Sliding Spectacles :O

Razor87 SG

Hi, I'm currently facing problems with spectacles, which I'm finding it a nuisance now. I realise that when I wear spectacles, the 2 portruding oval-shaped piece that sits nicely on your nose, will turn oily easily due to my easily oily nose. Because of that, my spectacle usually slowly slip down my nose, causing great discomfort to me. Then I'll have to push the spectacle up, before waiting for another minute before it starts coming down again. One solution I know is wearing spectacle hooks, which is black in colour.. and it doesn't really look nice too. I'm just wondering if there's any others facing the same problem and if there is a better solution? Or maybe, can someone advice me on how to reduce oily face other than washing your face frequently? Thanks alot!

Get the shop replace the 2 small plastic to rubber ones. I think your specs too big for your face. Try on many different types of specs then decide which design suit your face.

FireIce SG

i tot now they have the new kind of rubber which is "anti-slip" or wat
i heard at the optical shop one
like those anti-slip mats?? hahahaa...
but i think it may be a bit rough?

aiyar just use oil paper wipe ur nose when u realise it's oily la.

Maybe your frames are too heavy. It's time to change a new frame if that's the case.

If not, I suggest you get your nose pads changed and adjusted. It only costs $2 or free if you go back to your usual optician. =)

kajagugu SG

other than your face, occasionally wash the pads(dunno wat it's called) with soap to remove the oil.

TS, I had the same problem as you before. I got so fed up that I gave up wearing specs. Why don't you wear contact lens or go for lasik?

Godly SG

Try change to contact lens ,
If contact lens make you feel un-comforatble.
Buy the blue colour sheets of paper , Should be Clean and clear bah . The one who helps you remove your oil from your face.
Then use them once in awhile it should help .

This is what i suggest O:

Wash face is a must. Use the right product to wash and also apply the right moisturiser lah.

You can also powder your nose a bit. And if you are a guy and shy about powdering your nose like the girls. I suggest you use those talcum powder that is formulated for face.

Go to Guardian Pharmacy. Look for bins that has this brand called Silky something. Its a small bottle about 50ml of face talcum powder.

After you washed your face, put on moisturiser, then spread on some face talcum powder.
