I've tried lots of different kinds of anti-fog products, including Never 
Fog, Fog Clear, Zooke etc., and they all do the same thing.   Maybe I'm a 
heavy breather or something, but they work fine at first, then a layer of 
clear condensation forms on the inside until I can't see anything.  I always 
have to ride with my faceshield cracked open a little.  I have used a Fog 
City shield, and it works, but I prefer not to have the extra layer to look 
through.  I recently bought some of this stuff, and tried it on a cold, 
foggy Oregon morning.

It was a little tricky to apply correctly, but once I got it on there  I 
could leave my faceshield closed at a stoplight, ogle the spandex-clad 
bicycle guys along the road, and still no fog!
