2. The comfort advantage of silicone breast stickers
2.1 Material characteristics
The comfort advantage of silicone breast stickers mainly comes from its unique material characteristics.
Softness and elasticity: Silicone material has excellent softness and elasticity, which can fit the chest curve closely and provide natural support and shaping effects. This softness makes the wearer almost unable to feel the presence of the breast sticker during activities, greatly improving the comfort.
Thin and non-feeling: The thickness of silicone breast stickers is usually between 2-5 mm, light weight, and almost non-feeling after wearing, which will not bring additional burden to the chest. In contrast, traditional underwear may cause a certain sense of oppression on the chest and shoulders due to the presence of shoulder straps and steel rings, while silicone breast stickers completely avoid this problem.
Breathability and skin-friendliness: Although the breathability of pure silicone is relatively poor, modern silicone breast stickers have been optimized in design. Some products use a composite material of silicone and cloth to improve breathability and comfort. In addition, the silicone material itself has good skin-friendliness and will not irritate the skin, making it suitable for long-term wear.
Viscosity and stability: The sticky design of the silicone breast sticker allows it to fit firmly on the skin and will not easily slip or shift. In daily activities, exercise, and even some more intense movements, it can maintain a stable wearing effect, avoiding the embarrassing situation of exposure or shoulder straps slipping off that may occur in traditional underwear.
2.2 Comparison with traditional underwear

Traditional underwear: The shoulder straps may tighten the shoulders, and long-term wearing will cause shoulder pain; the steel ring has a certain sense of pressure on the chest, especially when exercising or bending over, it may feel uncomfortable.

Breathability:
Traditional underwear: Especially thick bras or styles with steel rings have poor breathability. Long-term wearing can easily cause sweating and moisture on the chest skin, and even cause skin problems.
Silicone breast stickers: Although the breathability of pure silicone is limited, modern products have improved the breathability of some silicone breast stickers through design optimization and material improvement. Moreover, due to its light and thin characteristics, it will not form a stuffy environment on the chest like traditional underwear, which is relatively more comfortable.

Silicone breast stickers: Through special shape design and viscosity, they can effectively gather and lift the breasts, forming a clear cleavage and a straight breast shape. Especially for users with small breasts or users with outward expansion and slightly sagging breasts, the gathering and lifting effects of silicone breast stickers are more significant.

You can use a mild cleansing product to clean the chest skin, and then gently dry it with a soft towel to ensure that the skin is dry and oil-free. Do not apply talcum powder, moisturizer, moisturizer or perfume near the chest to avoid affecting the stickiness of the breast stickers.

Then fit the other cup on the chest in the same way.
Fixing the cup: Press the cup tightly with both hands for a few seconds to ensure that the bra is firmly adhered to the skin. In order to make the chest look fuller, the cup should be placed slightly higher than the chest, and the connecting buckle should be angled 45 degrees downward, which can better set off the curve of the chest.
Connecting buckle: If it is a silicone breast sticker with a front buckle, after adjusting the position of both sides to make the chest shape symmetrical, fasten the connecting buckle of the invisible bra.
