General Information
How are BOOMBA inserts different?
A lot! Unlike traditional inserts, BOOMBA's patented inserts are sticky on both sides, which means it sticks to your clothing and to your skin for extra security.Preventing nipple slips and staying hidden under clothing. Another great benefit of the double-sided adhesive is that there isno sewing required, simply stick the inserts onto the clothing item.
Since the inserts require no sewing, one pair of inserts can be interchanged between various tops and dresses. Traditional inserts (cotton) soak up too much water and if not sewn in, may move around. Silicone inserts are heavy and will slip and slide around when sweaty of wet. BOOMBA's double-sided adhesive design makes the inserts lightweight yet sweat and water resistant, allowing you to swim, run, dance and much more without budging.
What are inserts?
Inserts are traditionally removable padding that sits inside the bra cups to help provide volume and cleavage. At BOOMBA we have stepped it up a notch and created the most padded inserts on the market to give that double push up look. BOOMBA inserts also have adhesive on both sides to provide grip for clothing while allowing the user to scoop and stick their breast to their desired position for maximum push up effect.
How to use inserts?
Preparation is key! Before using BOOMBA inserts, please ensure breasts are clean and dry. Any makeup, oil, lotion or other body products may hinder the inserts from sticking onto your skin properly. Put the clothing item on your body first, then place inserts onto the clothing item, then scoop breasts and stick onto the insert to secure.
How are BOOMBA inserts made?
We at BOOMBA believe in working with factories that share the same values of quality and integrity. We have chosen to partner up with ethical, smaller manufacturers because we have found they tend to focus more on quality and take great pride in their work. They also play an important role in moving the economy along by providing jobs and opportunities to the locals in their communities.
The process of making BOOMBA double-sided adhesive inserts is a combination of machinery and craftsmanship. After the inserts have been pressed, the glue is hand-brushed by skilled workers, then cut by hand into their shape.
Marginal errors, such as tiny pieces of silicone gel may come off on skin or clothing at times. Please note that this is normal and does not affect the usage of the inserts. Even though we pride ourselves on our quality and rigorously conduct quality control, please understand that there is human error. If in any case, you feel you have purchased a defective pair or you are unsatisfied with your purchase, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us so that we can make it right.
How many times can I use BOOMBA inserts?
BOOMBA inserts are reusable up to 40 times. To prolong the life of your inserts, it is important to clean and reapply the protective films immediately after each wear to prevent dust and lint from sticking to it.
Can I use BOOMBA inserts at the gym? Can I swim in them?
BOOMBA inserts are sweat and water-resistant, you can use them at the gym and swim with them on. Please make sure that your bathing suit is tight and to avoid big waves: if your bathing suits can't stay on, neither can our inserts! :)
Are BOOMBA inserts for everyone?

Whats the difference between the three inserts?
We often get questions asking what is the difference between our three styles of inserts. We have two padded inserts, Demi Boost and Ultra Boost; and we have one lightly lined inserts, the Invisible Lift.
Demi Boost Inserts comes in an oval shape and is perfect for sweetheart necklines. It does boost up to 2 cup sizes and can also be used inside bras to turn any bra into a push up bra.
Ultra Boost Inserts come in a triangular shape and also boost up to two cup sizes, these are better in v cut tops and triangle style bikinis.
Invisible Lift Inserts is a lightly padded insert that is perfect for girls looking for a natural push up effect. These are also great for girls looking for a little added security against wardrobe malfunctions.

What to wear with BOOMBA inserts?
With BOOMBA inserts, it’s important to choose the appropriate top with your inserts. We always recommend structured tops that are made in a thicker material for best results (support in the chest area, not a loose t-shirt that hangs off the body, since the inserts are held up by the structure in your clothing).
Most bikinis, dresses and tops also work well as long as they are not too thin so that the color or shape of the insert shows through. A good guideline is that if the outline or color of your bra will show through in this top, BOOMBA inserts most likely will as well.
For some users, it does take a few tries to get it in the right position (just like getting your sticky bra to stop being lopsided), so we recommend checking out our quick tutorials for a better idea of how to use the inserts. We recommend putting the inserts on in front of a mirror to ensure it is even on both sides. You can adjust the level of cleavage according to your own preference. Just remember to scoop and stick, to ensure your cleavage stays put throughout the day!
You can see examples of some outfitshere:
Picking an Outfit
✔️ Tight and structured bust area in the clothing
✔️ Thick materials in the bust area for a seamless silhouette
✔️ Sweetheart necklines and clothing with a support band under the bust
✔️ Sports bras and regular bras (turn them into push up bras with BOOMBA!)
❌ Very stretchy tops that cannot hold the inserts in place
❌ Loose and flowy clothing that cannot support any inserts
❌ Baggy t-shirt, knitted tops, most straight-across necklines
What tops are not suitable of inserts?
We do NOT recommend using BOOMBA inserts under thin, unstructured or loose tops. In thin tops, the outline of the inserts may show through.
We recommend using BOOMBA inserts in tight tops with structure. A good guideline to know if the material of your top is thick enough to hide the outline of BOOMBA inserts, is by checking if the material is thick enough to hide the shape of your nipples.

BOOMBA INSERTS CARE
How do I clean my BOOMBA inserts
Hand wash only, do not machine wash or put in the dryer.Gently use the pad of your fingertips to wash the adhesive while avoiding contact with your fingernails to prevent damaging the adhesive. Rinse the inserts with warm water to remove any residue. Carefully shake off excess water and press on the insert lightly to squeeze out any remaining water. Allow the inserts to air dry in an area free of dust particles.
When the inserts are completely dry, reapply the protective films to prevent dust and lint from adhering to the inserts.
How do I store BOOMBA inserts?
After cleaning, apply protective film back onto the inserts and store it back in its original packaging. Keep in a cool, dark environment away from dust and debris.
Glue residue on skin?
Some users may experience a pieces of glue peeling or coming off on their clothing or skin, please note that this is normal and does not affect usage.
This occurs because of how sticky our inserts are. The less sticky the adhesive, the less chance for peeling. When we were creating BOOMBA inserts, we decided to go with the stronger adhesive, simply because we wanted to create a product that we ourselves would love. We knew that we wouldn't want sticky inserts that stopped sticking after 5 uses, so why would our customers? Not only is that bad for consumers and our reputation, but also for the environment. The biggest complaint we hear from consumers are that their sticky bras stop sticking after a few uses, so we knew we wanted to be different. When you buy a pair of BOOMBA inserts, you know you are buying a quality, long lasting product.
So although our inserts may leave glue residue on skin or clothing at times, our inserts also are truly reusable, many times over. It was a hard decision to decide whether to make it sticker and leave residue or create a product that stopped sticking after a few uses. Ultimately we decided to go with the former, because we believe as a consumer, ultimately you just want a product that works well, and works for a long time.
