Im in pain - Forehead hurts- help - solutions anyone

Well the temps now are -5 C, and with the windchill that drops down to -8. In a nutshell, it's cold.

Im wearing two balaclava's, and a thinsulate bandana and ski goggles. My forehead however is cold. It gets so cold it starts to hurt. Am I just not cut out for these temps? Am I not warm enough? Or is the sweat from my head making it cold?

Earlier this year I cut a few holes into my goggles..to help with ventilation. Im assuming some cold air was entering through there. Tonight I resealed them...but my head still hurts.

Has anyone ever had a similar problem with their forehead hurting due to the cold?

Below are my goggles. Could the cold air hurting my head be coming from the cut outs i made? Since this photo was taken, the goggles have a 3rd cut-out..the centre hole foam is also removed.
