FAQs
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BOOB TAPE AND DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE?
Boob tape is a bra alternative, a solution to all outfits that can’t be worn with a bra. It is a 5 meters tape roll that can be applied in diverse ways to lift the breasts in a desirable position and enhance cleavage. It lifts and strongly supports giving you a sexy lifted look.
Double sided tape keeps your clothes secure in place. It is sticky from both sides, so It sticks your clothes to your skin; preventing potential slips.
SHOULD WE APPLY NIPPLE COVERS UNDER THE TAPE?
Since the nipples are very sensitive, we recommend applying our cotton nipple covers under the tape. This will also ease removal.
CAN WE USE SILICONE NIPPLE COVERS UNDER THE BOOB TAPE?
The silicone nipple covers are not recommended to be used under the tape since they might get damaged when peeling off the tape.
WILL THE BOOB TAPE PEEL OFF IF I SWEAT?
Our boob tape is sweat proof and stays in place even when you sweat. It will not come off due to the adhesive technology and breathable cotton material that lets sweat evaporate.
CAN I WEAR BOOB TAPE TO THE POOL?
Note that the adhesive in the tape is activated by body heat and further clings to the skin with time. So make sure to apply boob tape at least 1-2 hours before being exposed to water. Our Boob tape is water resistant; it will stay intact if you go for a quick dip (in-out), but we do not recommend being exposed to water for a prolonged period of time.
HOW MANY APPLICATIONS WILL ONE BOOB TAPE ROLL GIVE?
On average, 1 roll gives 8-15 applications. The boob tape roll is 5 meters long and comes in 3 different widths. Choosing the right width for your breast size will give you more applications. For example, if you are a DD cup, we recommend using the widest 10 cm tape. If you choose the thinner tape, you’ll have to apply more strands to lift.
CAN I USE PERKY'S PRODUCTS IF I HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN?
Our products are hypoallergenic and tested safe on sensitive skin. However, for extra precautions, a patch test is always advised before use. Place a small strip of tape on your skin and leave it for 2-3 hours to test before wearing it for prolonged hours. If any irritation occurs, do not use the product.
CAN I USE THE BOOB TAPE IF I AM PREGNANT/BREASTFEEDING?
It is not recommended to use boob tape if you are pregnant/breastfeeding. Due to hormonal changes, pregnant/breastfeeding women's skin becomes more sensitive and might get irritated when in contact with substances that might normally not affect them.
WHY IS THE TAPE NOT STICKING TO MY SKIN?
It took us months of research and testing to ensure our tapes have the highest quality adhesive. When applied correctly, our tape is guaranteed NOT to peel off until you take it off yourself (even if you sweat). So why isn't it sticking to your skin? There are usually 4 reasons:
1) Repositioning the strip. Our tapes are made of 1 layer of adhesive which is optimal to ensure a strong hold and at the same time a safe and painless removal. So the tape only sticks once. If you misplace a strip, you will have to cut out a new one or else it won't stick well. Once it makes contact with the skin, it can't be removed and reapplied.
2) Having moisturizers/oils/perfume on your skin. Make sure your skin is clean and dry before applying the tape, or else the tape won't grip to your skin.
3) Sweating while applying the tape. While applying, your skin shouldn't be sweaty or feel damp as this won't let the tape stick well. Also, if you have previously sweat throughout the day, the sweat residue on your skin may affect the adhesion of the tape. Always make sure you start with clean, dry skin.
4) Having oily/moist skin. You may naturally have oily skin which will affect the tape's adhesion, or you may have oily skin due to the below reasons:
-Showering with a moisturizing shower cream
-Sun tanning using body oils which further moisturize the skin and cause oil buildup
In that case, we recommend cleansing with an alcohol residue-free astringent or non-moisturizing soap and water to remove excess oils from skin.
