My glasses are chafing the delicate area of skin around my eyes :( Does anyone have this problem and if so what do you do to combat it?
When I was still wearing glasses, this happened a lot to me in the winter. My skin got so dry, it became really fragile and easily irritated and chafed.
Mositurize, moisturize, moisturize. When it got very bad for me, I put a thin layer of Neosporin on the area before bed, and that helped a lot.
Hmmm, I've never had this happen with glasses, like does the bottom edge touch your cheeks/eye area? It sounds like the glasses might be a bad fit for you. The only area my glasses touch on my face are the bridge of my nose and my ears.
If it's on the bridge of your nose, use a good quality, sensitive-skin fragrance-free moisturizer and some cortizone cream. That's always helped me.
I'll get some irritation if I wear them while working out/sweating sometimes.
I just wash the area and remoisturize a few times a day.
