They work great!!!
I admit that I usually wait for Amazon to remind me about a review of a product I purchased. This is the first time I’ve ever gone out and created a review without being reminded by Amazon. I’ve only had these things on my glasses for a couple days, but they really really work! I went from wire frame glasses with nose pads to acetate/plastic frame glasses cause my kids said they look better on me. That may or may not be true, but these plastic frame glasses slide down my nose all the time. I was literally considering getting new wire frame glasses with nose pads. I was at the optometrist office, looking at frames with nose pads. I explained to the employee why I was doing this and she recommended this product. She said they really worked well and I should give them a try. So I did. They are soft, they fit perfectly. They’re super thin, and they definitely keep the frames for sliding down my nose. I’m a very happy customer.. Fair warning, getting through the packaging was a bit of a challenge. The round circular plastic container they come in was really hard to open. However, it was worth the effort. Update; Been two weeks, and they still keep my glasses from sliding down my nose. However, the adhesive that holds the pads onto the glasses appears to last about two weeks. You get 5 pairs of nose pads, so it appears this is about a 3 month supply (give or take). Still like them and recommend them, this is just to inform everyone of the durability I encountered.

Stops my glasses from slipping
Works amazing and stops my glasses from slipping all the time. They pretty much sit where I put them now and you can’t see them when I’m wearing my glasses. They only last like 2-3 weeks per set but they work so well I’m definitely going to be buying more to keep stocked.

Quick-fix alternative to a new pair of glasses
Now that I'm back to needing glasses daily for anything requiring detailed work such as being on the computer, any time I have to head outside, or basically any activity where I can't function with a little fuzziness from the safety of being indoors, I've found myself struggling the past couple of years mode than I remember ever needing to before to find a pair of glasses that stay on my face without slipping down my face or getting smudged every 5 minutes or just being uncomfortable. Of those issues, I was looking to find something to help me keep my main frames more firmly on my face, as they keep slipping down my nose every few minutes. This causes me to subconsciously try and scrunch my nose to keep them up when I dont actively push them up by hand, and that cuases headaches. So failing to find a solution involving something like a pair of goggles or straps (that would be comfortable and affordable), I figured the next best thing would be something to add texture or grip to the plastic nose pieces on my glasses. Mine dont have the protruding metal and silicone/plastic pads, and are rather the ones that rest entirely on your nose. Because the plastic is kind of cheap and smooth, over time your face's oil makes them slip. After some research, I found these and there seemed to be enough reviews and purchases that gave enough hope that, even if they weren't perfect, maybe they'd be good enough to keep me from having to buy new frames, which are prohibitively expensive to do. I tried both the 0.6mm and 1mm ones and can say that they rate roughly 3-4/5 stars. They're not bad for sure, and I can recommend them with some caveats: - Applying them is a little tough, as theyre small and the space youre applying them to is also small, requiring some dexterity on your part. Thankfully the pads are sticky enough that you can reapply them if you miss or they wind up crooked, but it is annoying. -Despite being sticky at first, the 1mm pads I bought were not very sticky and didnt last more than a couple of days, so I had to return/replace them (they were also way too thick and uncomfortable, although I did wind up getting used to a replacement set after a few weeks) -They do provide decent grip and functioned as intended. Even if it almost feels like the glasses want to slip down, if you gently tug on them, they won't slip down past where the pads are gripping on your nose. That said, they aren't sticky on the grip part, all they offer is texture so mileage may vary based on skin type and how much you sweat. -Personally, I think they are a little expensive for how short their lifetime is. In my experience, I think about a month is going to be the average lifespan under good conditions and normal-ish use. However, they adhesive starts to ooze out of the bottom (probably from the heat/warmth of your face), and the grip texture winds up catching dead skin, so they get nasty. Even if you wanted to keep them longer, I think for hygiene they should be swapped every month, which makes these something you'll be buy often. With all that said, if you need something to keep frames on your face and you can't afford a new pair of glasses any time soon, these will probably do the job, or are at least worth the test. I dont love the idea of being stuck having to buy these once you start, but its better than getting headaches. If they were closer to $1 a pair of pads, that'd probably be a much more fair price for something meant to be disposable and so prone to wear or possibly getting rubbed off by accident.

Tiny, exremely difficult to put on, easily fall off, and overpriced esp w/o an applicator included.
They work great, if you're only using them for the day. They don't last for long term usage. They are also extremely difficult to apply. Once you do apply them, they fall off very easily. They're also too expensive for what you get. Almost 14 bucks for some tiny silicone pads with glue on them? Absolutely not! I refuse to buy any more of them. I've had two pairs fall off my glasses after being used for less than 24hrs. I often fall asleep with my glasses on because my eyesight is awful, and I do a lot of things from bed since I'm disabled. I thought these nose pads would stay on. It's better to get a pair of glasses with screw on nose pads and get the grip pads that screw on. I've never had a pair of the screw on pads fail, even though my skin gets oily, especially in the summer. I'd score these lower, but I have Cerebral Palsy, so I think part of the application difficulty is because I have motor skill issues. IMO a good product should be easy for everyone to use, regardless of ability level. I initially thought the reason for this kind of pricing was because there was an applicator in the package. I was wrong. I got these cheaper at Walmart when I thought the reason for them falling off was because I had extreme difficulty putting them on.

Easy to put on your glasses, works well
Easy to put in your glas. They work very well to keep them from slipping, even if you’re perspiring. I highly recommend them.

I’ld be Frustrated Without Them!
Not perfect but close. Without these on my glasses frame I would go crazy pushing them up to the bridge. They do require a little finesse and maintenance. First, placement on your glasses can be a challenge. Clean your fingers and glasses with rubbing alcohol. I use a tweezers to center them where they work best on my nose pad. It can be tricky. I like them lined up on both sides. I sometimes have to pick them off a couple times to get it right. That is why I clean my fingers and nose pads with alcohol. Secondly the glue does start to migrate out the edges after a week in my world. I use the pick I pictured to tease the excess glue out and wipe it clean on a tissue. Finally if you get the adhesive on your lenses (PITA) use alcohol and a 100% cotton cloth to wipe off. Matter of fact after 70 plus years of wearing glasses I find 100 % cotton cloth diapers to be the only way to keep my glasses clean without scratching. That and foam hand soap.

not durable
The pads are thin, fit well on my glasses, are easy to use and came in nice, little carrying case. However, after less than a week, one pad started to crumble/flake off. Replaced it and after two days, the replacement fell off. Lucky for me, I was carrying the case, so could replace the pad. The replacement pad has been on a week and is still sticking. I'm hoping the first two were lemons. If I had written the review the first week, before the first pad had crumbled, I would have rated it a 5 as they seemed to be good quality. But with one pad crumbling and another falling off, the pads are too expensive given their limited lifespan. Wished they had worked out.

Finally no more pushing glasses up
Solved the issue of my sunglasses slipping down. Easy to use goes on like a sticker. Was the perfect size for my sunglasses that didn’t have any rubber grip on the plastic frame. Wish there was a mixed pack of clear and black. Would give 5 stars but I think the price is high for what they are. $15 for a few little stickers but they solved the problem.

They work as claimed
I recently got new plastic framed glasses and they keep slipping down my nose. It was driving me nuts, as they're varifocals, so their position is important. I bought these pads with minimal searching and surprisingly they work absolutely as advertised. After cleaning they stick well and have not peeled. They grip the bridge of my nose without any discomfort. They will slip eventually, but I'm not constantly pushing my glasses back in place like before. I got black coloured ones which blend quite well with the dark grey frames. I would recommend them and would buy them again should I need replacements.

مناسبة لكن تنفع اكثر للنظارات اللي دعامتها منفصلة عن البرواز
تثبت النظارة لكن تضطرو تقصوها اذا كانت اكبر من الدعامة، استخدمتها شهر وفكيتها ضايقتني احس انها ثقلت النظارة على انفي لان الدعامة مدمجة مع البرواز

Good

Amazing grip
****Update - I put on the first pads on May 1st, and it's now June 3rd and I've had to remove them because the adhesive wore off. A month of daily wear from waking up to sleeping, in all conditions (rain, sun, sweat, etc...) is ok with me, though I do wish they'd last just a bit longer. Either way, I love these enough that I'm willing to keep buying and using them - they really do work and I've found that my habit of constantly adjusting has slowly waned, though I do reach up sometimes and then stop, realizing I don't have to adjust. No sticky residue after removal - the pads just started slipping around a bit and then slipped right off. **** I was hesitant about these - putting something sticky on my new glasses that would change where they sit on my face since I have progressives that need to be in a specific spot. I've also had glasses with nose pads before and refuse to buy those anymore since they're even more slippery. I tried the little silicone grips that go on the arms of the glasses and they work for daily use but not when I got sweaty so I decided to try theses and so far I'm super impressed. My glasses went on and just stayed exactly where I put them. It's second nature for me to make constant adjustments pushing them up my bridge but I haven't had to at all in hours. I haven't gotten sweaty yet but almost look forward to seeing if these work as well as I expect they will. If so I'll be a happy customer forever.

weak glue
The glue did not last for even a full month.
