VeroniKHAI's Secrets

Bras, thongs, g-strings, underwears.

There is one thing that i do not understand about them. Why the HELL do they cost so much when in fact compared to other clothing type, they use the least material?

C'mon. How many meters of cloth does it need to make a panty compared to a shirt? It really baffles me man. Haha!

Anyway, today i'm gonna talk about these innerwear. They come in all sort of shapes and designs. Some got underwire, some got padding. Some got lace while others are plain jane. Heck! Some u can even eat it!! But still, they form one of the most important peice of clothing a person would need. People have been known to forget to zip their trousers but got people meh forgot to wear underwear?! (unless purposely)

The usage of these innerwear also varies. Some are used during sports. Some wants to make the 'Neh-Neh' look big. But the primary objective would be to cover one's modesty.

And so my fellow lady readers, Dr Khairul, your Sex Instructor, have come up with a few tips on how to wear these itsy-bitsy innerwear clothing as well as to clear any misconceptions.

Dun laugh! U might be doing it wrong...


How To Correctly
Wear A Bra?
Hook & spin method
1. Wrap your bra around your waist and hook the closure in front of you. Make note of the location of the bra's label (e.g. side seam, back).
2. Turn your bra clockwise until the front of your bra is centered. This ensures that the excess on the adjustment flap lays flat against your back.
3. Bring bra up so that the bra band is resting directly under the breasts.
4. Slip the shoulder straps over your shoulders.
5. Run your finger along the area where the bra's label is to make sure it is lying smooth and flat against your skin.
6. Tug downward on the back of the bra so that it rests beneath the shoulder blades. The line of the bra should be horizontal from front to back.
7. Bend over at the waist and ease your breasts into the cups. One technique is to pull the band down and shake until the breasts fall into place. Another technique is to move the breast around with your hand until it is satisfactorily in the cup. Your nipples should be centered into the fullest point of the cup, and the cup should completely contain the breast (with the exception of push-up and demi cup styles). If your bra has a center seam, make sure your nipple is on the seam - this will reduce your nipples from showing.
8. Stand upright and visually check to see that your breasts are in the proper position.


Upside down hook & spin method -
1. Wrap your bra around your waist inside out and upside down. Hook the closure. Make note of the location of the bra's label (e.g. side seam, back).
2. Turn your bra (in this technique it doesn't matter what direction you turn it) until the front of your bra is centered.
3. Flip the bra up so that the bra band is right side out and resting directly under the breasts.
4. Slip the shoulder straps over your shoulders.
5. Run your finger along the area where the bra's label is to make sure it is lying smooth and flat against your skin.
6. Tug downward on the back of the bra so that it rests beneath the shoulder blades. The line of the bra should be horizontal from front to back.
7. Bend over at the waist and ease your breasts into the cups. One technique is to pull the band down and shake until the breasts fall into place. Another technique is to move the breast around with your hand until it is satisfactorily in the cup. Your nipples should be centered into the fullest point of the cup, and the cup should completely contain the breast (with the exception of push-up and demi cup styles). If your bra has a center seam, make sure your nipple is on the seam - this will reduce your nipples from showing.
8. Stand upright and visually check to see that your breasts are in the proper position.


Stretch & hook method -
1. Begin by slipping the straps over your shoulders. Make note of the location of the bra's label (e.g. side seam, back).
2. Bend over at the waist and ease your breasts into the cups. Your nipples should be centered into the fullest point of the cup, and the cup should completely contain the breast (with the exception of push-up and demi cup styles).
3. Hook the bra closure in back, and then stand upright.
4. Run your finger along the area where the bra's label is to make sure it is lying smooth and flat against your skin.

Most Common Mistake Women Make
When Trying To Find Their Correct Bra Size?
Most women walking around in the wrong bra size are wearing a bra with too big a band size and too small a cup size. So, a good starting point is to go down a band size and up 2 cup sizes and see how that size feels. For example, if you are wearing a 40C go to a 38DD (or 38F), You go up 2 cup sizes because when you go down a band size, the same cup size will actually be smaller as well.


What's The Difference Between
A Thong And A G-String?
A g-string, as the name implies, has a string in the back of the panty instead of a fabric panel. A thong has a little more fabric and usually comes to a "Y" at the waistband. Both serve the same purpose of cutting down on visible panty lines. Each style has its ardent fans -- your best bet is to try each and decide which one feels more comfortable to you.


Why Do Underwire Bras Always Poke?
As a bra gets larger in the band size, the distance between the cups also increases. Underwires are placed in a bra according to accurate measurements. If you experience poking, your bra is probably the wrong band size. It is important that you measure for your band size and then not deviate from it when purchasing bras.


Why Are The Bottom Of Breasts
Often Red Or Bruised?
When the band of your bra is not up against the ribcage, but rather resting on the under-breast tissue, redness and bruising can occur. The problem is that the band size of your bra is too big (e.g. you're wearing a size 42 instead of a size 40). Your breasts are falling out from the bottom of your bra and your bra straps are being asked to bear too much of the weight and support. Not only are you uncomfortable, but your bustline is not getting proper support. Try a bra with a smaller band size and a larger cup size (e.g. try a 42D if you were wearing a 44C).


What Is The Best Way
To Wash Bras?
You can wash your bra in the washing machine, but make sure it is hooked together to avoid tangling or hooking onto other clothing. It is always a good idea to put bras in a lingerie bag to keep them separate. Wash on delicate cycle in cool water with gentle detergent. And don't ever put your bras in the dryer. Heat breaks down the spandex. A bra gets a lot of wear and tear anyway. So keep it away from the dryer.







What Is The Best Way
To Wash Panties?
Begin by looking at the care instructions on the label. If they are machine washable, it is safest to put them in a load with other delicate items and run washer on the delicate cycle with cold or warm water. Avoid hot water and the dryer since elastic breaks down with heat. Line-drying panties is always best.


What's The Difference
Between A Sports Bra
And A Regular Bra?
Whereas traditional bras are designed to provide support, a sports bra is designed to support and also reduce breast movement. It has been estimated that the average underwire reduces breast movement by 38%. However, a good sports bra can reduce breast movement by at least 56%!


How To Have Plumper
Looking Breasts?
Center your nipples above the apex point of your bra. Then, you’ll have a plumper top to your breast volume. Or just buy push-up bra!


What Type Of Bra
Should You Wear?
Tight Sweater - A seamless, uplifting bra
Bulky Sweater - A bra with shaping
Sheer Blouse - A seamless flesh-tone bra
Tight Tee or Polo Shirt - A seamless bra
Halter, Tank, Strapless - A strapless, convertible or halter bra
Business Suit w/o Blouse - A bra designed with a low center panel or front closing.
Nothing - Nothing. Haha!!
