One drop of Johnson's Baby Shampoo (No Tears variety) per lens. Smear it around and rinse with water (salt or fresh).
There appear to be medical reasons to avoid using spit. Nevertheless, a lot of divers do it that way.
I don't think Sea Drops works nearly as well as baby shampoo and the shampoo is cheaper.

Wow.....what a DB
This is the simplest and most effective way for me. I have tried the "expensive" solutions that you can buy, but none have worked as well for me as what I produce myself.
Toothpaste (non gel). Cleaned with a toothbrush. If that doesn't work, your LDS will have a scrub for it that's like the toothpaste. I normally give it a good scrub and let the paste sit in it for an hour or two then rinse. Before diving I'll use "spit" defogger (from my LDS). It's clear gel. Swab it around good. Rinse and go... if it doesn't work well for the first dive... repeat and it SHOULD work well there after.

I use baby shampoo as well. Usually I mix about 25 or 30% baby shampoo with water and squirt a little in each lens, swish it around and dump it out. Seems to work great. The one time I forgot to bring it, I used spit, which also works well, but doesn't smell as pretty. No use for commercial drops anymore.
