I have a photography session next week, and I need something to cover my boobs in my dress (white dress, cut in a way that I can't wear a bra). My boobs are pretty small (a/b), and so I'm wanting a way to cover my nips, but possibly add some volume. Has anyone used these press on covers?
I don't care about cleavage (in fact, my dress covers my chest). If you know a better solution, I'd love to hear it!!

I had something like that year ago- like in my early twenties, pre kids. They were annoying to put on because they are sticky, so it was hard to get both sides even. But once they were on correctly they gave a very tiny bit of support and maybe a teeny bit of volume, and stayed put well enough for a photo shoot at least.
Now, ten years and two breastfed kids later... Nope. But if you only need coverage not support its a decent option, just be prepared to take a few tries to get them even.

I'm an A cup and I've bought similar items (one from Victoria's Secret and the other from Nordstrom) and they work well for me.
ETA: the Nordstrom one that I currently have is made by NuBra.

@Shantuck: Thank you! That's totally the brand I was trying to think of, but couldn't find!!

I have something like that and it works ok. More support than nothing but not as much as a bra.

@Maysprout: Thanks! I don't really need support, as I have the smallest boobs (thanks, breastfeeding) ... Just something to make my nips not stick out, but also add a little somethin-somethin.

I have a set like that and have used them for special event-type dresses and never really had an issue. It takes a bit of effort to get them on right/stuck on but once they are set they seem to stay put. I think it will definitely be fine for the amount of time for a photo shoot- I've worn mine to a wedding before and they stayed!

I'm a size A and had no issues wearing them with my dresses. It doesn't give me any lift... since I don't have much to lift up anyways. It does provide coverage and a little bit of volume. Be careful if you sweat a lot on a hot day.
