Taking a hot shower after a long day can be relaxing. It can also be frustrating, especially when you're greeted with foggy glass. Don't keep using your towel to wipe away the fog. Instead, use one of these simple tricks to eliminate foggy mirrors altogether.
Rub Some Soap on Them
Your bath soap is for more than just washing. It's also great at de-fogging your mirrors and glass shower enclosures. The next time you wash your bathroom glass, rub some soap on it when you're done. Simply wet the bar of soap and rub it all over the glass. Wipe the excess soap off with a clean towel. Your mirrors and shower enclosures will be crystal clear and fog-free.
Reach For the Shaving Cream
Shaving cream is another easy way to keep your glass from fogging over when you shower. Place a generous amount of shaving cream in your hand and apply it to your bathroom shower enclosures. Leave it on the glass for a few minutes and then wipe away with a clean cloth. Don't rinse the glass. The next time you shower, you'll notice that the glass doesn't fog over.
Go Cold First
If you're like most people, you turn both the hot and cold water on to fill your tub. That practice can actual cause the fog to accumulate. When you fill your bathtub, run the cold water first. Fill your tub with a few inches of cold water before you turn on the hot water. Your water will still get to the proper temperature but you won't have to deal with the foggy glass when you're done.
Burn a Candle
The candles that you save for a relaxing bath can also be used to keep the fog off your shower enclosures. The smoke from the candles will coat the glass and prevent the foggy build-up. You only need to burn one candle to get relief from foggy build-up.
