Looking for the boob tape that Kim K loves? She used gaffer tape in most of her iconic plunging neckline dresses.

If you know you’re allergic to adhesives already, stay away from boob tape or any kind of adhesive tapes.

Plus, covering up your nipples helps them become less visible when you put your dress on. If that’s a concern for you, nipple covers or cotton pads are your friend!

Most boob tape has an adhesive backing on it, so it won’t be sticky until you peel that off. If yours doesn’t, you can stick the edge of your strips onto a countertop or table to have them at the ready.

If you’re having trouble finding the perfect position for your boobs, put on a bra you love and see how much lift it gives you. Then, take off the bra and replicate that lift with your hand.

Keep supporting your breast with one hand as you apply the tape to make sure it stays lifted.

When your first piece of tape is smooth and wrinkle-free, you can apply a second piece of tape to your other breast.

The placement of your tape depends on the straps of your dress. If your dress has wide, thick straps with a plunging neckline, keep the tape on the outer portion of your breasts (near your armpits). If your dress is strapless, tape your boobs horizontally instead of vertically.

This can be a little tough to do on your own, so don’t be afraid to ask a friend for help with this step.

Boob tape is usually single-use, so unfortunately, you can’t reuse it for another night out.
