How to use Boob Tape

Boob tape, also known as Fashion Tape, Lingerie Tape and Body Tape is extremely popular to wear with dresses and tops with low backs, plunge necklines and wedding dresses. Most boob tape can be applied to the skin, clothes and underwear to hold everything in place. It can be tricky to get a good result first time, so we recommend practicing a few times to get the hang of it, especially if it's for a special outfit. How to use the boob tape will depend on the outfit you are wearing and where you need extra lift, support or stay in place.

It's basically like clear double sided sticky tape...but hypoallergenic.

How to apply Boob Tape:

• Cut off the required amount of boob tape you need to start with. You can use as much tape as you need, but it's good to apply the tape a little bit at a time to get the desired look.
• Remove one side of the paper and apply the tape to the skin, underwear or clothing.
• Remove the remaining paper from the top of the tape. If you want to add more than one piece of tape, repeat these steps again until you get the desired look.
• When you're ready, apply the tape to the other side of clothing and press down firmly to keep in place.
• ALL READY! 

REMOVING THE TAPE - Be extremely careful when you are removing the tape from your skin. It can be quite sore, so we recommend pealing it away very slowly. If you are having trouble getting the tape off, have a hot shower or soak in the bath.

How to tape up breasts for low cut tops:

Depending on the type of boob tape you buy, can depend on the length and width of it. Some of the smaller boob tape is only designed to keep your dress in place, stop it from slipping down or prevent gapping, whereas some of the bigger boob tape is designed to offer support and uplift to your breasts.

There is no perfect way to apply the tape, but we recommend cutting off a long strip that will sit under your breast and go up to your shoulder. Start by applying the tape to the bottom of the breast and lift up to the shoulder and stick down. You can apply more tape to your breast to get the desired look and shape you want.

Other Bra Solutions

There are a variety of other adhesive bra solutions on the market including stick-on-bras, invisible bras, foam cups and backless bras that may provide better results, or can be used in conjunction with boob tape.

The best stick-on-bras are cup sized stick-on-bras such as the Secret Weapons Nudi Boobies that will offer more support and shape, especially if you are fuller busted. Most stick-on-bras will only go up to an E/F cup because the can only offer so much support without the straps.

If you specifically want to hide your nipples, we recommend using nipple covers instead of boob tape. They are specially designed to discreetly cover up the nipples with soft silicone or fabric padding and tape. Shop Nipple Covers.

Tips on Taping:

• If you are concerned about getting a reaction from the boob tape, we advise doing a patch test first by applying a small piece of tape on your skin and leaving it on for roughly half an hour. 
• Don't apply boob tape over broken, damaged or sun-burnt skin, as this can be very sensitive.
• Before applying the boob tape, make sure the skin is clean and dry and not coated with moisturiser or powder. This can cause the boob tape not to stick.
• Avoid sticking boob tape to sensitive parts of your skin and areas where you can sweat a lot.
