Your Grippies guide
How to wear your Grippies
Grippies hold with body heat, not glue. Get the routine right once and they'll stay put all day.
How to wear
-
Clean, dry skin.
No lotion, oil, deodorant or perfume on your chest. Even a little stops the grip.
-
Warm them in your palms for 10 to 15 seconds.
Warmth is what activates the grip, so don't skip this, especially on a cold day.
-
Press on and hold for 10 seconds.
Press from the centre outwards so the edges sit flat.
-
Get dressed in something fitted.
Grippies work best under fitted tops, bodysuits, knits and bralettes, where your clothes help hold them in place.
Not sticking?
Fluff or skin oils
Wash them with water and a little mild soap, let them air-dry fully, then try again. Fluff and skin oils are the usual culprits.
Cold covers
Warm them for longer. Cold covers won't grip.
Damp or moisturised skin
Make sure your skin is completely dry, with no moisturiser.
Loose or backless outfit
Check your outfit. Loose, backless or strapless styles don't hold an adhesive-free cover. For those, try Stickies, our adhesive covers.
Care and storage
-
Wash with water or a little mild soap after each wear.
-
Air-dry completely before storing. Don't towel dry, as fibres stick to them.
-
Store them in their box or dome, away from dust and fabric.
