How do the sizes run with the UpBra?
|
| The UpBra bra is amazingly adjustable. The cups are fully adjustable. And instead of ordinary hook and eye closures in the back, we use a back closure that is adjustable across 3 full sizes. If you have looked at our sizing chart and it seems you might be between two sizes, pick the larger size. It is better that you don't order an Upbra that is too small for you. |

How do I wash the UpBra?
|
Washing instructions are a funny thing... they almost make it sound like it will be a bad thing to wash you bra. Many women get the idea that frequent washings will cause their bras to wear out faster. In fact, washing your bra will extend its life. Bras sit against your skin and go around your body, and pick up natural body oils, deodorant, lotion and perspiration. The answer is to wash your bras after two or three wearings.
Now, when the label says "hand wash", we mean it. Wash it - with your hands, not the "hand-wash" cycle on you washing machine. The UpBra is delicate and special - like you - so please treat it as such. It's also not inexpensive, so protect your investment. The molded foam cups in the Upbra must be hand washed or the cup will become distorted. If your bra is fairly clean to begin with, the process is really nothing to fear. Just fill up your sink with warm water and a good fine fabric wash, leave soaking for 5 minutes, agitate water for a minute or so and rinse. Hang over your shower or towel rod and let nature do the rest. If your bra needs more cleaning, you may need to soak and agitate a little longer. Do not use wool or silk wash, the protein in these products will actually cause elastic to become brittle and snap. The same goes for using shampoo (don't).
Here's the most important note -- Never, ever put your UpBra in the dryer. There are nylon parts in the Upbra that are specially made to take on the shape of your breast after a while. These parts are sensitive to the heat produced in a dryer and can deform quickly in a dryerCare for your UpBra like the queen she is, and she, in turn, will make you feel like one!!

How was the UpBra developed?
|
With lots of sweat, tears and ingenuity. We recognized a need for women as young 22 to women as mature as 107 to have a beautiful piece of lingerie that would give them a lift - not a push, not a pad, not a squish. It had to be comfortable enough for every day and special enough for those occasions when you want to dress to impress. Wear it as an ordinary bra in the daytime and then let it do its thing at for example special anniversary dinners, a night out at a club or a class reunion... when the first words coming out of people's mouths are "Wow! You look fabulous!". Who doesn't want to hear that??
And moms - we hear you, loud and clear. Here's the answer to one, two, five pregnancies and breastfeeding. You're a woman, first and foremost. The UpBra will make you feel like one again.

Is the UpBra comfortable to wear?
|
| Yes! The molded cups have edges that are covered by soft, breathable fabric that feels wonderful against your skin while allowing air to circulate. You won't feel sticky or uncomfortable. The back elastic allows you to adjust to the perfect size, never pulling or digging into your back. The shoulder straps are wide enough to rest securely and comfortably, yet smooth enough to remain under your favorite sexy blouse. Once you're lifted, you'll feel as if you're gently, but firmly being held up by, well, your own two hands! |
|
How does the lifting action work?
|
| It's easy. Simply slide the lifting slider on each shoulder strap and watch as our exclusive, patented mechanism inside the cup gently lifts you to create cleavage and shape. You might want to adjust your girls to make the most out of the bra and your enhanced look. You can lift a little or a lot - how far you take it is up to you. |
