How to Keep Mirrors From Fogging

Introduction

Think of the time you can save by preventing fogged-up mirrors. Here is a trick to earn yourself an extra five minutes of snooze time.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Steps

1

Step One

Apply a thin layer of shaving cream or liquid soap to the mirror with a lint-free cloth. The cream or soap will form a thin film that will prevent fogging.
2

Step Two

Buff in the cream or liquid soap until it is evenly and thinly applied. A slight film will be visible, but it should dissipate after a few hot showers.
3

Step Three

Leave the cream or soap on the mirror--do not wash it off with water. You'll find that your mirror no longer fogs up after a hot shower.
4

Step Four

Reapply the shaving cream or liquid soap after a week or two when the mirror begins to fog up again. Wash the mirror with glass cleaner between applications to avoid a buildup of film.

Overall Tips & Warnings

  • Because a small film is left on the mirror, you might want to try this method only on the portion of the mirror that you use to shave or apply makeup.

Overall Things You'll Need

  • Shaving Cream Or Liquid Soap
