For strappy tops you can wear with confidence, the Buub Body Tape is a game-changer for those with big boobs. It’s extra kind to skin, resulting in absolutely zero redness or irritation, and the tape somehow feels as supportive as an actual bra. The quality of this product is impressive, and you don’t need as much as you might initially think, since the tape is super-stretchy while remaining strong and supportive. Make sure your skin is clean and dry and free from oil-based product, as this may affect the adhesive on the tape.

Consider the amount of time you will be wearing boob tape. It is recommended you limit the duration during warmer months as higher temperatures can increase the risk of skin irritation. Perky Pear uses ‘Heat Activation Adhesive Technology’ which bonds gently to the skin when activated, helping lift your breasts and ensure they stay put all night long. Unlike pre-cut shapes, the tape ensures that no extra bulk is added to the boobs – a god-send for those with larger breasts. A staple for your wardrobe, we love the impressive lift and comfort Buub’s tape delivers, alongside the fact that it’s completely invisible. Customers welcomed that it was easy to remove following a soak in the bath, and agreed that they’d be gifting this body tape to all of their girlfriends.
