The Purpose of Nipple Covers

Nipple Covers provide coverage to protruding nipples.  People wear nipple covers for several reasons, but the major reasons are for discreteness and confidence.  Women are very concern when the first things men notice are their protruding nipples, which can be both demeaning and uncomfortable for most women.  In this day, when bras are no longer a necessity because of breast surgery, great genes or just because, nipple covers are becoming very popular.  As the original owner of SenseLingerie.com, I’ve seen and heard it all.

Nipple covers are popular with doctors, lawyers, teachers, administrative assistants and most other careers.  I can remember when I explained what the product was to my son, he was about 9 at the time, and he stated that one of his teachers could use the product too.  I wondered if his teacher realized that the developing boys in her class noticed her nipples protruding under her dress or blouse.  I just discreetly left her a gift package of several styles and shared my personal story with her.  She became a great customer and referred several other teachers to the website.  Her favorite style is the Gel Silicone Nipple Covers in the Round shape. The round shape gives you a seamless fit because they are thin around the edges and appear as a natural shape of the areola, so you can wear them with tight-fitted and thin fabrics.  The Petal shape is popular because some women find them easier to remove and very feminine.  Also, a big plus with the Gel Silicone Nipple Covers is that one package can last over a month.

Whether you wear them with or without bra, nipple covers provide a seamless, comfortable and discrete look with any style. Over the years, I’ve realized that the majority of our customers are professional women that want that perfected, non-judgmental look that wearing nipple covers gives them.  Formerly referred to as pasties, because in the beginning they were more of a bedroom fashion, but their function has changed to a daily fashion necessities to many women and are also growing popular with men.  Men, especially those that workout rigorously or have the issues with protruding nipples, this allows them to down play this area of awkwardness. 

Nipple covers, such as the Mini Nipple Covers are very widely used for customers that prefer disposable covers that are very thin, soft, easier to remove and work well for younger girls and teenagers because of their sizes.  The round is also very popular with men, because they don’t feel too girly.  This is also a major product used in tanning salons and spas because they provide the needed protection and discreetness in these settings.

We also have several customers that purchase the Gel Silicone Nipple Covers and cut them to cover up surgical scars and coverage on painful corns and bunions on there feet.  And because the product is currently available in two transparent colors (nude and brown), they work well for every skin color. 

So the true purpose of Nipple Covers is limitless and growing. We hope that you would share your personal stories with this article to help others see the true and great reasons for wearing nipple covers.

SenseLingerie.com offers the largest selection of nipple covers, including disposable, reusable, latex-free, several colors and brands.  You are sure to find a product that you love and is a perfect choice for you.  In addition, there are several other fashion and lingerie solutions products available, from adhesive bras, bra accessories and enhancers.

The Rise Of The Nipple Tassel!

The Rise Of The Nipple Tassel!

You might have noticed that nipple tassels have been popping up all over the place lately, with lots of celebrities spotted wearing them.

Nipple tassels or pasties originate from burlesque back in the days when they were used to cover up what the censor didn’t want you to see! Lately though they’ve been crossing over into maintstream fashion. Maybe it’s because burlesque has been growing steadily in popularity over the last few years – despite the fact that nipples are no longer outlawed on stage, nipple tassels have become an essential part of any burlesque act. Perhaps it’s because they’re so sexy and saucy that we can’t resist them!

The rise in popularity of burlesque (and nipple tassels!) has probably been helped by some of the celebrities who are becoming famous for their sexy burlesque routines, most famously of course Dita Von Teese. But recently our own Mel B performed in a very successful burlesque show in Las Vegas, and she’s now been followed in the show by Carmen Electra complete with nipple tassels of course!

Whilst Janet Jackson may have shocked everyone when she wore nipple pasties back in 2004 at the Super Bowl, there’s no longer any doubt they’ve gone mainstream. We saw Britney Spears wearing them during her successful Circus tour, whilst Rihanna went one step further and wore them under an open tuxedo jacket during American Independence Day celebrations in Las Vegas this year. Plus of course Lady GaGa has also adopted wearing them! And where these trendsetting ladies go, it seems we can’t help but follow!

In fact it seems that nipple tassles are everywhere! We had a burlesque dancer perform in red sequinned nipple tassles during this year’s Britain’s Got Talent. Whilst Dita Von Teese wore diamante nipple tassels in the Eurovision Song Content when she performed a dance routine with the German entry. No wonder they’re getting so popular then!

Nipple tassels or pasties are definitely a saucy and unique way of covering up your modesty in a low cut or see through outfit! Basically the difference between a nipple tassel and a pastie, is that a pastie doesn’t have a tassel (so you can’t twirl them!) but they can look just as amazing. Despite what you might think, nipple tassels and pasties are surprisingly easy and comfortable to wear. So why not pop some tassels on and try a bit of twirling in the bedroom! I’m reliably informed that ladies of all shapes and sizes can twirl them, plus an interesting fact you might not know is that men are also quite capable of twirling them too!

As well as a sexy cover up under low cut and see through outfits, nipple tassels can also look amazing when you team them with some sexy lingerie.
