Stephanie's Story:

“As someone who loves wearing backless dresses and daring outfits, I was constantly frustrated with the lack of options available for breast tape.

Our tape is inclusive—designed for every woman, every body type, and every skin tone. I’m proud to offer a product that women can rely on.”
