How to make boob covers (DIY)

The general rule of nipple covers is that they must conceal your nipples and stay on for as long as you need them. Anything less than that and you may be in line for a fashion disaster.

To achieve these goals, you need the following:

A comfortable material: Find a soft and comfortable material that won’t irritate the skin. Nipples, being very sensitive, will itch and cause discomfort when covered with rough materials. Some of the best DIY nipple cover materials include a soft paper, satin, cotton, or the kind of material used in panty liners.

A good adhesive: An adhesive is the most important part of the nipple cover. Without it, the cover won’t hold on to your nipples. You can use skin friendly glue or a duct tape as adhesives. In both cases, make sure to use coconut oil to remove them easily after use. Other options include the flash tape, wig tape, or spirit gum.

When using duct tape, ensure to place a soft piece of clothing or paper between the tape and the nipple. This prevents the sticky tape from getting in direct contact with your nipple which could cause problems to remove.
You can also use duct tape to lift your breasts.

The decoration: Although decoration isn’t necessary, it comes in handy when the material you have used in your DIY doesn’t make the finished product beautiful. The best material for décor in this case is rhinestone which you will attach using glue. Ensure to get bigger rhinestones that will take a shorter time to attach.

Other ways of decorating nipple covers include cutting them into your favorite shapes rather than just circles. You can also use colored paper that matches the color of your dress.

After you have got the materials in place, follow the steps outlined in this video to create your nipple covers.
