If it doesn't work, it will be because the steam and moisture from your breath moves upward and has nowhere to go but the backside of the shield in front of your eyes.

I finally solved most of my fogging/icing problems by switching to ski goggles. Still happens, but only when the temp is well below zero and usually doesn't get bad enough to cause me issues before I get to work.
Well the nice thing is the visor flips up. I can just give it a shove at stop lights. I may have some old old ski goggles in the garage as well....either way I'm bumping up my fog fighting vigilance.
