I have a nice pair of inserts I put in my bras. They could be glued on, but I have never done that and am a little wary of it.
So I wonder -- for you ladies who have semi-permanently attached breasts, what's the difference between that and bra-stuffing? Is it really a different feel? More feminine? More natural? Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks, Julieanne
When I first started dressing up oh so many years ago, I stuffed a bra with socks, and it was enough to allow me to fantasize that I had breasts. But they weren't exactly much to look at. They also don't exhibit their own movement, like an actual breast would, even in a bra.
I moved to the poor girls' boobie then, filling the ends of a pair of pantyhose with rice, and tying off the end for a nice simulated nipple that actually showed up through some clothing quite nicely. They weighed about as much as a real breast, so they helped very much in the overall presentation and feel. That worked for many years.
Last year I went for the breast forms. And while they are not always quite as comfortable or convenient as the rice paddies, they move like real breasts, weigh the same as real breasts, and give a much more realistic presentation than anything else I've ever used. When glued even a little, they stay in place nicely, and allow for better freedom of movement, since you don't have to worry about losing one at an inopportune moment. So I'll never again use anything else.
Marla, Gotta agree with your last coment. Julieanne. after the whole stuffing phase for a few halloweens and the first few months of me being out I had a pair of foam rubber strap-on things that used to hurt my firends and my wife when they hugged me lol. when I went for a form fitting after I found my size the lady stuck them on me, and I throw my shirt on without a bra well let me tell u after about 20 mins u can really feel the differnce.. so now looking at my day to day things when I am in dance class they are stuck on to me in my sports bra and bounce very naturally oh yeah stairs and jogging are fun lol just one pointer if u are buying forms to be a lady get the right size for your frame.. if u are getting them to wear around the house then go for the bowling balls lol
have fun.. we want pictures if u get them
Having Natural 40 B's, I don't use Forms at all! And I do not use glue on my body! I do occasionally use push-up pads to enhance my cleavage, but that is all. I do own a pair of forms, but have only worn them once. They make me a size 42 D, which is way too big for me! I will stick with what God gave me!!:love:
I find they give me the look that works best for me. I've been fortunate to have a mentor who has always had a great eye for what works best on me and what forms accentuate my figure.
I don't like the idea of glue on my body so I much prefer the silicone implant type of form.
Same as the others... There was a whole sequence of trial and error before paying the bucks to get the forms. It was worth it. They give a very natural look and you can skip the glue, but if you want clevage the gluing helps. A little double sided tape or slight fogging of glue helps keep them in place if required, but a full coverage bra does well too without glue.
I started out with the water filled balloons and then bought the forms. I have never looked back and if they are c-cup or smaller they stay in place without the bra. I love my bras so I wear them when ever I dress even though I still "glue "them in place. They feel more like they belong. To each there own. Keli
If you ever try the breast forms , they will be like American Express, you won't leave home without them
Whenever I get the chance to wear them for an extended period of time (say, a weekend), I attach my forms. Why ? Because it's as close to having the real thing (feel/movement/weight) I can get.....short of implants or hormones. Plus, I can go bra-less if I want :daydreaming::DQuote:

I found an "Un bra" in a charity shop. The inserts are linked together and it has a self adhesive back which even works on my slightly hairy chest. The forms peel off without pain or discomfort but feel much more secure than unattached ones. Nice!

To be honest, I don't think that there is any comparison.Quote:

When I downsized, I went with ones that have a self-adhesive backing similar to the adhesive bras. These are great. You apply them to clean skin, and clean the backs with the special cleanser and a brush after each wearing. They won't quite stay on without any support, but even a little tiny bit of support will keep them on.
When my 2nd pair split with age, I bought another pair as close to the same as were available. A pair of moulded foam "sleep/travel" forms and a pair of nipples were included with them.
These days, I use an adhesive bra to pull up cleavage, then wear the self-adhesive forms over that. It works very well, is quite comfortable, and moves incredibly realistically, even when doing belly dance moves such as a "shoulder shimmy" (rotating the shoulders back and forth, which jiggles the breasts). :happy:
The foam forms are a reasonable shape but feel insecure and "dead" by comparison.

This is not the best for your shoulders and posture, and stretches your bra straps as well. Attaching them to your chest (which is not at all uncomfortable or irritating) puts their weight onto your chest muscles, where it belongs. And as others have said, the movement is more natural, you can skip the bra if your top has even a bit of support, and you don't have to worry about losing one on the dance floor!

i tried practically everything, but i have to vote for the breastforms.
I think its best to work with what you have before using forms, there are some products out there that can create a cleavage from nothing
There are several threads on this forum dealing with forms but I will just state that once you have glued on forms and gone braless while moving around doing everyday things you have not lived. The clothesd options are endless as you do not need to worry about the bra straps showing.
As only a part time dresser, and doing it less often, I am staying with water balloons, or gel ball toys.
I love my breastforms but have not tried to glue them in place as yet. Wish I had real breasts.....
It seems I am on my way through the trial and error phase. I just made my first set home made boobies.. I used rice filled socks, this is much better than just stuffing socks or something else in my bra so I'm happy so far. I'm looking foward to getting some forms, I know the day is coming, but I have to be careful as I'm still hiding it from my wife.
I'm tall and slender 6'2" so I don't know what size will look best on me. I think once I'm move on past my filled socks I'll do unglued if I can but if I have an outfit that will show cleavage I'll do what I need to get that look since I love clevage on a pretty girl.

So apart from the cost , the ease of use and kindness to skin ( and also allowing for transpore tape to create a cleveage underneath without over adhesion) I simply can,t endorse tapes enough . Good luck .
