So what bra do you wear with your RSVP-ready look? Answer: a self-adhesive bra.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sometimes a strapless bra just won\u2019t do and going bra-less isn&#8217;t an option&#8211;we hear you. Ahead, your best options for sticky bras&#8211;and what you need to know before wearing one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Stick With You Nude Backless Strapless Bra<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/stick-with-you-nude-backless-strapless-bra\/637652.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-228299 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/bra1.png\" alt=\"stick with you nude backless bra\" width=\"600\" height=\"902\" \/><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Great for backless\/open back clothing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/stick-with-you-nude-backless-strapless-bra\/637652.html\">This bra<\/a> gives you lift, support and separation, just like a regular bra. The molded cups also give you nip coverage. Everyone needs one of these sticky bras: It\u2019s as useful for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/fashion\/what-to-wear-for-every-type-of-wedding-dress-code-this-season\/\">black-tie events<\/a> as it is for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/893\/summer-fashion.html\">summer<\/a> tops. Follow the washing\/storage directions and this can last for years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">*Tip: Scoop your breasts into the cups first. Then, while leaning forward a bit, stick the wings firmly to your sides.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Nubra Seamless Adhesive Bra<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/nubra-seamless-black-adhesive-bra\/235874.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-228301 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/bra2.png\" alt=\"nubra adhesive bra\" width=\"600\" height=\"902\" \/><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When your outfit is open at the back and sides, or it&#8217;s low-cut under the arm and maybe even has a plunge front, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/nubra-seamless-black-adhesive-bra\/235874.html\">this super minimal bra<\/a> covers just the front of the breasts. With the clip in the front, it gives some lift and shaping, but mainly provides nip coverage and smoothness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">*Tip: While leaning forward, put each adhesive cup on separately. Then clip them together at the front and you\u2019ll see the lift and support magically happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Hollywood No-Show Petal Concealers<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/hollywood-no-show-petal-concealers\/180178.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-228302 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/bra3.png\" alt=\"hollywood no show petal concealers\" width=\"600\" height=\"899\" \/><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When no self-adhesive bra will work with your look, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/hollywood-no-show-petal-concealers\/180178.html\">concealers<\/a> do just that&#8211;conceal the nips. They&#8217;re like super-thin adhesive paper strips that cover nip texture and color.\u00a0 The center is not sticky and they don\u2019t hurt when removed (don\u2019t worry). Inexpensive and disposable, these belong in everyone\u2019s styling kit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">*Tip: After unpeeling the paper backing, put the adhesive free center of the petal over the center of your nipple first. Then press it outward from the center to get the petal to lay as flat as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Hollywood Breast Lift Tape<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/hollywood-breast-lift-tape\/240034.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-228303 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/bra4.png\" alt=\"hollywood lift tape\" width=\"600\" height=\"903\" \/><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/products\/hollywood-breast-lift-tape\/240034.html\">tape<\/a> is great paired with the No-Show Petal Concealers when you need a little lift. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Hollywood-Fashion-Secrets-Breast-Lift\/dp\/B005WJQUJ4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">adhesive strips<\/a> go at the top of your breast to literally lift the breasts up by about \u00bd-1 inch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">*Tip: These are not great for large-breasted girls (or those with heavy breasts), but they are awesome for those of you that just need a little extra <em>oomph<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>What to remember about self-adhesive bras:<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Adhesive bras only work on clean dry skin. It\u2019s the adhesive to skin contact that keeps them adhered. Do NOT use the following products where the adhesive will touch. (If you don\u2019t follow this tip, the bra will slip!)<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oils<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lotions<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Deodorants<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Perfume<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Powder<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Have a question about sticky bras or any other intimates?
