Guides
Everything we know about wearing it, in one place.
Everything we have written about wearing, choosing and keeping adhesive underwear. Short, specific, and written by the people who make it.
01
Choosing
Which product, which shape, which size. Start here if you have a dress and no idea what goes under it.
-
Which insert is mine
They look alike in a photograph and behave nothing alike on. Pick by the neckline you are dressing for, then let the size guide pick the size.
-
Size guide
Insert size follows cup volume, so your band counts as much as your cup. Pick both and we tell you which one is yours.
-
Sticky bra, adhesive bra, silicone bra: what the names mean
Six names for what turns out to be three products. What each word means, where they overlap, and which one each dress wants.
-
What are chicken cutlets, and which one is yours
The nickname stuck; the product moved on. What a modern silicone insert is, what it does, and how to choose between the four shapes.
-
The best nipple covers for every fabric
The best cover is the one you forget you are wearing. That comes down to material, size, shade and placement, and it changes with the fabric over it.
-
The best sticky bra for large breasts
Past a D cup the problem is not stickiness, it is weight. What works is a setup, not one product: a bra sized by cup, placed low, with an insert or tape carrying the load.
02
By occasion
The backless dress, the pool, the two sides that do not match.
-
What to wear under a backless dress
A backless dress removes the one thing a bra needs: somewhere to anchor. Four ways to hold up without it, sorted by cup size and how open the front is.
-
Swimsuit push-up inserts that stay in the water
The pads sewn into a swimsuit float, fold and migrate. A silicone insert sticks to skin and suit, stays put through a swim, and adds the lift the suit never had.
-
Bra inserts for uneven breasts
Almost everyone has one breast larger than the other. A regular bra hides it; a strapless dress does not. The fix is a single insert on the smaller side, chosen for the size of the gap.
03
Wearing
Prep the skin, place it low, press, clasp last. The method for each product.
-
How to wear it
Clean dry skin, peel from the corner, place low, then lift. Five minutes the first time, two after that.
-
How to wear a sticky bra so it stays on
A sticky bra that falls off is almost never a bad bra. It is a bra put on wrong, or on skin that was not ready. The order that works, and what to do when it still will not hold.
-
How to use boob tape for any neckline
Tape goes wherever the dress needs it and nowhere else. It lifts, it holds a neckline flat, and it takes ten minutes the first time. The method, then the pattern for each neckline.
04
Keeping
The wash that brings the grip back, and the routine that gets you to 50 wears.
-
How to clean a sticky bra and silicone bra inserts
The adhesive is not used up by wearing it. It is covered up by skin oil, lint and dust. Wash it right after every wear and the grip comes back, up to 50 times.
-
Care & reuse
Wash after every wear, air dry adhesive side up, back on the film. Up to 50 wears. The short version for your drawer.
05
Comparing
Side by side with the brands you were already looking at. Just the sizes, shades, prices and terms.
