We carry Nippies in our Poʻipū shop. They are the covers and the breast tape B-Six makes for outfits that do not work with a bra. Four Nippies pieces are in the shop today, from $25 to $34. Here is each one with today's price and the shades and sizes in stock, checked today.
| Piece | In the shop today | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Nippies Skin Adhesive Cover | Creme, Caramel and Coco, both sizes | $28 |
| Nippies Skin Lift | Creme, Caramel and Coco, both sizes | $34 |
| Nippies Tape | Creme, three left | $25 |
| Nippie Skin Tape | Coco, three left | $25 |
The Nippies Skin Adhesive Cover is $28. All three shades, Creme, Caramel and Coco, are in the shop today, and each shade is here in both Size 1 and Size 2. B-Six describes it as ultra-thin, matte silicone that blends seamlessly into skin for undetectable coverage, made with the brand's Invisifeel technology. The brand says you can wash and reuse them, and that the adhesive version sticks extra securely when you need a little coverage but cannot, or do not want to, wear a bra.
On sizing, B-Six keeps it simple: the 3 inch cover is designed to fit A to C cups, the 4 inch is the best choice for D cups and up, and if you are unsure which will work, the brand recommends the larger size. If you are after the Coco, Size 2 is down to three in the shop.
The Nippies Skin Lift is $34 and comes in the same three shades. Both sizes of every shade are in the shop today, though a few are down to two. B-Six makes the Lift from 100 percent medical grade silicone, the same matte, ultrathin material as the covers, with a pull tab on top. The brand's own description is stick, lift, and go: full coverage and a gravity boost without having to wear a bra, with a skin safe adhesive that stays on firmly and peels off gently.
We have the Nippies breast tape in two shades today: Creme and Coco, $25 a roll, with three rolls of each left in the shop. B-Six says the tape can be cut into strips and layered for extra support, and that it is made from premium nylon with a medical grade, hypoallergenic adhesive. Each roll is 16.5 feet long and 2 inches wide. The brand also calls it water resistant and says it works under a one piece or a two piece swimsuit. B-Six's own tip on shades is to go light for bright shirts and swimsuits and dark for evening gowns and dresses.
One note straight from the brand before you wear it out: test a small patch of tape on your skin for 24 hours first, and do not put it over broken, damaged or sunburned skin.
All four pieces above are in the Poʻipū shop today, and each one links to its page on our site if you are shopping from somewhere else. Our island is still recovering, and Poʻipū has been quiet since the storm. Every dollar spent with a local shop helps keep our island moving. Come see us in Poʻipū, or shop online from wherever you are.
