Mask making your glasses fog up in winter cold? These tips can help you see clearly

Anti-fog spray
Soap and water
Adjust or change your mask
Adjust your glasses
Stay away from these solutions
So stay away from shaving cream, vinegar, shampoo and toothpaste, optometrist Dr. Brad Brocwell told Good Housekeeping, because they can be harsh and abrasive to your lenses which can lead to scratches.
Also, dont use your own spit. Not only is it unsanitary, but saliva does not provide any chemicals to help fix the issue, Healthline said.
