I've had three different helmets and the only thing that helped me was a helmet skirt. Also Bell has the best seal around the shield and impact had the worst. You can also add some thin foam stripping around your eyeport.

The best thing you can do is get a helmet that accepts a blower. That allowed me to race with contact lenses!

I recently started using the blower system in my helmet and with positive pressure it eleminates nearly all dirt and dust. Im just mad i didnt get it years ago. I would also leave tracks and cough for days after breathing so much dirt and now that not even an issue.I dont use a helmet skirt but my helmet does have a nice chin cover.
