

I read somewhere to use part of a dry Swiffer cloth to keep your mask from fogging up. So, I cut a strip of Swiffer cloth the length of my mask and attached it using double sided tape. It works!!!

First time I'm hearing of that. Glad it worked. I make masks and for my family members who wear glasses, I sew in the nose guard that conforms to your nose.

@wismiss There are mask guards (Amazon) to put under the mask to keep the mask on the nose tighter and stops the glasses from fogging. Also, if you rub a small amount of dish detergent onto both sides of the lenses it will stop the fogging.

Yes, I do have that issue. It really bugs me!

I put my mask way up on the bridge of my nose then my glasses sit on the mask. I can see just fine and for the most part my glasses never fog up.

Stores also sell an anti-fog spray for glasses. It's found in the vicinity of readers, etc.

Nope, sorry girls, lots of tricks out there but glasses will ALWAYS fog up when wearing these @$#%^ masks. Nature of the beast.

When I first walk into the grocery store, which is about the only place I go these days, they fog over completely for the first few minutes then slowly unfog. I don't know if it's because I'm going from very cold outside to warm inside exacerbated by the mask or if it's totally from the mask. I don't recall having that problem in the winter prior to mask wearing but then my memory isn't what it used to be.
