Rash

[Veronica 1]

I recently got my silicone forms and I love them but I am finding that if I wear them for an extended period of time I get a rash around the bottom area of contact with my chest. I have cleaned them with soap and water, used alcohol on my skin and I still get the rash after about 6-8 hours of use. Does anyone have any tips?

I'm only guessing but I would think after 8 hours, it's a sweat rash.

Unless you need them to stick as such, try putting a layer of tissue between them and you.

And if it works we'll patent "boob sweat rash pads".



(I'll work on the name.)

:D

Good idea, how about naming them Ti**y Tisues?

I had that same problem. I also got red burning on my thighs when wearing stay up nylons with that little strip of silicon that keep them from slipping.
My so;ution was to buy "Pals" breast forms, and use pantihose. I have had my pal;s for almost 5 yrs. without a problem.

I discovered that I was alergic to silicon....Bummer..

I discovered when I slept in my forms, that the chafing as I moved in my sleep, gave me a rash. Even some blisters. Nothing to do with perspiration in my case. Don't know if this is similar to your problem. However, I solved my problem by wearing tite sports bras to bed. My bras weren't holding the forms tite enough against my ribs. Besides, I LOVE the tite feel of the sports bra. I would imagine u move around more during the day, than I do in my sleep. U might see if a tite sports bra works for u. I wear a "small" so it really hugs those forms rite to me.

I agree with Julie York, I think it's a sweat rash. Do the tissue paper thing or a lot of talcum powder.

Are you using adhesive? A lot of people get rashes from the adhesives.

Are you using tape? A lot of people get rashes from the tape.

Or, you may just have very sensitive skin. Try cortisone Cream and see if the rash dissappears overnight.

I use a little talcom now and then(scenteds nice)and that seems to help especially when sweating, good luck and hope this tip helps, Charolette

Well, must be sweat rash. I have had my forms on for about 16 hours now and I have been wearing a top with a built in bra, (is that what is referred to as a shelf?), and no rash. The forms keep shifting, though, but I love the extra bounce the top gives. When I am wearing my bra, they are held in place much tighter and do not shift so I am guessing that the sweat is trapped under them, causing a type of heat rash. Thanks for the advice, girls, much appreciated.
