keeping ears warm

I'm hoping to keep my bike commute going through part of the winter.
Does anyone have suggestions for keeping ears warm ?? I've tried a
head/ear band, but that doesn't fit well between my helmet and glasses
-- keeps pressing my glasses down uncomfortably into my nose. I don't
think it is cold enough yet for a balaclava; do they make narrower
earbands for this purpose for cyclists ?? I have the same problem
running if I wear the earband and a hat.

Thanks,

Have you tried a thin balaclava without putting it fully over your
head? Instead of putting your head through the neck opening, put your
head through the face opening and let the neck material hang off the
back.
