$5 fix can stop your glasses from slipping down your nose

I'm not going to waste your time talking about how slipping glasses suck. It's stressful and frustrating having to push up your eyeglasses every couple of minutes, especially if you're in an occupation that requires the constant use of both hands like being a massage therapist or a chef.

And I'm not going to waste your time talking about why glasses slip. For a detailed explanation, read this.

The fact is, your glasses slip and everything you've tried so far hasn't worked. And despite bringing the glasses back to the store to get them adjusted and tweaked with fancy optometrist pliers hasn't helped one bit.

Here's the 5 dollar solution.

They're called Keepons eyeglass accessories and they slip onto your glasses to prevent your glasses from slipping down your nose.

Here's a video to see them in action.

Keepons are cool cause:

1. They're ever so light and compact
2. Constructed from rip resistant silicone rubber
3. They increase glasses on skin friction to prevent gravity from pulling down your glasses
4. Are transparent so no one can tell you're wearing them
5. Easy to use
6. Just twist to remove
7. It's perfect for students
8. Stops kids from getting bullied by making them look less nerdy
9. Allows you to wear your glasses while participating in light sports such as golfing, tennis, badminton, etc
10. Solves the problem of oily skin causing slipping glasses
11. Helps prevent slipping glasses even if you have a flat nose
12. Stops sliding glasses even if you suffer from Hyperhidrosis
13. Frees your hands so you can focus on the task at hand
14. Works with sunglasses too
15. They act like comfortable hooks around your ears
16. Safer alternative to eyeglass straps

Just imagine this scenario:

Whoever said no pain, no gain was almost correct. Perhaps they should have said that no pain, no vain, because that's what wearing these new glasses feel like. You feel in love with them the minute you saw them in a upscale fashion mag.

And these designer glasses decorated in black lacquer and rhinestone encrusted temples, cost you a significant chunk of your savings. You were taken aback when the sales girl told you how much they were, yes, even you were shocked, and you're not stranger to buying luxury items.

Begrudingly you open you Prada purse, take out your Louis Vitton wallet, and hand the girl you gold Visa card. It's not easy looking amazing, and you do look amazing. Looks are important. You didn't always know this truth.

In highschool you were the girl no one asked out. The one boyfriend you had back then had been recommended to you by your mother's hairdresser and he was totally slobby and narcissistic. But then you met Lilith in university, and she helped you bring out the beautiful in you that had been dormant and locked up all these years.

You threw away all your sweatclothes and baggy jeans, oversized tees and purchased a few strategic outfits to bring out the best in you. You started working out regularly and ate well. And finally at age 32, as you look in the mirror on the door of your closet, you give yourself an appreciating smile. But after a few days of wearing your trendy glasses you started getting headaches.

It started when you were in the middle of answering an email from a customer. You're a graphic designer and your works of art can regularly be found as part of the web identity of many of the web's top websites. It got so bad, you had to stop typing in your Macbook Air and put your elbows on your desk and rub your forehead to ease the pain. You took off your glasses and unaware to you, soon your headache ceased.

A phonecall comes in, it's a content writer you work with, asking to send you a document he'd like you to look at, for ideal text placement and overall design consideration. You agree, put your glasses on your ears and wince with pain. Because your glasses are heavier than usual, they have been digging into the cartilage of your ears and you weren't aware of it. When you run your finger over the area you find it's raw and tender.

With a sigh, you grin and bear the pain. These glasses are too expensive to just toss aside. You look at the clock, it's only 11am. It's going to be a long day.


Life could be so much better with these cool Keepons anti-slip eyeglass devices.
