Mask Defog and Care Products
Most lenses need to be cleaned to remove silicone preservatives and materials that may be left from the manufacturing process.*  If this is not done, the defog product of your choice simply can't do the job.  Put a little white (non-gel) toothpaste on the lenses and rub it around well with your fingers.  Then, rinse the lenses with fresh water and gently dry the mask with a towel or let it air dry before putting it in the mask box and packing it in your bag.
*There are a few exceptions (such as most masks with colored lenses) that should not be cleaned with the "toothpaste trick".  These masks will usually come with special instructions or cleaning materials.
