    Saw an ad for them recently. Anyone tried them? I imagine a good wipeout or a wave to the face would tear them up, possibly lose them of course too. It'd be nice to not have sun glare off the ocean in a long session..

    I just use croakies. These work the best:

    You guys don't use eye black during sunrise sessions?

    This is how I look while wearing it.

    Shoot I'll have to try that...the croakies should help keep the paint on too.
