Medical tape can be used to close the gap just under the eyes, depending on the type of mask and where it sits on their cheeks. But anti-fogging products for the goggles are definitely a less invasive option.

There are a number of windshield fogging prevention products on the market which may be worth a try. A thin film of (petroleum product-free) detergent might also work.
Good luck.

Has anyone found a workable solution to the problem with face mask+goggles= fogging in student chemistry labs?

Thanks for your assistance.
