Colour: Transparent | Size: One size | Special feature: Double sided | Length: 2m long What we like 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. But a lot of this is mind over body. Once you become accustomed to not wearing a bra, you’ll feel how much your boobs are wholly part of you, like your fingers or legs. You don’t think about those body parts every day just because they’re not covered, right?

Whether you wear a bra every day or not is up to you. But I can attest that my opinions of bras changed drastically when I realized the bras I was wearing were two cup sizes too small for me and made the right, oh-my-god, life-changing adjustments.

1. Best overall boob tape: Perky Pear Diy Breast Lift Tape

Gaffer tape: The gold standard for celebrities on the red carpet, gaffer tape is one of the strongest options for taping your breasts. However, it can cause skin irritation, so proceed with caution if you have sensitive skin or an allergy to adhesive. You can find gaffer tape in almost any color. Like any garment, nightgowns come in a wide variety of different fabrics that each has its own advantages. I've worn Perky Pear tapes (I’m a 32F) and they were surprisingly supportive. They're not cheap and you have to be careful to get them on in the right place the first time, but for when you've got a dress that just won't work with a bra they're well worth it. Good lift and they stay put.” (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Lellochip)

Nood is proud of the sweatproof nature of their Lift & Shape Bra, stating that it’s guaranteed to stay in place no matter what the temperature is outside. The whole point of boob tape is for your breasts to be secure, but that doesn't mean you should wrap yourself up like you're in a body cast. While wearing boob tape, you should be comfortable and still have a full range of motion. Not only can taping too tightly make you stiff and uncomfortable, it can also restrict blood flow, impact your ability to breathe, and irritate your skin. It’s also important to note that of the women who were interviewed (the number of which fluctuated from 100 to over 300, depending on the media outlet reporting the story), were all under 35 years old.
