I don’t know about you, but I really hate how foggy my bathroom mirror gets after a hot shower. Fortunately, according to Science Centric, researchers in China have discovered a way to to make raspberry-shaped nanoparticles that give glass a permanent antifogging coating. 
Shower Mirror Fog Free
Researchers Junhui He and colleagues have found a commercially feasible way to make raspberry-shaped nanoparticles that can disrupt the process by which water droplets condense on glass to cause that pesky fogging effect. They coated glass slides with the particles, cooled them, and then exposed them to steam. Unlike ordinary glass, the treated slides stayed crystal clear no matter how much steam they were exposed to. In addition to the obvious advantages in the bathroom, this breakthrough has application to eye glasses and even automobile windshields.
What do YOU think? Are you freaked out by foggy glass or is this just a waste or Chinese research dollars? Are you having a Foggy Mountain Breakdown? (That’s a song, in case you didn’t know….) Leave a comment and share your thoughts with the rest of the Beauty Brains community.

If they could apply it to glasses, especially sunglasses, it would be worth it. I’m sick and tired of my prescription sunglasses fogging up while driving. But apparently the current anti-fogging stuff doesn’t work on sunglasses.
As for mirrors, I hate them more then a vampire does. So I’m alright with a foggy one.
I’d be willing to pay more for a bathroom mirror that didn’t get foggy.
You could try Fog-Be-Gone by Magic Safety Products …. it’s made specifically for industrial safety glasses, but works just fine on bathroom mirrors and eye glasses. It is an American product; been around for years.
Heck, I’d pay more for glasses that already had anti-fog. They’ve already included anti-glare. Though it is kind of funny for other people to watch my glasses fog up when I’m over hot food or opening the dishwasher.
Oh please, just use shaving cream to clean the mirror with…no fog.
ahahaha cleaning up the mirrors with shaving cream….it’s the first time i heard something like that lol
