CENSORED. NIPPLE PASTIES

Nipple pasties have come through to replace the bras. Some nipple pasties include; adhesive covers, disposable pasties, and reusable pasties.

Gone are the days when one had to whine over the discomfort you would always feel when wearing the bras. Some bras were too heavy on the breast, and the bras with the underwire were feared because of the myth that it can cause cancer. Some would cause a wardrobe malfunction as the straps were not compatible with the dressing, or they would come off and cause an embarrassment. The nipple pasties came in great handy for such occasions. The great thing is that they come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. The pasties are meant to be worn to cover the nipple. Therefore, this means they are unisex and can be worn by both genders.

Types of nipple pasties

There are different types of nipple pasties. They include the nipple adhesive nipple pasties, the disposable pasties, and the reusable pasties.

The Reusable Adhesive Nipple Pasties

The best thing about these pasties is they come in different shapes. They have small and big pasties. They are waterproof and therefore do not wear off when you sweat. They are a guarantee that they can stay put when you sweat; there are no embarrassments you are likely to get. According to Clement & Clement (2011), adhesve nipple pasties can not be visible under your clothing. Most people are afraid of wearing them with white shirts as they believe they can be seen. Fret not because they will not try to show out on your clothing. They can be washed and reused. The adhesive part will not be interfered with when washed. They help you avoid the stares people give you if you go without your bra and your nipples are free.

The Disposable Adhesive Nipple Pasties

Adhesive nipple pasties cannot be recycled or reused. You only get to use them once, and their importance is done. According to Soto et al. (2013), the nipple pasties have a satin material and adhesive on the other side. They look like flower petals and come in different colors. The adhesive part cannot wear off even after sweating on it. It is very strong. Be sure to use one of the same colors as the cloth you have put on. This is to avoid it being visible on the shirt if you have started to sweat.

Silicone Nipple Pasties

These nipple pasties can come in great handy when you plan to wear clothes that do not require the bra's straps. According to Ballou (2009), You should buy nipple pasties with long-lasting glue to avoid them slipping off when having fun. Buy high-quality nipple pasties that can stay for long without losing their stickiness. Ensure you clean your nipple covers once you have removed them. This will make it easy for them to last longer and prevent you from budgeting for a new one. Some of them may be big and offer a little support to the breast. These types can also cover those with a fuller chest and can even lift the breast and make you have a great cleavage underneath that top that you are wearing.

Tips On How to Choose the Best Nipple Pasties

Size

People have different sizes and shapes when it comes to breast cups. Some have a larger cup than size D. The realistic thing to do is to choose the nipple pasties that have the sizes that fit all cups.

Material

According to Branson et al. (2005), choose and buy nipple pasties that have a comfortable material on your skin and will not wear off when you start to sweat. The best one is the silicone type because they have a gel-like feature. Try to have the one you know won't be visible, especially on your white shirts.

Reusable And Washable

The best nipple pasties you need to buy are the ones you know can be washed and be s much time as you want. As much as you check on the material, try and check if you can reuse them. You do not want to invest in something so expensive and get to dispose of it off once you have worn it. Some nipple pasties, such as the fabric one, cannot be washed and worn because their stickiness will wear off.

How to clean your pasties to keep them sticky

1. Please make sure the adhesive part is wet with warm water and apply some drops of laundry soap to them.
2. Remove any dust particles, hair, or oil that seems to be present on the adhesive side. Make sure you use your hands to remove them.
3. Rinse them thoroughly until you see no soap forms or residue left on the pasties.
4. Put them to dry in a clean area free from dust particles. Make sure the adhesive part is facing upwards.
5. Once they have dried up, make sure that you put them back on the original packaging bag that you bought them with or even in a plastic bag that you feel is safe enough for them. Ensure the place where you have stored them is free from any dust particles.

Conclusion

Nipple pasties have made people more confident in themselves. Many times, women were being shamed for showing off their nipples. Most of them did not do this knowingly. They did not know how to deal with it because, at times, they had bras on, but it didn't help them in any way. The great thing about some pasties is that some even do the bra's work by lifting the breast. They offer some comfort that you may lack. You should also check if they are reusable or can be disposed of. The ones that you can dispose of can be very affordable, but the thing is, they are not as supportive as the reusable ones. The best one seems to be the reusable ones if you plan to buy those that can stay for long and be used again. This is because you can wash them again and still do the work they were intended to do.
