If you are short on time, there are a few simple home remedies you can use. To handle the problem more thoroughly, you can adjust the frame to fit your face. After adjusting the frames, the glasses will stay in place all day long.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Self-correction at home

1. 

   Wash your face to remove the natural oils on your skin. Oily skin can cause glasses to drop down the nose. Choose a natural cleanser that helps to remove excess oil and wash your face once or twice a day for maximum results. Apply cleanser to your skin and rinse it off with water before putting your glasses on to see if the glasses are still slipping.
   • Your skin will secrete more oil during the day, so bring a wet towel to easily wipe off excess oil from your face.
   • Frequently using cleansers to remove oils from the skin can dry out the skin.

2. 

   
   
   Wrap the rubber band around the glass bracket to increase grip. You should use two small hairsprings of the same color as the frames to keep them from being exposed. Slip a hair elastic around the third of the glass and twist it in several turns to wrap the elastic. Do the same with the other side of the glass.
   • Remember to wrap the rubber band evenly on the glasses to avoid discomfort when wearing.
   • Try different thickness elastic bands to see which fit into the glasses and is most comfortable when wearing glasses ..

3. 

   
   
   Apply wax to the bridge bridge to prevent slipping. Anti-slip glass wax products look like a lip balm, which is used to increase the friction between the frame and the nose. Just open the lid and apply some wax on the bridge part and put on your glasses to see if it still slips. If the glass still moves, apply a little more wax.
   • You can buy anti-slip glasses wax online or at local pharmacies.

   Warning: Anti-slip glass wax will not work if the glass does not fit the head. If that's the case, you need to go to a glasses salon to choose a glasses that fit better.

   Wrap the heat-shrink tube in the glass to keep the glass tighter. When affected by heat, the heat shrink tube shrinks according to the shape of the object in the tube. Insert a heat-shrink tube where the glass is in contact with your ear, hold a heat-blower gun about 10-13 cm from the heat-shrink tube, then blow low for about 30 seconds to shrink it.
   • You can purchase heat shrink tubes at electrical appliance stores. Look for tubes that are the same color as the frames so they won't be too exposed.
   • If you don't have a heat gun, you can also use a dryer and blow-dry on top heat.
   • Do not blow the heat for too long to avoid damaging or melting the frames.
   • Some types of frames may have rubber covers on the frames.

Method 2 of 3: Adjusting the frames

1. 

   Change the nose pad if the glasses often slip down the nose. Use a small screwdriver to screw in and remove the nose pad, replace a new nose pad and tighten it again before replacing the other side.
   • You can buy a replacement nose pad online or at an eyewear store.
   • You can also spend a small amount of money to change the nose pad on the glasses at the store.

   Advice: If the frame does not have a nose pad, you can buy a pad that sticks to it and stick it on the frame to keep the glasses from slipping off.

2. 

   Squeeze the two nose pads on the frame closer together if they are adjustable. Some frames have a nose pad mounted on a small metal rod that you can adjust yourself. Grasp the outer edges of the pads with your fingers and carefully squeeze them closer together. Be sure to adjust the two pads to the scale so that the glass doesn't skew.
   • If you accidentally squeeze the nose pads together too closely, you can push them out a bit wider.
   • Be careful not to break the nose pads too much, or they may fall off the frames.
   • You can also take your glasses to the glass shop for an adjustment if you can't do it yourself.

3. 

   Adjust the glass bracket so that the glass fits tightly to the head. The distance between the two glasses will affect the embrace of the glass relative to the head. If you are using metal frames, make sure to hold the top of the glass with your non-dominant hand, the dominant hand uses the needle clamp to clamp the bottom of the glass frame and carefully bend the tail of the truncated glass to the inside of the frame so that they hold more firmly. If using plastic frames, use a hair dryer to heat them for 1-2 minutes, then curl them by hand.
   • You can also bring the frames to the salon so that the glass cutter can adjust it.

4. 

   Use the non-slip ear hook so that the frame doesn't slide out of the ear. The non-slip ear hook is a small piece of rubber that attaches to the frame and prevents the glass from slipping. You simply attach the non-slip hook to the glass frame and adjust the position so that the hook fits snugly against the ear when wearing the glasses. Be sure to attach non-slip hooks to both sides of the glass to keep the glasses level.
   • You can buy non-slip ear hooks for eyeglasses online or at retail shops.

Method 3 of 3: Choose the right size frame

1. 

   Measure face size to determine the frame size. You can go to a glasses salon to measure your face before buying glasses. A glass cutter or salon staff member will help you determine the exact size of your lenses, bridge width, and length of lenses to millimeters.
   • For example, your eyeglasses measurements might be 55-18-140, where 55mm is the lens width, 18mm is the width of the bridge, and 140mm the length of each side.
   • If you already have a fitting glasses, you can find these 3 parameters on either side of the glass to see the frame size.
   • Some applications that support the purchase of glasses also have a tool that can be used through the camera on the phone to estimate the size of the glasses that best suits you.

   Advice: Avoid buying “single-size” frames as they may be too large or too small for your face and will slip off more often.

2. 

   Choose a frame with anti-slip cover on the side of the glass to make the glass less likely to slip. The anti-slip coating is the rubber wrapped around the glass to increase friction and make it difficult for the glass to slip. Look for a frame of the right size and with non-slip rubber at the top of the glass, try and feel.
   • If the frames are too tight, the longer you wear them, the more discomfort you will feel.
   • You can purchase a non-slip cushion and attach it to a frame if you can't find one with a non-slip cushion on it.

3. 

   Try adjusting the nose pad as tight as possible. Many types of frames have a nose pad that attaches to an adjustable metal base. Choose an appropriate size frame with this nose pad in the glasses store or online store, if the nose pad is too wide and not firmly attached to the nose, you can squeeze them to fit a little. twisted more.
   • If the frame you like doesn't have an adjustable nose pad, you can attach a removable nose pad to keep the glasses from slipping off.
