Padding: Does It Always Enhance My Bust?

Most women want the same things out of their bras: comfort, support, and a flattering shape. Some women also hope for a little extra lift that enhances her breast. Other women hope to have their breasts look as natural as possible, with no extra bulk. If you’re one of the latter ladies, you may think this means you have to avoid padding in your bra. On #ShopNTL, we want to diminish the idea that padding automatically means added bulk, with our selection of bras having varying degrees of padding.

Padding typically acts like a type of cushion on the breast, which is meant to feel like a comfortable hug that also helps shape the breast. Some bras might have a thin layer of padding to round you out. Others might have extra padding near the bottom that helps push up the breasts to the top of the bra, making your breasts appear bigger and perkier. So depending on what look you’re going for, you want to look at the thickness of the padding.

And so, women who don’t want to appear bigger can still wear padded bras! And if you want that extra push power, all the power to you! Let us show you some of the different options available for all women on #ShopNTL.

Your Bra Underwire Contour Bra by Warner’s

Look smooth and rounded underneath all of your favourite outfits with foam lined cups and smoothing wings. The thin cups will help give you the shape you want, but they won’t add any extra layers to your breasts. The little plunge effect is super sexy with a hint of natural cleavage peeking out. This is a bra you’ll want for everyday wear.

Amourette Spotlight Lace Padded Bra by Triumph Lingerie

This lovely purple number takes the aesthetics of a bralette and the look of a non-padded bra and puts in a thin layer of padding for the perfect mix. You can have that natural look with the safety and comfort of padding and a whole lot of beautiful lace. You’ll get that little bit of lift you want that keeps you perky, but not over the top.

When you want that voluminous vixen look, here’s a bra that’ll give you that and more with comfort and a fabulous selection of colours. The cups are built with padding and little “cookies” that bring the lift to another dimension. Just remember that it’s very important the fit is right with a push-up bra so you can avoid spilling out of the top and getting cut off at the top of the breast. Your low cut tops will love this bra as it’ll fill them out quite nicely.
