Really thanks you guys for your extensive replies!</p> <p>Regarding contact lens.. I'm actually thinking of getting it to eliminate this problem. But lol, yea.. I'm a noob with contacts man.. Tried it a few times 2 years back before NS, found it really difficult to get it in. But I'll guess I'll&nbsp;be trying contacts again since I'm now out of NS. However, I still would not prefer to depend on contacts all my life&nbsp;IF there's a choice. :p I don't like the idea of touching my eyeballs&nbsp;most of&nbsp;the time.. Noob?&nbsp;I'm alright.</p> <p>Earhooks, that's another method I tried.. but I would like to listen for more alternatives because the hook sticking out, is more or less obvious at the side.</p> <p>And yea, I've tried buying the blue absorbent pad to remove the oil on the face, at the same time tried it on the nose piece,&nbsp;it did help for awhile.. and yea.. only awhile.. :S</p> <p>Regarding <a href="http://www.sgforums.com/users/133646" rel= "nofollow">viciouskitty74</a>&nbsp;reply, I guess I may give it a&nbsp;try that to reduce my oily face problem.</p> <p>However, I just would like to see how you guys solve this problem. and I just realised that there's something such as a silicon nose-piece?

I realise that when I wear spectacles, the 2 portruding oval-shaped piece that sits nicely on your nose, will turn oily easily due to my easily oily nose. Because of that, my spectacle usually slowly slip down my nose, causing great discomfort to me.&nbsp;Then I'll have to push the spectacle up, before waiting for another minute before it starts coming down again.&nbsp;One solution I know is wearing spectacle hooks, which is black in colour.. and it doesn't really look nice too.
