Glasses used to slip all the time, then I got Keepons eyewear retainers


I have been interested in Keepons eyeglasses retainers for a long time but I’ve never bought anything online. Not even once. The idea intrigues me but I’m always afraid you know, about hackers and people stealing your information and then your money.

But recently I couldn’t take it anymore. My glasses always slip down my face and they do it so often that I can’t stand it anymore. It really bothers me. It seems not a minute goes by and I’m pushing them off the middle of my nose. And that makes me nervous and when I get nervous I start sweating and then my glasses fall more.

I mean it’s already bad enough where I work. Everyone is so good looking. The guys are all handsome and the women look like supermodels. And there’s me, looking dopey as usual. So I finally scrounged up the courage to place the order.

That and I learned that the chamightlike.com store which sells Keepons is hosted through shopify.com and I’ve read a lot of positive things about shopify. They’re big and really legit. Er sorry I mean legitimate. I tend to use slang like that, like a teenager. Also it’s PayPal after all.

I know I’m being overly worrisome but I can’t help it, I get it from my mom. I was raised to be a big worrier.

So after 2 weeks, well not exactly 2 weeks more like 10 days they came in the mail. I was so excited for two reasons. One this was my first online purchase and two, this thing promised to stop my glasses from slipping. Which it did no problem!!!!

WOW, now I’m thinking why have I been so stupid. Why didn’t I order them sooner. I could have saved myself so much suffering from slipping glasses. Now I actually smile and am planning to ask people out. Tonight I’m going shopping for new clothes. Thanks Keepons!

Friends telling friends about Keepons eyeglass retainers


I went over to my friend’s house for dinner last night. I’ve known Jennifer since we were in high school. Anita, Jennifer’s daughter looked really happy. I said, “what is it Sweetie? Did mom buy you something really nice?”

Anita nodded her head.

“Is it new books?” I asked, since Anita loved reading.

“Better,” she said with a sly smile.

“Better than books!” I exclaimed with true astonishment, there was nothing she liked better than books, except for, I turned to Jennifer in shock.

“You got her a pony!!!!”

Both mother and daughter burst out in tears amidst laughter.

“No Auntie Daphe,” said Anita as she took off her glasses for me to see.

On the arms of her glasses were attached what looked like transparent pieces of erasers.

“What. Is. That???”

“They’re called Keepons eyeglasses retainers, Aunty Daphe. Mom got them for me because the kids used to make fun of me because my glasses used to always fall down my nose. Billy always pushes me and says I’m a dork.”

“Well see her, you tell Billy that if he keeps that up, your Aunt Daphne is going to go over there and give him a knuckle sandwich!”

“Hahahahahah it’s ok, he won’t be pushing me anymore because my glasses don’t slip down my face anymore. Keepons did the trick.”

“Lemme see what you got there, pumpkin.”

I looked closely at Anita’s glasses and saw that the Keepons were attachments with a hollow middle. The temples threaded through the hollow middle. Then the Keepons hooked over Anita’s ears to stop them from slipping.

“How much these cost?”

“Six bucks all the way from Hong Kong, included free international shipping and tracking number,” said Jennifer.

“Hey my boss’s kids have the same problem, what’s the website address?”
“chamightlike.com”.

“Thanks, although I think they’re not as cool as a new pony,” I suggested.

We had huge giggles for the next 30 minutes then apple pie.

Play better volleyball with Keepons eyeglass retainers
























For you, volleyball is the sport, nothing better.

You started playing for the school team and then on the weekends it was beach volleyball.

While most of your friends enjoy cheerleading, for you it’s volleyball. It’s hard to express it: there’s a precision in volleyball that you haven’t experienced with other sports. You played girls basketball in your junior year and did alright. But it never held your interest, not as volleyball does.

And being close to the water, it’s so perfect.

Perhaps that’s why you love volleyball more. You can play volleyball at the beach and in this way the environment makes the game more perfect. You sort of understand why golfers love to golf. A part of the attraction is the setting.

That and the fact you’re really good at volleyball. Your ability to be spoke for the team, your ability to transcend your side and play as if you facing yourself from the opposite side. It’s uncanny but for you, as soon as the ball is served everything is slowed down and you see all the trajectories of the ball four or five moves ahead. You just know what people will do.

The only part of volleyball that kind of sucks is that your glasses keep slipping. You have goggles but they mess up your hair and what’s more, they leave you with raccoon eyes. You tan all over your body and face except underneath your goggles.

You’ve tried contacts but they dry out your eyes and more importantly when you’re at the beach, sand keeps getting into your contacts.

Eyeglass straps, cords, and chains just don’t help because the sit limply on the back of your neck and make you feel slow. Every turn of the neck is like pulling a sack of potatoes across your shoulders. Yup, if you could solve the problem of falling glasses down your nose, it would be perfect.

Well we have some great news for you. We have just what you’re looking for and their called Keepons eyeglass retainers. They come in a pair and they’re small and transparent pieces of engineered silicone which thread over each of your eyeglass temple tips. Once in place they balance out your glasses so they’re not so front heavy.

What’s more they gently hook around your ears so your eyeglass don’t slip down your nose every few minutes.

That way, when the play of the century comes along, you know the one where two defenders jump up to block, you can spike the ball with so much force it knocks them back ten feet and win the game without having to worry about your glasses slipping.

For the love of the game, remember the name. Keepons sports eyeglass retainers.

Keepons eyeglass retainers: engineered silicone

Do you want to know why Keepons eyeglass retainers were engineered using silicone?

It’s because of silicone’s properties. It can be stretched and then return to it’s original shape.

This is very important because of the way your eyeglasses are designed. For example, there is a wide variety of temple tip types.

Some temple tip types are narrow and of a consistent width, for example the entire tip is 3-4mm in width. These aren’t so common.

More common are temple tips that start off wide and then taper to become narrower as the tips get close to the front of your glasses. For example, the temple tips may be 8-10mm in width and then narrow done to about 4mm at the point that it meets with the temple arm.

Such inconsistency in width dimensions makes designing eyeglass retainers very difficult. For example, the original Keepons design calls for it to be boomerang shaped with a narrow aperture running through the center of it. This allows it to be threaded over the temple tips and then the protruding part hooks over your ears so they don’t slip.














But if you make the aperture too narrow you won’t be able to get it past the wide point of the temple tip. But if you make it too wide, it won’t sit properly once it gets to the narrow part of the temple tip.

Hence, silicone is used for its property of stretching only when it is sufficiently forced to do so, and then within minutes retain its original shape. This makes it perfect for the majority of temple tips. But not any silicone will do. The silicone for Keepons had to be specially formulated so it could be stretchy enough to get past wide temple tips but rigid enough to adhere to the tip and not move about.

In exceptional cases where the temple tip is just too wide, one can separate the temple tip from the temple and then thread the Keepons over the narrow end of the temple tips then reattach temple tip with temple arm.

Or in the case where the temple arm and temple tip are permanently joined, one can use a screwdriver and remove the temple from the frame and then thread the Keepons over the other end of the eyeglass temple arm.

Whatever shape your temple tips take, a lot of thought has been put into designing Keepons with one overriding purpose: to stop your eyeglasses from slipping. Nothing more and nothing less.

Keepons are the science of stopping slipping glasses.

Keepons keep your glasses on.

Memories of what it was like when my glasses kept slipping down my nose
























As I sit down to write this, I know that my memories are imperfect. We tend to overestimate or underestimate our feelings of events. Just like when you close your eyes and try to recall a memory and you pay close attention to the picture in your mind, you realize that that’s a pretty unclear picture. The people in it or the things in it, seems like electrical outlines. But that’s all your brain needs to color in between the lines. Strange, yet miraculous.

And so with this imperfect mechanism I’m trying to think what it was like before I started using Keepons eyeglass retainers. I have one very vivid memory, near the end of my time with slipping glasses. This was just before using Keepons. It was hot that day. And very muggy. I had just got off work and I was wearing dress pants, uncomfortable dress shoes, and a dress shirt. In my right hand, I was carrying my briefcase. I was walking with a colleague to a restaurant. We were going to have dinner. The restaurant was about a 20 minute walk. Which isn’t bad in itself, but my face was full of perspiration and my glasses keep slipping. The glasses I was wearing at the time were these metal frames. They weren’t that heavy, but they still slipped. I pushed them up and it seemed not more than a minute passed and they slipped again. I purposely held up my head in an unnatural position so the front of my glasses were higher than my ears. But this was really uncomfortable. As soon as I lowered my head to a natural position, my glasses fell again. After pushing them up, them falling, pushing them up, them falling again I gave up in exasperation.

Now here’s the thing with memories. You may not remember faces or places, but for some strange reason you tend to remember feelings, and I was feeling very hopeless and helpless at that point. Hopeless and helpless aren't feelings, they're labels. The action feeling was one of heaviness and wanting to hide away. I needed my glasses because I couldn’t see without them but they just didn’t stay on. I don’t know how to describe it. I don’t mean that at that point, I said to myself, “note to self, remember that at this moment on such and such a day and this hour of the day, I am currently feeling helpless and hopeless.” No it wasn’t like that. It was more like this. I recall feeling like I would have preferred to be any place than there, preferred to be anyone else than me with falling glasses, and knowing that it was just fancy and that all my wishing was for nought. I could not wish my glasses to stay on my head. I remember feeling how it sucks to wear glasses in the first place. People say that you end up wearing glasses because you watched too much TV as a kid, but I don’t believe it. I think that’s something adults make up to stop their kids from watching TV because they believe TV is a distraction. It is, but that’s beside the point. Two wrongs don’t make it right.

A little while after that, I stumbled on Keepons eyeglass retainers and they changed my life. I don’t mean change my life in an epiphany type of way like a man discovers the secrets of the universe in a grain of sand. I mean, I didn’t wish to be someone else anymore. It meant that I didn’t feel helpless or hopeless. I could function normally and not seem geeky. Don’t get me wrong. I use the computer and Internet a lot and I play a lot of video games and I’m interested in science fiction which kind of makes me a geek. But I’m rather handsome and I like the way I look. When I wear contacts, I look great. But contacts irritate my eyes so usually I wear glasses. Before Keepons it used to be that eyeglass slipping got so bad that I’d switch to disposable contacts for a month or two then get so uncomfortable with them that I’d go back to glasses and then when I started wearing glasses again I’d remember why I hate glasses in the first place and back and forth, shuttling between one source of comfort to the next.

Then like I said I got Keepons eyeglass retainers and things got a lot better. Life is funny. There are things in life that are trivial or inconsequential. Keepons are just pieces of silicone with a narrow tunnel running through them yet they’ve made such a big difference in my life.

Keepons Eyeglass Retainers and Your Self-Esteem
























If you could remake yourself, what would you change?

Most people start with externals like losing weight or being taller, but don’t ever think about what’s on the inside.

For example, being less fearful. Imagine how different your life would be if you dared to do the things you don’t dare. Asking for a raise. Asking for a date. Going for that dream job? Starting your own business? Running for office?

For so many things that invisible enemy known as Fear gets in the way.

Or what about self-discipline?

You’ve always wanted to lose weight but when faced with scrumptious pizza, or mouth-watering French fries who can say no?

How would your life be if you had extraordinary self-discipline?

What about altruism?

How would life be like if you felt more compassion for people, more empathy?

People who naturally don’t feel compassion will probably think that feeling compassion is a sign of weakness. That it opens you up to be abused and taken advantage of. On the contrary, compassion stems from a source of strength stronger than all the violence in the world. To reserve judgment, to reserve hate, to attempt to understand others, and extend understanding…indeed how different would your life be, how successful?

What about self-esteem? In every endeavor you embraced how would it turn out if you felt that heart swelling that overwhelms you when you’re filled with brimming self-confidence? When you could take on anything, defeat anyone or anything, climb any mountain no matter how high?

Self-esteem isn’t a secret that only a few people share. But for those who have had a nurturing childhood, self-esteem comes more naturally because when you’re brought up in an environment where you’ve loved unconditionally and given structure to try and fail and encouraged to try your best, you become confident in what you accomplish.

If you grew up without nurturing then it’s up to you to re-parent yourself and give yourself the support you didn’t have growing up. Eat better not because someone's forcing you to, but because of love for yourself and knowing that it’s genuinely good for you.

Get some exercise, not for your gym teacher but to feel energy coursing through your veins and enjoy the feeling of being alive.

Smile, laugh as often as possible. And if there’s a problem embrace it with all your facilities.

Which brings up the problem of falling glasses. How long has that been a problem for you? You probably think who cares, no will ever find me attractive, what does it matter to stop your glasses from slipping?

Well if you don’t like yourself no one will ever like you.

And consider why you don’t like yourself.

Because when it mattered most, when you needed it most, you weren’t liked for being just you.

You had to live up to impossible standards that kept changing.

Stop.

Suffer no more.

Continuing to put up with slipping glasses is agreeing that you don’t deserve better. You do. For around $5 and a click of your mouse, you can start the journey to be a better you.

Keepons eyeglass retainers are engineered from industrial-strength silicone and thread over the temple tips of your glasses. Once in place, they do two things. They balance out your glasses from behind because your lenses makes the center of gravity lean forward, leading to slipping glasses. Keepons balances out the weight.

More importantly Keepons gently wrap around your ears and behave like hooks which stop slipping glasses. Don’t wait anymore. You don’t deserve to continue suffering. Get your Keepons eyewear retainers today.

Sweating causing glasses to slip down nose, Keepons keeps them up

Know what Hyperhidrosis is? It's a medical condition. A disease if you will that's debilitating to those who suffer from it. It's when you sweat excessively. And by excessively we mean much much more than usual. You sweat when those around you are cool and dry. A casual stroll for most people might result in a slightly elevated heart rate and a healthy red glow in their cheeks, but if you have Hyperhidrosis you'll look like you just stepped out of the shower.

And while medical professionals certainly don't put Hyperhidrosis on the same severity scale as deadly diseases like Cancer or AIDS, Hyperhidrosis does have one quality about it that makes it quite horrifying to those who suffer from it. When you have Hyperhidrosis, your worst fears are realized.

For normal people, fear is a phantom without substance. But people with Hyperhidrosis live with the embarassment associated with appearing drenched or dripping wet and this causes them to fear sweating. This fear makes them sweat more. The more they sweat, the worse their fear and on and on goes this positive loop or vicious spiralling effect. In fact, it's not just worst fears realized, it's worst fears compounded with every iteration until daily living becomes frought with anxiety to the point of depression or worse.

Now for eyeglass wearers suffering from Hyperhidrosis, pushing up their slipping eyeglasses is a full-time occupation. Your face is moist to the point of sweat drenched, your hair is damp like you walked in from the rain, and your nose is bubbly with beads of sweat. And this makes the materials of your eyeglass frames slippery. Metal especially the electroplated kind in most eyeglasses or plastic frames become more slippery than a themepark waterslide in the presence of sweat.
























As a solution, Hyperhidrosis sufferers can find relief from eyeglass slipping with the use of Keepons eyeglass retainers. These engineered silicone attachments thread over your temple tips to hook gently around your ears. This not only balances the front heavy lenses, but they also stop forward movement of your entire eyeglass frame. The result is that your eyeglasses don't slip, you feel better, you sweat less, you fear less, and the vicious cycle of sweat fearing is actually reversed.

Don't hesitate any further, get your Keepons eyeglass retainers right away and stop slipping glasses due to the excessive sweating associated with Hyperhidrosis.

How to stop glasses slipping down nose

Why Keepons is your best solution for stopping slipping glasses.

How many times have you promised yourself you'd eat better, more healthier? But within a short time after making that promise you find yourself scarfing over junk food, burger, pizza, fries, chocolate bars, soda pop, that promise like a distant memory.

How many times have you promised yourself you'd get more exercise? Perhaps you know someone who suffered a stroke recently due to obesity and you swore you'd work more exercise into your regimen. You may have even gone to the mall to buy some new running shoes. And after two nights of walking around the block a couple of times after dinner, you're back to your old spot on the couch in front of the TV. Stroke? Won't happen you kid yourself.

And so it goes with so many things in life, bad habits continued, good habits never adopted, always procrastinating. Tomorrow never comes.

Maybe it's getting some more education so you can get bigger responsibilities at work so you'll get a raise.

Maybe it's losing some weight so you can attract the perfect mate.

Maybe it's getting an image makeover so you can truly be the real you.

We always put off what's good for you as if we have this self-sabotage mechanism built inside us.

If not why would we push up our slipping glasses over and over when there's a simple solution to eyeglass slipping.

They're called Keepons eyeglass retainers. Precision engineered silicone attachments that slip over each of your temple tips to sit comfortably behind your ears to stop the forward movement of your eyeglasses which lead to eyeglasses slipping down your nose.

















And all it takes it a click of the mouse to order them. Two weeks later they'll arrive in the mail and you'll see better, look better, and feel better. If only eating healthy and exercising could be accomplished as easily.

Keepons keep your glasses on.

Glasses Keep Slipping Down Nose, There Is A Simple Solution

It's bad enough that your vision isn't perfect. But then again, lots of people have it worse than you. Your vision is bad, but there are many people out there who suffer from blindness or near-blindness.

It's bad enough that you have to wear glasses because your vision isn't perfect. But then again, lots of people have it worse than you. Some people need glasses, but can't afford them. Or some people can only afford really cheap glasses and they feel embarassed wearing them. Like they're unworthy or somehow not good enough.

It's bad enough that your glasses keep slipping down nose. But then again lots of people have it worse than you. While your glasses may slip once or twice an hour, some people's glasses slip down immediately after pushing them as a result of their thick lenses as a result of their really poor eyesight. Or they may slip immediately because the person suffers from Hyperhidrosis, another name for excessive sweating.

And out of all the people who wear glasses, it's probably consoling to know that while a lot of people have it better than you, a lot of people have it worse. It isn't that thinking about people having it worse is supposed to make you happy. What it is is that if we remind ourselves that others have it worse, we can get off our high horse and stop pitying ourselves or thinking that our small problems are the mountains we make it out to be.

The fact is, not much in life, is as bad as it make it out to be. Quite often, we avoid simple solutions because for some reason we like staying in the problem. That this somehow defines us. It's almost that we enjoy suffering. That there is something noble in suffering.

This idea of noble suffering isn't without its merits. There is nobility in suffering for others. Like if you suffered for someone you love, or you fought for a great cause, but for something like slipping eyeglasses, there's no nobility in continuing to push up your glasses over and over, hundreds of times per day, hundreds of days per year, year and year, when there really is a simple solution and that solution is roughly five dollars and you could have that solution mailed to you with shipping and tracking number included free.

Keepons eyeglass retainers is a next generation anti-slip eyewear attachment that stops slipping glasses.

You slide them onto your eyeglass frame temples and they act like gentle hooks to prevent your eyeglasses from falling forward.

Some great things about Keepons eyewear retainers is that they are small and engineered from transparent silicone which makes them almost invisible so no one will know you're wearing them.

They really work and they're really comfortable.

Most importantly, Keepons are easy to use and safe to use.

This is in contrast to eyeglass straps, eyeglass cords, eyeglass chains, and eyeglass lanyards which are dangerous. Such dangers present themselves when these rope-type eyeglass retainers increase your chances of getting caught on hooks or protrusions while walking by, getting snagged by passing objects, clothes-lined and falling as a result of closing car doors, become tangled in dangerous machinery, the list is endless.

Even manufacturers and merchants who sell eyeglass straps, cords, chains, and lanyards have taken to warning customers of their dangers as evident in the following pictures and links.
