Wearing nipple covers shouldn’t feel like a risky experiment — it should feel natural. Like slipping into your favourite outfit and knowing it just works. Whether you're rocking a backless dress, testing out a sheer top, or simply want the freedom of going braless without feeling exposed, nipple covers have your back (and front).
Still wondering if they'll stay on, how to apply them, or what to wear them with? You're not alone, and you're in the right place.
Let’s break it all down so you feel confident and completely at ease.
What Are Nipple Covers, and Why Do Women Love Them?
Nipple covers, also called pasties, breast petals, or adhesive shields, are soft, discreet little lifesavers that cover your nipples when a bra just doesn’t work with the outfit. They’re usually made from medical-grade silicone or breathable fabric and are shaped to blend seamlessly with your body under clothing.
Why women use them:
- They love the freedom of going braless, but still want some coverage.
- Their outfit simply won’t work with a traditional bra (hi, backless dress).
- They’re tired of underwire and padding and want something that just feels better.
GoNipless nipple covers are especially loved because they’re hypoallergenic, sweat-resistant, and nearly invisible — even under thin or delicate fabrics.
The Do’s of Wearing Nipple Covers (Let’s Make This Easy)
✅ 1. Start with Clean Skin
Your skin should be dry and free of lotions or oils — that’s the key to great stick. Just wash the area with mild soap and pat it dry.

Gently hold the cover by the edges, place it over your nipple, and press down to seal. That’s it.
✅ 2. Choose the Right Shape
Not all covers are created equal. Some are too thick, others too visible. If you’re using GoNipless, their tapered-edge design hugs your body naturally and won’t leave ridges under your clothes.
✅ 3. Do a Test Run
Planning to wear them to a wedding, party, or full-day event? Give them a quick trial at home first. Try them with your outfit. Move around. Jump if you want. Make sure you're feeling confident before showtime.
✅ 4. Match the Cover to Your Look
Backless or strapless dress? Silicone covers are your best friend.
Sheer or light fabric? Choose a thicker cover or layer with a cami.
Every day style? Stick with a nude-tone that disappears under your top.
The Don’ts (Because We’ve All Been There)
❌ No Moisturisers, Please
Even a little lotion can kill the grip. If you’ve already moisturised, wipe the area with an alcohol pad or blot with a tissue before applying.
❌ Don’t Yank Them Off
They’re sticky, not super glue. Gently peel from the edges. If they’re extra clingy, loosen them with warm water or a bit of oil to protect your skin.
❌ Don’t Forget to Clean and Store
If you’re reusing them (which you absolutely should), rinse them after each use with mild soap, let them air dry, and pop them back in their original tray. This keeps them sticky and shapely for up to 30 wears.
What Women Are Asking (and Googling Daily)
Do nipple covers fall off?
Not if you prep your skin properly. GoNipless covers are built to stay put for 6–8 hours, even during light sweat or dancing.
How long do they last?
With proper care, GoNipless reusable nipple covers can last for 20 to 30 wears.
Are they safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. They’re made with hypoallergenic medical-grade silicone, perfect for sensitive areas — even post-surgery or postpartum.
Can I wear them to the gym or dancing?
Absolutely for dancing, errands, or low-impact activities. For intense sweat sessions, consider layering with a soft bra or top for backup.
Confidence Starts With You — Not Your Bra
Nipple covers are just a tool. The real confidence? That’s all you. Whether you’re dressing up, keeping it casual, or ditching the bra altogether, the choice is about comfort, not compromise.
