GMS Optical Adhesive Silicone Nose Pads for Glasses |1.3mm Ultra-Thin, 18mm Large | Non Slip Glasses Grips for, Sunglasses and Eyewear w/Super Sticky Backing, Eyeglass Accessories (10 Pairs, Clear)

These have worked very well for me. I bought them a year ago, and just put on my third (3 out of 5) set. I've found that the glasses they are going on have to be scrupulously clean before application. No residual skin oil, soap or dirt. They also have to be placed carefully. They need to be put on with full contact on the nose piece. See my picture below. If they aren't solidly adhered to plastic everywhere, water or skin oil will get underneath the adhesive and they'll fall off. I suspect they'll only work on plastic glasses frames. They last me about six month of hard use. They work very well to keep my glasses from sliding down my oft broken and asymmetric nose ;-)

To save money, when I needed new prescription glasses this year, I used my old frames that I love so that I'd only have to pay for new lenses. The only problem was that these frames always slide down my nose from my oily skin. It drove me crazy. I would literally be pushing my glasses up every few minutes. The friction gave me those dark lines on the sides of my nose which I also hated. To get the right size, just get a little tape measure like the one you use for sewing. Measure the length of the nose piece on your glasses. That's all there is to it. Once I got them, I cleaned off my glasses nose piece with one of those eyeglass wipes with the alcohol and let dry. Then I put these on and it's been smooth sailing ever since. Mind you, the dark spots on the sides of my nose haven't disappeared and that's just the cost of wearing glasses, I guess. But the friction caused by daily slipping and sliding has subsided. I got these exactly 30 days ago and waited a month before writing this review. I wanted to see how long-lasting they were. It's been a full month and they are still in place. I wipe them frequently with eyeglass wipes to keep oil from my face off them and they haven't budged. I appreciate that there are spares but even if I had to replace these every couple of months, I'd be happy. It's a minor investment for major improvement in comfortable eyeglass wear. === UPDATE: my original review was posted August 24, 2024. I just want to let you know that I am still wearing the first set that I put on my glasses and today is October 11. I wear makeup, and I do have oily skin, but these things really stay put. I just clean it when I clean my glasses with those wet wipes. I just make sure to wipe off the nose pads. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for comfort and convenience. === ‼️ Another update April 28, 2025. I just uploaded a video review and am emailing that video to GMS, too, to let them know how impressed I am. After 9 months, I STILL have one pair left from the 5-pack. I am a woman with oily-ish skin, I wear makeup, I have hot flashes...the whole nine. If you keep them clean they will last. For instance, whenever I clean my glasses with the wet wipes, I make sure to wipe the nose pads, too. It's like anything else; you need to maintain it to get the best life out of the product. I don't need to place another order just yet, but when I do, I'll get the same brand again. I am truly impressed. So impressed that I didn't even bother using a filter or getting pretty for this video. It is what it is 😆 but you got the message! Follow me for good reviews and REAL reviews.

He's really do keep the glasses from slipping down your nose! I only complaint is the adhesive doesn't last very long. It sticks very well but only last a couple of weeks then you have to replace them.

One pair of the pads lasted me about 3 weeks, then the adhesive started to dissolve and the pads would slide around. I also noticed I was having minor allergies from the pad itself, the bridge of my nose starts to itch a bit. Once the adhesive started wearing down, the itching became more intense on my nose and spread to my eyes. In terms of overall feel, they are sturdy for the time they last. I don’t really notice them pressing into my face unless I push my glasses further up onto my nose. Your glasses will slide down your nose with the pads if your face is oily, so you may want to wipe your face or the pads frequently. I guess $8-12 every 3-4 months on nose pads isn’t too high of a price, I just wish I didn’t have allergies to the product.

I have a very small adult face & I always need kids’ sized frames, but my acetate frames still feel a bit big on my nose or side more than I like. I’ve tried so many of these stick-on nose pads and these are by far my favorite! They are thick enough to keep my glasses where I want them but thin enough to not mess up my vision through my progressive lenses. They keep my frames from sliding and I find that I can get a month or more from a pair, even with what I wear for makeup. I wipe my frames, fingers, and tweezers with an alcohol wipe prior to installation (to minimize any oils) and use the tweezers to apply, then gently push/rub my thumb over them to fully adhere them in place. I can clean my glasses as needed without the nose pads coming off, and I can wipe the nose pads with an alcohol wipe if they get a little oily/dirty from makeup. After a month or so (maybe more often in summer or longer in winter) I take them off and reapply a new pair. I won’t be without these!

Easy to apply and not really visible. The first couple days they were a little tacky, but that is no longer the case. Hold my glasses in place in my nose without any issues. I can’t even feel them anymore.

I have been using these on my plastic frame glasses for several years. I love them. I did have to pay attention to making sure I ordered the right thickness. They last about a month and that works for me.

These are well-made, easy to apply, completely invisible once in place, and if you follow the directions, they last for a couple of weeks before needing to be replaced. Again, they are effective, but both my husband and I found that we’d need to keep ordering to enjoy the benefits. (Note: My husband has oily skin and although I have very dry skin, I use skincare and wear a minimal amount of makeup.) Since we were hoping for a more permanent solution, not an ongoing expense, these weren’t exactly what we’d hoped.
