Hi girls,
I've finished 19th week of Brava wear, and I'm already few days sleeping without Brava. Maybe my advices will help you regading skin reactions. I've experieced different kinds: bloody moles, redness under the rims, scars deformation, allergy, rush. And I also experienced reagaring breast touching the domes.
Do not stop to wear the brava even if your breasts/nipples are touching domes. It is very important not to stop, since you will loose swelling your gain with so much efforts. if you will stop, then you will start all over again. Why support advice to stop? I thought on this for a while... I think, because of the sweat that is gatheing inside of the dome. And if skin is touching sweaty plastic cup - you will got severe rush or pain. So they advice you to stop wearing domes to be on the safe side. So you will not sue them, or smth like this. I was touching with nipples and they hurted so much afterwards. So I used honey masks. See below. And also I've put a panty liner to absorb sweat inside of the dome, where my breasts were touching them, and my rush went down easily...
Here are my advices:
- 1 - Regarding the redress under the rims. I found out that if after the putting domes off, I'll use 2 pieces of ice (just water or water with herbs), and will wash my decolette and those marks with ice... The rims are dissapearing WAY FASTER. It was like 2 hours and they are competely gone. It was a wonderfull trick for the party on Saturday. I would wear domes on Friday evening, then will wear it just till Saturday 5pm. Then I will wash myself with ice. And on 7-8pm I've ready for a night out. With big, not marked breasts
- 2 - This is the thing I was using all the time. The Mepiform tape. First I was taping only my scars under the breasts. But then I realized that this tape works wonderfully under the very edge of the domes. It really helped me to wear Domes for 24, 36 and even 56 hours... And the readness would be less visible. I found image of woman waring Mepiform on her breasts.
-3 - My nipples hurt so much at the beginning. Then I read one girl advice to make a honey masks. And it was fantastic. 10-30 minutes of honey on nipples ould let pain away. And after a week on those masks skin on nipples become more elastic, and I fougot about this problem
-4 - Aloe vera gel. Probably you know. I've used it instead of Brava skin prep and those prep wipes. A FUGE difference. It saved me from rush and allergic reactions (drug store creams didn't work for me). Here is picture of my cream, but I think any other organic aloe vera gel will also work miracles.
