Does my bra really firm my breasts?👀

Hey ladies and noseys! Read along, and unravel misconceptions about women's bra and it's influence on women's health, beauty and lifestyle.

What is a bra?

A bra is a form-fitting undergarment designed for women to cover and support their breasts. A brassiere typically consist of;

1. Band: The band wraps around the torso and provide most of the support.
2. Straps: A strap is attached at the top of each cup and runs over the shoulder for additional support. It is adjustable in length, can be removed or converted into styles.
3. Cups: Hold and cover each breast separately.Can be soft (just fabric) or molded (structured shape), with or without padding.
4. Closure: Most often hooks-and-eyes at the back which fasten the bra securely. Sometimes a front clasp, zipper, or simply no closure (pull-over styles).
5. Center gore: Also known as bridge or just gore. It holds the cups separately apart at the correct distance.
6. Wing/Side panels: Parts of the band that extend from the cup sides to the closure and help stabilise the fit. 
7. Underwire: Thin, semi-rigid wire or plastic sewn into the cup base for extra lift and shaping. This is optional and some bras skip this for more comfort.

What is a bra not?

Hey babe,stop stop being delusional and let's get real. Your bra is not a specialized breast fit to give your breasts the everlasting perky looks you want.

Common misconceptions about bras

1. Wearing a bra prevents sagging: Hi baby educate yourself, sagging i is caused by age,genetics, and skin elasticity not whether you wear a bra or not. 
2. Sleeping in bras keep your breasts perky: Oh God...Alice your breast tissues won't train into shape by sleeping in your bra overnight. A regular exercise and a balanced diet will do.
3. Underwires isn't good for health: No hun! That's not the actual truth. The thing is you gotta find the right size made with high quality materials. I personally thought that until I got the right size made with the right materials.
4. Sports bras are only for sports: This is a fallacy my dear one. You can wear sports bra daily as long as you are comfortable in it.

So baby girl if you really want that breast perky for a long period of time, get a breast augmentation instead. Stop🛑 sleeping in your bra. It has side effects and it's not good for your chest. The brassiere is only meant to support and cover your breasts especially your peeping nipples, in order to give you a formal and confident look.
