Starting Again & Dome Cleanser Question

Hi Everyone, I mentioned on another post that I used brava for about 2 weeks, 5.5 years ago. Well, I'm at it again, and this time I plan to make it at least 14 weeks and more hopefully. I received it today. And, the wide large domes are a good fit.

My starting measurements
27.5 under bust
33.5 over the nipple.
32B bra which fits pretty well.
26 years old 5'5" 132 lbs, no children, never lost a lot of wait, no ptosis
33.5-26.5-38.5

I'm hoping to stick it out long enough and end up with a 32D, but I would probably be happy for a 32C. I'm trying to remain positive about brava despite the unsatisfactory results of some for two reasons. The first is that I won't finish if I dont' believe it will work, and the second is that the placebo effect is real. I dont' care whether brava makes me grow or the expectation to grow makes me grow. I just want bigger boobs! I'll keep you guys updated on my progress. Thanks for the support!

Also, I didn't get the dome cleanser on ebay. Would someone be kind enough to post the ingredients so that I can find a really close substitute?

Hi,
Welcome to the Brava Club. I've only been in for 3 weeks but it's going okay. I have a slight rash and am putting Zinc Oxide baby rash cream on it which is helping, but boy does it burn! I'm sleeping better now and doing about 10-11 hours a night.

My starting measurements are 30 underbust, 34 over nipple. I'm in a 34A bra but hoping to get to a 34B (full B not small B). I am going to do 18 weeks and see if that does it. Your measurements are similar to mine and I've read on here that if you want to go one cup size up it took the other ladies anywhere from 15-32 weeks. I would love a C but I have heard that would take a full year, and I don't think I can do this over the summer. Vacation is at 18 weeks so that's my goal - get to the end of May, then enjoy the summer.

By the way for the dome cleanser, I read that you can use Johnson's Baby Shampoo. I bought the skin care kit from Brava for $100. It's expensive!!!

Hi Rox3, thanks for the response and the warm welcome! I'm so afraid of the skin rashes..that's part of why I stopped before. I wish you luck, and I hope you can get that 34B in time for vacation! I don't want to take this into the summer either.

I've heard other ladies mention Johnson's Baby Shampoo, but I was just really curious about what the ingredients are in the product that brava sells to clean the domes.

Skin Rash

February 10 2009, 11:45 PM 

I spoke to the Brava Coach at lenght last night and she was fantastic. She was a wealth of knowledge and really made me feel better about the rash. She asked if it was raised or flat. My rash is flat like a rug burn. She said it's de-hydrated skin and to do the following immediately:

1. Don't use the Brava cleaner to clean the chest before putting the domes on. Use Johnson's Baby Shampoo. I just bought some today for $3.99. She said the Brava cleanser has an exfoliant and is harsh and some people don't do well with it. She said you can also use plain ole' Ivory soap as an option too.

2. Don't use the Brava body lotion in the AM when I take the domes off. She told me to buy Aveno Body lotion - the kind with oatmeal and the unscented kind. Again, that was $2.99.

3. Put Vitamin E oil on the rash right after getting out of the shower in the AM. Do that only one time since it could clog pores if you keep putting it on all day.

4. If the itching gets bad during the day, use the Cortaid brand cream which has hydrocortizone as it's active ingredient.

5. Continue to use the Brava dome spray to wash the domes in the AM.

6. Turn the domes to re-position them so they are not directly lined up with the nipples and the dome isn't laying on top of the rash.

7. Make sure to FLARE the domes out when putting them on which helps to protect the skin.

Hope this helps anyone out there who may get a rash.
