How to Clean and Maintain Pasties: Keeping Your Nipple Covers Fresh and Sticky

Pasties are fantastic accessories that provide coverage and confidence when wearing revealing outfits. However, to ensure their longevity and effectiveness, it's crucial to keep them clean and sticky. In this guide, we'll walk you through valuable tips on how to clean different types of pasties, including silicone nipple covers, and how to make them sticky again. With proper care, you can enjoy the benefits of your nipple covers for a long time. Let's get started!

1. Cleaning Fabric and Adhesive Nipple Covers

Fabric nipple covers and those with adhesive backing need special care to maintain their effectiveness and stickiness.

Step 1: Gently Remove the Pasties: Before cleaning, gently peel off the nipple covers from your skin. Take care not to pull or stretch the fabric, as it may lose its shape.

Step 2: Wash with Mild Soap and Water: For fabric pasties, wash them by hand using a mild soap and lukewarm water. Gently rub the soap on the covers and rinse thoroughly to remove any body oils or residue.

Step 3: Air Dry Completely: After washing, let the pasties air dry completely. Avoid using towels or tissues, as they may leave lint on the adhesive side.

Step 4: Refresh the Adhesive (for adhesive-backed pasties): If your pasties have lost their stickiness, you can make them sticky again. Apply a small amount of skin-safe adhesive, such as spirit gum or eyelash adhesive, to the back of the covers. Let the adhesive dry according to the product's instructions before wearing them again.

2. Cleaning Silicone Nipple Covers

Silicone nipple covers require gentle care to preserve their adhesive properties and shape.

Step 1: Gently Peel Off and Rinse: Carefully remove the silicone pasties from your skin, being cautious not to stretch or tear them. Rinse them under lukewarm water to remove any body oils or residue.

Step 2: Use Mild Soap or Shampoo: Apply a small amount of mild soap or baby shampoo to the silicone covers and gently clean them with your fingers. Avoid using harsh chemicals or brushes that could damage the delicate surface.

Step 3: Rinse and Pat Dry: Thoroughly rinse the soap off with water, ensuring no soap residue remains. Pat the pasties dry with a soft, clean towel. Avoid using tissues, as they may leave fibers on the silicone.

Step 4: Store Appropriately: To maintain the adhesive, place the clean silicone pasties back on the plastic backing they came with or cover them with a cling film. Store them in their original case or a clean, dust-free container.

3. General Tips for Cleaning Pasties:

 

  • Always refer to the manufacturer's cleaning instructions for specific care guidelines.

  • Avoid using alcohol-based products or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the pasties.

  • Never wring or twist fabric pasties, as it can deform their shape.

  • Do not use powders or talc on silicone covers, as they can reduce the adhesive's effectiveness.

Conclusion:

Properly cleaning and maintaining your pasties is essential to extend their lifespan and keep them sticky and effective. Whether you have fabric or silicone nipple covers, following these simple cleaning steps will ensure you can confidently wear them with various outfits. Remember to use gentle, skin-safe products and store them appropriately to keep your pasties fresh and ready for many uses to come!
