Why do my glasses keep sliding down my nose, and how can I stop it?
Slipping glasses are one of the most common issues people experience with their eyewear! There are several reasons this happens, and thankfully, most are easily fixable.
Common causes include:
Frame fit: Over time, frames can become too wide or loose. Frames should sit comfortably without pinching, but they need enough grip to stay in place.
Nose pad adjustment: If your glasses have adjustable nose pads, they may have shifted and need repositioning to match the contour of your nose bridge better.
Oily skin: Natural skin oils can make frames slip, especially in warmer weather or during physical activity.
Worn-out frames: With regular wear, frame material can stretch or lose its original shape, particularly at the temples.
What you can do:
Visit us at Little Spectacle Shop for a complimentary frame adjustment! We can tighten the temples, adjust nose pads, or add silicone nose pads or temple grips for extra security.
These simple tweaks can make a world of difference to your comfort. If your frames are beyond adjustment, we'd be happy to help you find a new pair that fits perfectly.
