It’s a hot, sticky summer in Dubai, and your wardrobe is ready for it.
You’re on your way with a suitcase packed full of plunging necklines, sheer dresses, and beautifully backless tops. You’re ready to show off your tan, hit the world-famous night life, and party on.
But wait.
Under the beating sun and long into the sticky, humid nights, your poor-quality nipple covers just don’t hold up. That wardrobe you’ve planned? It’s a nightmare. And your go-to nipple covers just won’t ever be the same.
It’s moments like this that we at BARE know all too often, which is why we rolled our sleeves up and got to work designing nipple covers that would never leave us in the lurch. In this blog, learn the story of BARE and what we did to design the best nipple covers your underwear drawer has ever seen.
The problem with your old nipple covers
Okay, now let’s rewind.
It’s the 2010s and suddenly, cheap nipple covers are everywhere. They’re on Amazon, at every fashion show, and even your local drug store is stocking them.
But what they promise—freedom from bras while supporting your boobs and giving you a sleek sillhouette—just sounds too good to be true. You pick up some cheap ones, they use a toxic-smelling glue, they peel off half way through a night of dancing, and in pictures the next morning you notice how they leave you looking bumpy from the side.
Not ideal.
But still, there are some items in your wardrobe that just need nipple covers. Those sheer tops, your backless catsuit, that daringly plunging gown.
This is the dilemma we found ourselves in, and after a relocation to the sweltering Dubai heat, we knew that if we wanted nipple covers to keep up, well, we’d have to design them ourselves.
Trusting the process
Before we thought of the name, we started listing all the issues wrong with the miserably cheap Amazon finds that promised the world and under-delivered.
Top of the list was the poor quality silicone that bunched up and caught in the fabric of our favorite styles. One-size-fits-all designs don't accommodate different breast sizes or shapes, and the usual strong adhesive smelled bad, irritated our skin, and never lasted as long as the packaging promised.
That’s why we chose hypoallergenic silicone and a versatile range of colors and sizes: not just a one-size-fits-all option. We knew that we wanted to design a nipple cover that fit every woman, with skin colors that suited every body and shapes that supported all different types of breasts.
Next, we were fed up with poor nipple cover designs and styles that looked strange under clothing. No bunches, lumps, or visible edges under our clothes, thanks.
That’s when we spent ages crafting a design with tapered, thin edges that blend seamlessly with your body and move with you. Instead of heavy, toxic glue, BARE is made with high-quality silicone and a hypoallergenic adhesive that lasts on sweaty dancefloors or in the daytime Dubai heat.
Why BARE is just, well, better
So, what can you expect when you unwrap your BARE by Reva nipple covers? Imagine your delivery’s just arrived, and let’s unwrap them together.
The Luxe Experience
The first thing you’ll notice is the luxe, matte packaging and storage box.
Open her up and you’ll find a delightful storage and travel bag in there, too! Perfect for packing for those long weekends away.
We wanted BARE by Reva nipple covers to be a luxury experience in your underwear drawer, a favorite piece you can rely on under your most glamorous outfits (and dressing up those day-to-day styles, too).
100% hyperallergenic, baby!
Go on, put them on.
You’ll notice that they’ll feel so different to the usual nipple covers you’re used to, with gentle adhesive that doesn’t pinch or drag, but that feels secure and supportive.
This was the careful creation of our product design team, testing different types of adhesive on different skin types and meticulously testing our ingredients against a load of known allergens. Then, we tested our nipple covers ourselves, dancing, shopping, running after the kids. With natural movement and our body’s natural oils and moisture, we made sure that these nipple covers could last the whole day.
The Sleekest Blend
The next thing you’ll notice is how these nipple covers contour to your body’s natural shape. With the most delicate, thin edges, they blend seamlessly with your skin and your curves, holding you up while maintaining a 100% natural shape that’s all you.
In our favorite matte silicone, you’ll find BARE by Reva nipple covers are practically invisible under your clothes, and our range of colors are suited for even the sheerest materials and clothes you’ve got in your wardrobe.
They last, and last, and last, and…
Once you’ve done wearing them, pack them back in their box carefully.
We know that the impact of our outfit choices goes beyond our own little world. Fast fashion and poor-quality, disposable products are clogging up our beautiful earth. For a product to be truly beautiful, it must be sustainable.
That’s why we made BARE by Reva ready to last for up to 100 wears when you look after them carefully. Not only are they great for your wardrobe, but they’re great for the planet too and easy on your budget.
Perfect!
