Top Reasons You Should Start Wearing Cotton Undergarments

When it comes to bra shopping, many things come into play – fit, support, comfort. When it comes to those with sensitive skin, however, fabric is usually where it all begins. Whether you have sensitive skin or not, cotton is a popular fabric for its versatility and breathability, making it a fantastic choice for your first layer. Keep reading to find out why you should buy a cotton bra…

 

What to Look for in Cotton Undergarments

Cotton is an extremely popular fabric; however, there is definitely some “bad” cotton out there. When shopping for your next cotton set, be sure you’re investing in a higher quality fabric to ensure less pilling & peak softness. Organic cotton is an amazing choice when looking for high-quality cotton – and it’s a great sustainable option, too!

Aside from the quality of fabric, cotton undergarments should have the same expectations as any other bra or undie on the market. Be sure to keep the fit, support, and comfort in mind when shopping. While being hypoallergenic is a huge plus, especially for those with sensitive skin, you shouldn’t have to sacrifice on long-lasting support and style – you deserve the best of both worlds!

Benefits of Wearing Cotton Bras & Underwear

Wearing cotton bras and undies is not only great for those with irritation-prone skin types, but for those annoyed by dreaded underboob sweat and want to stay comfy all day long as well. Compared to synthetic fibers – such as polyester, rayon, acrylic, and more – cotton allows air to circulate more freely, giving it moisture-wicking properties, making it cool and not clingy. Along with these benefits, cotton is also a great option for those who want to make a positive environmental impact. It’s been found that cotton production reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 46% and reduces waterway pollution by 26%.

 

Why Cotton is the Best Fabric for Summertime

Like mentioned above, due to its breathability and moisture-wicking benefits, cotton is the best fabric for summertime bras. Cotton bras also come in a wide array of styles. Whether wearing it under a breezy top or dress, or maybe simply on its own, cotton bras are the best option in staying cool in not-so-cool weather.

Excessive underboob sweat and itchy skin are common ailments of the hotter months, however, aren’t exclusive to summer. Be sure to stay comfortable and confident in every season with the help of a quality cotton bra.
