My mother asked me to peel off some onions. I feel so hesitant to do it because it will make me cry. With a quick of weirdness, I use the face shield that I bought two days ago. Is that a brilliant idea? By the way, today is the official day to use face shields in my country.
Are you required to use a face mask with a face shield?

@rhuenz I agree with you. I was just going to say the same thing. It always works for me.

@rhuenz Yes it works dear. You could soak it for a few minutes like she said or usually I just peel the onions first and then wash it slightly in running tap water, just to save the time taken for keeping it soaked.

@amitkokiladitya I got an idea that we can use it for frying some food, too.

@Shavkat Never tried it,but remember one of my friends having said that if before peeling 9f an onion,if you dip your hands and the knife in water and peel off the onion under water, it will not bring tears to your eyes.Don't know if what my friend said was true.

@Shivram59 I think the aroma will change if we do this way.

Face shield will not protect you from the burning sensation due to the onions. The best way is to freeze the onions for 10 minutes before pealing or chopping.

@Shavkat just for 10 minutes you need to keep the onions you wish to cut. This will prevent the vapourising of the irritation causing chemicals in the onion cells that leak out while you cut the onion.

I hope the shield helps. We are required to wear masks and face shields, but you need to have your face covered.

@Shavkat That's for sure, I can't even notice them with regular face masks.
