If you study the history of the evolution of a bathing suit, you can easily notice how rapidly the area covered by skin tissue is rapidly decreasing. Some bikinis are so tiny that they hide almost nothing, sometimes completely exposing their breasts. This raises the question of which part of the bust can be exposed without fear of being charged with immorality. For some reason, it was the bare nipple that was declared the border beyond which frank vulgarity begins.
Therefore, if you cover the areola, then the rules of decency will be respected. It was these considerations that guided the brave ladies who thought of sticking small circles on their nipples to go to the topless beach. Yes, a stikini is just a circle of paper or silicone, covering the nipple and a pigmented nasal circle.
What is a stikini and how did they come about?
Stikini became widespread thanks to tanning salons and research designed to prove the safety of artificial tanning. Scientists have found that excess ultraviolet radiation is harmful in general, and doubly for pigmented skin areas. Now stikini is the same familiar accessory in tanning salons as disposable shoe covers in hospitals.
The mammary glands of a woman are an extremely delicate organ, it requires increased care, especially when you consider that pathologies are not so rare. Therefore, doctors recommend unnecessarily not exposing the bust to excessive radiation, covering moles, age spots, including nipples. In this case, you can make a stikini for a tanning salon with your own hands. To do this, it is enough to cut a circle out of a paper patch, it does not adhere strongly to the skin, holds firmly enough and is easily removed.
Stykini for a sunbed
Modern industry quickly responded to a sudden demand. A wide variety of stikini appeared on sale, photos of which can be seen in this article. The production uses laminated or metallized self-adhesive paper, which must be tested for impermeability with ultraviolet light.
In addition, silicone reusable models are available for sale, which can be used in other areas of life, not only in tanning salons. Silicone stikini is an alternative to a bra if breast support is not required.
A tribute to morality or a useful accessory?
If the breast does not require a bra, is it even possible to do without it? Many women feel uncomfortable, nipples rub against clothes, tighten, become clearly visible through a thin fabric, this is embarrassing and attracts excessive attention. In this situation, stikini is a real salvation, because a circle of flesh-colored, tightly glued to the body, protects the delicate areas of the skin, and under the clothes the chest looks smooth.
However, everything has a downside, you can choose a model that not only does not hide the chest, but also attracts attention to it. Dancers and artists can use bright and even luminous stikini, photos of which can be seen in special departments of stores and even sex shops. Of course, nipple stickers continue to be used by ladies of different ages to afford topless sunbathing on the beach, while paying minimal tribute to decency.
What can be used instead of stikini
If during a visit to the solarium it turned out that the institution does not offer free stikini or they have ended (which, of course, is unacceptable), then there is the opportunity to make stikini for the solarium with your own hands. If you lie down during the tanning procedure, then the nipples can be covered with circles of fabric or paper. You can use a light cream as an alternative to glue or use a paper surgical plaster if the tanning bed is equipped with standing cabins.
If the stikini for a tanning bed is not suitable in size, too large, then ugly white marks may remain around the nipples. It is very simple to trim the stickers; they can be trimmed with scissors to give the desired size or shape. If the nipples are convex, then the stikinis are cut along the radius so that they can be folded into a convenient wide cone.
This device is inexpensive, bright colors and patterns can be chosen at will, especially if the sticker is designed to create the appropriate image. The desire to get rid of the upper part of the swimsuit is understandable, so stikini can be considered the last greetings from outdated morality. Of course, do not forget about the practical benefits, doctors insist that it is advisable to avoid excessive ultraviolet radiation, and it is better to listen to them.
