A common issue for runners is getting sweat in your eyes. It stings and blurs your vision. Outside of wiping the sweat off from your forehead with your shirt, there are some common products that will help aid you along with some new products.
One solution is sweatbands and bandanas. They are cheap and come in a variety of colors and fashions. You can easily throw them in the wash when done using them as well.
Halo Headband
A step up from the sweatband is the Halo Headband. It has a sweat block technology in which fabrics in the headband help wick away sweat. It also has a seal within the headband to help redirect sweat away from your face.

A running hat and visor are popular choices. A lot of companies make them so they come in all sorts of styles. Most running hats and visors have a sweat band sewn within that helps absorb sweat. The running hats and visors also are great in blocking the sun as well.

Sweat GUTR
One of the most interesting products out there is the Sweat GUTR. It wraps around forehead like a sweatband and instead of absorbing the sweat it channels the sweat away from your eyes.
Last solution to prevent sweat from dripping in your eyes is the easiest and cheapest of all. Using Vasoline or lip balm make a horizontal line across your forehead not far above your eyebrows. The sweat will get trapped and drip off before reaching your eyes.

Thank you Ryan, We in Cuba do not have access to any of these products but vaseline. I will try it. I normally use a rag band around my head, but sometimes bothers me. Best regads from Havana.
Try sQoosh Bands! They really work. Look on Facebook, Ilenes Gator Store .com or Youtube!
