Different Ways to Apply Boob Tape
Boob Tape gives you the flexibility to create support and lift based on your outfit, neckline and preferred shape. Because every outfit is different, there is no single application method that works for every look.
Use the examples below as inspiration and follow the step-by-step instructions to apply the tape securely and comfortably.
Different application techniques can be used depending on your outfit and desired level of lift.
How to Apply Boob Tape
Start with clean, dry skin and take your time when positioning the tape. Applying the tape gradually makes it easier to control the amount of lift and support.
Make sure the skin on and around your breasts is completely clean and dry. Avoid lotion, body oil and perfume, as these can affect the adhesive.
Optional: Apply nipple covers before using Boob Tape for additional nipple coverage.
Cut the tape into the desired lengths based on the amount of coverage, lift and support you want to create.
Carefully remove approximately half of the backing paper and apply the exposed adhesive section to the breast. Once it is positioned, remove the remaining backing paper.
Gently position your breast into the desired shape and apply the rest of the tape to the skin. Smooth the tape down carefully as you go.
Add additional pieces of tape if you need more lift, shaping or support. Once you are happy with the result, repeat the process on the other breast.
How to Remove Boob Tape Safely
Boob Tape uses a strong adhesive to provide lift and support, so correct removal is just as important as correct application. Never pull the tape from dry skin and do not try to remove it with water alone.
Important: Saturate the complete fabric surface of the tape with oil or a suitable medical adhesive remover before peeling it away. Baby oil or coconut oil can also be used. Remove clothing around the area first to prevent oil stains.
- Step 1: Completely saturate the tape with oil, making sure the entire fabric surface is covered.
- Step 2: Leave the oil on the tape for at least five minutes so it can help loosen the adhesive.
- Step 3: Gently lift one corner of the tape. Do not pull or rip the tape away quickly.
- Step 4: Slowly peel the tape away while holding the skin down with your other hand close to the area where the tape is being removed.
- Step 5: Continue slowly until the tape has been completely removed.

- Do not wear Boob Tape overnight.
- Do not wear the product for longer than 12 hours at a time.

- According to the product instructions, people with a significant amount of melanin or a family history of depigmentation should be aware that skin lightening may occur in response to the silicone or adhesive.
Finding the Right Boob Tape Application
The way you apply Boob Tape depends on your outfit. A deep neckline may require a different tape direction than a strapless or backless look. The goal is to place the tape where it provides support while remaining hidden underneath your clothing.
Try your chosen application before wearing it for an extended period. This gives you time to check the positioning, comfort and visibility underneath your outfit.
