Tips & "Nips"
General:
- Do not apply to sunburnt, broken or irritated skin
- Make sure the area of application is free from oils/moisturizers
- Use nipple covers for extra protection
- Do not wear for more than 7 hours
- Don’t rush the tape application or removal process. Give yourself ample time
- Practice makes perfect
Application:
- Round the corners
...of each strip before application to give you a seamless finish and to avoid lifting edges. Straight edges are more prone to lift and pull against your clothes.
- Stretch your body part
...and don’t over stretch the tape. Over stretching the tape can result in flat look of the breast.
- Avoid stretching the ‘main support’ of your tape
...to prevent significant tension on and excess skin traction.
Removal:
- Peel off your tape slowly
...whilst supporting your skin behind the tape. This avoids microtears and irritation.
- Soak the adhesive with moisturizer, oil or coconut oil
...to breakdown the adhesive, allowing an easier removal process.
- Do not use the ripping band aid method
