How to choose a bra in the ordinary?
In fact, all we need is a bra that suits us, except for the size, the following 3 points we should know when we choose a bra.
1. Comfortable material
The material of the underwear is natural and breathable cotton, mainly considering the adaptability of the skin.
Fabrics such as chemical fibers can easily cause allergic discomfort to the skin on the surface of the breast, ranging from itching to recurrent eczema that does not heal.
2. Lighter colors
Light-colored underwear helps us to clearly see the color and amount of nipple discharge, and sometimes it is easier to detect certain nipple discharge diseases.
3. Comfortable shoulder straps
Choosing a wider shoulder strap can reduce the pressure on the shoulders and improve comfort, which is the same as choosing a wider back band for a school bag.
In short, for women no bra or wear a bra, and what to wear, all depends on personal experience and concepts, not on health.
