Frequently asked questions
Product Information
1. What are Bare & Basic’s Reusable Nipple Covers made of?
Our nipple covers are crafted from high‑quality, food‑grade silicone with our exclusive skin-safe Bare Bio-gel adhesive that leaves no residue, is gentle on the skin, non-irritating and designed to be worn comfortably for hours. They’re free from parabens, hypoallergenic, and fragrance‑free for sensitive skin.
2. How many times can I reuse my Bare & Basic Nipple Covers?
With proper care, our nipple covers can be reused up to 25 times or more. Simply wash with mild soap and water after each use, allow them to air dry, and store them in their protective case to maintain adhesive quality.
3. Are Bare & Basic Nipple Covers suitable for all skin types?
Yes! Our covers are hypoallergenic and made with a non-irritating Bio-gel adhesive, making them safe for sensitive skin. However, if you have specific skin concerns, consult with a dermatologist before use.
4. Can I wear Bare & Basic nipple covers under tight or sheer clothing?
Absolutely. Our seamless, ultra-gradient edge silicone nipple covers are designed to stay invisible under most fabrics, including tight tops and dresses.
5. Do these nipple covers lift or support the breasts like a bra?
Our nipple covers are mainly designed for coverage and modesty, not support. They work best with outfits where you don’t need extra lift.
6. How are Bare & Basic silicone nipple covers different than a sticky bra?
Our silicone nipple covers offer a lightweight, seamless, and discreet way to conceal nipples without the bulk or lift of a sticky bra, making them perfect for tight, sheer, or minimal-coverage outfits.
7. Why should I choose reusable silicone nipple covers over single-use flower petals or pasties?
Silicone nipple covers are reusable, long‑lasting, and stay securely in place, unlike single-use breast petals or pasties that can slip, lose stickiness, or need frequent replacement.
8. What’s the best nipple cover to wear with thin fabric?
All our silicone nipple covers are designed to be seamless, but comparatively speaking, our BB Vanish covers offer the most discreet option.
9. Can Bare & Basic silicone nipple covers be worn under swimsuits?
Yes! Bare & Basic Seamless Nipple Covers are water resistant and designed to stay secure under swimsuits. They’re the perfect alternative to bulky, shifting pad inserts—no bunching or adjusting, just smooth, seamless coverage that looks natural in and out of the water.
Application & Removal
1. How do I apply Bare & Basic Nipple Covers?
Make sure your skin is clean, dry, and free from lotions or oils. Peel off the protective backing, align the cover with your nipple, and press down gently for at least 5 seconds. Our adhesive ensures a secure fit all day.
2. How do I remove the nipple covers?
To remove, gently peel back from the edge. Our nipple covers are designed for pain-free, residue-free removal. After use, simply cleanse the area with mild soap and water as part of your normal routine.
3. Will they stay on during exercise, swimming, or hot weather?
Yes! Our high quality silicone nipple covers are water-resistant and sweat-resistant, designed to stay in place during moderate activity. Extremely high-intensity workouts or swimming in chlorinated pools may slightly reduce adhesion over time. Before intense workouts, be sure your skin is completely dry before applying.
4. Can I use lotion, oils, or powders with them?
No. Oils, lotions, and powders can interfere with adhesion. We recommend applying our nipple covers only on clean, dry, bare skin.
Care & Storage
1. How should I clean my nipple covers?
After each use, wash with mild soap and water, then let air dry. Once dry, place them back in the protective case to keep them dust-free and ready for next time.
2. How should I store Bare & Basic Nipple Covers?
Store them in their original case or a clean, dust-free container to maintain their adhesive quality and prolong their life.
