How to Care for a Mature Bust?

The skin of the neck, neckline, and breasts is extremely delicate and loose. With age, the skin in these areas quickly loses firmness and density, becoming less taut. How to deal with the problems of a mature bust to preserve your femininity for longer?

Problems of a Mature Bust

Quite early, at the age of 35, a significant drop in female hormones responsible for the proper structure and quality of a woman’s skin and the functioning of her body is noticeable in the hormonal system. Estrogen, as one of the most important elements for female health, serves to shape the figure and develop the breasts. Thanks to it, the skin is rich in oxygen and nutrients, and therefore firm, elastic, and resilient. Progesterone is a hormone produced during and after pregnancy and during ovulation. It supports estrogen in the production of capillaries, which help properly nourish skin cells. In the case of a deficiency of these hormones, besides changes in well-being, a clear deterioration in the quality and density of the skin is also visible.

The drop in hormones responsible for the ideal appearance of the breasts is a natural course of events. Without the intervention of a medical specialist, the breasts will certainly lose firmness and become saggy. The process can be slowed down with appropriate exercises, cosmetics, or care. Unfortunately, it can also be easily accelerated by an improper diet (rapid weight gain and sudden loss of kilograms), smoking, poorly matched hormonal contraception, poor hydration, and moisturizing of the skin. In the case of such delicate skin and the complicated hormonal system of a woman, which is individual for each of us, we cannot influence most changes, but we can affect how the bust looks daily.

The Ideal Bra, What Is It Like?

Hormonal changes, besides reducing the amount of glandular tissue and increasing fatty tissue, also make the breasts much more sensitive and demanding when it comes to lingerie. Mature women notice skin irritations, nipple irritations, and even allergic reactions to certain types of materials and cuts.

Every woman, regardless of age, would like to feel comfortable and feminine. Our clients visiting Bagatelle most often dream that their bust is nicely highlighted, lifted, and rounded. Bra fitting is an extremely important part of lingerie purchase for mature women because mature breasts are complicated and require a professional eye of a specialist. In serving clients, we first examine their needs, that is, what type of lingerie they are looking for (everyday, for a special occasion, functional). This is the basis on which we select bra proposals from Polish producers. Measuring is the most important stage of lingerie selection. The bra fitter, when measuring the client, takes into account both basic factors, such as band width, figure, bust size, but also solutions adapted to mature breasts. These include, for example, wider, more comfortable straps that can lift the bust upwards, wider underwire arches at the bottom of the cups, reinforced band straps, and side panels that gather and support the bust in the right place.

Mature women are definitely recommended to wear mainly full-cup bras, that is, with a closed cup surrounding the entire breast. Also more advantageous for them will be semi-soft or completely soft models, which can shape the breast and restore the desired form. It is also worth taking care of the material from which the bra is made. Much better here will be soft, comfortable textures that do not irritate the delicate skin of the breasts.

A mature bust can be cared for and beautiful, and a woman of any age has the right to feel sensual.
