Breast Enhancer Options for Small Breasts

Breast Enhancer Options for Small Breasts (and why bra fit matters so much)

Having small breasts can be a blessing and a curse. I should know — I’m a 32B at the moment (but that can fluctuate). I love that I can sometimes go without a bra, but it can make fitting into certain tops and dresses a bit tricky.

I don’t have time to blog nearly as much as I’d like, but I thought I really should write a quick guide for small breasts, because the more information you have, the easier it is to choose a style that actually works. I want you to feel confident picking what you need — and I’m here if you’d like help, of course.

First: sizing isn’t science

We’re all different, with different breast shapes, and what works beautifully for one person might not for another.

Also, band size matters more than people realise. A 30A is not comparable to a 40A, for example — as band size goes up, the “A” cup physically holds more volume, so the space inside the bra cup is completely different.

So with that in mind, let’s look at options.

Bra Inserts for Small Breasts - If you have a small band and small cup

If you have a small band and cup size, there’s simply less room inside the bra cup for us to work with.

If you want to stay the same cup size

If you want to stay in the same cup size, you’ll usually only have room for a small insert — and that’s where Style 1 tends to shine.

If you’re happy to go up 1–2 cup sizes (or fill a bra that’s already slightly roomy)

If you’re happy to move up a cup size or two, that opens up more options: Styles 2, 3, 6, 8, and sometimes 9a, depending on your bra shape and what kind of result you want.

Using my size as an example:

• I can comfortably fit Style 1 in.

• In many of my bras (especially ones that aren’t the tightest fit), I can fit Style 2 and get a great result.

• The same can be true for Style 3, and sometimes Style 8 — but in some of my bras, Style 8 can show a little above the cup because my cups are small. I don’t mind that if it looks smooth under clothing, but it’s not for everyone.

You can always check the dimensions on the product pages, but do remember: silicone bends in the bra, so you can often use a style that’s 1–2cm bigger than your bra cup.

A quick note on Style 6

Style 6 isn’t an option for me in my normal cup size, but if I try it in a C cup, I can get a nice result in many bras — and it’s similar with Style 8 too, although I personally look bigger with that one because it cups the breast more fully and boosts the side profile ☺

Bra brands and bra shape matter ( topics is just as important as style

This is the next thing to consider: the bra itself. Brands and cuts aren’t born equal, so if you want a long-term great look, I’d absolutely recommend finding a bra that works perfectly with the enhancer you like (if you don’t already own one). The combination will reward you over and over.

What about bigger styles?

Style 7 and Style 9b are designed for a bigger, fuller boost, so they usually need a bit more breast (and cup space) to work with comfortably — on very small breasts they can feel like “too much insert, not enough bra.” If you do want a dramatic size jump, Style 12 (in the smaller size) can work, but you’ll normally need to wear a bra several cup sizes bigger because she’s a proper biggie and needs the room to sit smoothly.
