I refuse to pay $200 for Skims’ sell-out nipple bra so made my own using Temu, it gives big, perky boobs with no surgery
A WOMAN’S refusal to pay $200 for a Skims sell-out nipple bra, has forced her to get creative.
Using items from Temu, her knock-down, cut-price version still gave her big perky boobs with no surgery.
Her method was easy and quick to do, though she admitted the correct positioning of the nipples could be challenging.
But she even had a way of remedying that.
It was well worth the effort for Natalie Bright (@bynataliebright), who has 143,000 followers on her TikTok.
“Got to get creative when I can’t afford it,” she said in her post, as she prepared to make her “DIY Skims bra dupe.”
Natalie loved the look of this viral hit, but the cost was far too prohibitive.
“Kim Kardashian your bra is sold out everywhere and I refuse to pay $200 on Ebay for it.”
Not one to give up on the dream, she came up with a novel solution: “So I just made my own,” she said.
She held out a fistful of metal pins: “I got these little rivets on Temu,” she explained.
“It’s like $2 for 100 of them. I probably could have gone a size bigger. This will do.”
Using one of her existing bras, she got to work: “So you push these pins down, and you can fold little legs over.
“Locate where you want your nipples to be and then you can push these things in.”
It could be problematic, she admitted: “It’s a little tricky because it looks right but then once I put it on, it looks like this.”
At this point, she was way off target and her nipples had gone awry.
So, using a pen, she was able to replace the pins to correct nipple position.
“And then tada! And doesn’t it look like the Skims bra?” she beamed brightly, delighted with her achievement.
Despite creating her own version of the successful Skims item, Natalie was still full of praise for its creator.
“And I will give you credit Kim Kardashian for this invention because this is genius.”
Things were definitely looking up: “It makes you look like you have big perky boobs without the surgery,” she figured.
“But sorry for the dupe. Free the dimples.”
Her DIY Skims nipple bra gave commenters pause for thought.
“Girl you’re smart. You going viral soon,” said one person.
While another said: “I love it DIY queen.”
