Bust Up Cups Review: Do Men Notice Cleavage Size?

bust up cups review

You may not have realized this, but men love breasts, whether as visual or sensual entertainment. So it stands to reason that the more boobage you have, the more of a man magnet you'd be. Right? Scientific Study Finds Men Like Looking At Breasts

It was in this spirit that I decided to try out Kymaro Bust Up Cups, a set of silicone inserts that promised to make me look sexier.

Before going on, I should note: my cleavage doesn't need a lot of help. While I went through both junior high and high school as a flat-chested pear shape, I'm now a solid C-cup, and friends have told me that my boobs are—and I quote—"fantastic." I'm also known among former colleagues as the only one who could get away with (tasteful, I swear) cleavage at the office. Still, who wouldn't jump at the chance to enhance one of her greatest assets, especially when said enhancement doesn't require surgery? The 5 Most Disturbing Things We Do For Beauty

So I slipped my new, complimentary Bust Up Cups into my bra and pulled on my most low-cut top. Staring at my chest in the mirror, I couldn't see much of a difference. Still, in the elevator with my co-workers later that day, whilst chatting about super-important-work-stuff, one of the ladies I work with said: "I'm sorry to change the subject but, Steph, are you wearing those Bust Up Cups today?"

I confirmed that I was, indeed, wearing some extra support beneath my bra, but admitted that I couldn't tell if it made a difference.

"Your breasts definitely look firmer and more pushed together," she said. Wow. Cool. I proceeded to stare at my own cleavage for the rest of the day.

Still, it was tough to gauge how men felt about my newly pumped-up breasts. After all, the average male tends to stare at them no matter what size they are, or what type of neckline I'm wearing. And, no matter how much I seductively arch my back while at the office, my male coworkers are far too polite to ever obviously ogle me.

So is wearing an insert pointless?

After all of this impressively scientific, hands-on research, I think that experience has generally only proven this: boob size doesn't matter to men, as long as they're allowed to touch them. 7 Body Parts Men Love—Just The Way They Are

As for whether anyone noticed the change—well, women always notice these things (and, for some reason, have no problem staring at or talking about each other's boobs), while men tend to know better than to make a direct comment about our chest size, at the risk of getting slapped.

Do you recommend any cleavage enhancers? What do your men think?
