Some of us wear padded bras. Most of us refer to them as "push-up" bras to keep our dignity. We aren't desperate enough to invest in the procedure, but we still want a bustline. What's a 34 B to do?
Manufactures have heard our cries for a natural looking (i.e. won't turn lumpy after 3 washes), comfy feeling bra.
There's only one catch: it's filled with water. Ok, it's not always filled with water, sometimes it's a water/glycerin mixture, but it's definitely liquid. It's made to move naturally, like your own breasts would, except you wear them outside your breasts instead of implanting them. They don't appear to be leak proof, but the makers assure us the high-tech casing allows the gel room to move under pressure.
So if you are looking for a lift that doesn't have pads that slip, try a water bra. The bras that deserve a mention are Victoria's Secret Natural Miracle Bra, (water/glycerin filled, $48), Ultimo (silicone filled, found at Saks Fifth Avenue for around $52) and Fashion Forms Water Bra (filled with water/natural oil at $36).
