I’ve been trying to reduce my face touching for more than 6 months now as part of a project to get less colds and only managed to really get there in the last 2 months.
I also work in a lab with gloves where I have to take care what I touch a lot, which is daily training. Still I have found it frustratingly hard not to do it, so I don’t know if many people can quickly train themselves.
Things that help me:
have paper tissues around and use only them to rub nose/eyes
scratch face with inside of clothes (less obtrusive than it sounds)
wear gloves in public (I guess that works because my hands feel different, like in the lab)
watch out for other people in public doing it wrong (keeps it on my mind)
