Some of us are allergic to fragrances so baby shampoo was not an option in my labs when I was teaching. Having the instructor have an asthma attack from fragrances the students put on their goggles with the "anti-fog" chemical didn't make sense.

Dear Barbara:

We talked a bit about fogging in our ACS video related to PPE at

We recommend a soap solution and show how to do it.

DCHAS Colleagues:

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

Thanks for your assistance.
