Pasties have long been used by even the classiest women out there who don't want others to know that they're not wearing a bra. These particular pasties add an extra level of awesome by being made of fabric, and holding up even in wet environments.

They come to you in a large white envelope sorta deal. At 7 1/2"x 5" it's not the smallest thing ever, but it does lay flat really nicely for stashing in a drawer. To get started, just flip it open and pull out everything, which consists of two pairs of heart shaped pasties, 4 nipple pads (mine had 5) and 2 mini pasties that can be stuck wherever as a cute or sexy addition to your outfit (or lack thereof).

Once it's open, the top half has directions in English on how to use, and included inside the envelope is a little pamphlet that also has directions in German, Spanish, French, Italian, and an Asian language that I cannot correctly identify.

The actual pasties themselves come in at about 2 3/4" across at their widest point and about 2 1/2" tall and are made of Nylon with an adhesive backing. Putting them on is really easy without pierced nipples, and if your jewelry is smaller in size, not much more difficult with it in place. First you peel off the bottom half of the sticker, then place on a protective nipple pad and get the bottom settled in place on your breast. If you have smaller nipples, the pad should be fine just on its own, but if you have larger nipples, I suggest getting them hard to make it easier for the 1 1/8" nipple pad to cover your nipple, because otherwise it might get caught under the adhesive, and that's really gonna hurt to take off. Once you've done that, remove the top backing and smooth into place, gliding your hand up and out to smooth out air bubbles on the way.

They aren't advertised as being reusable, and I haven't yet found a way to reuse them that didn't seem overly ridiculous. However, while rather pricey for a few one time use only items, these Nippies are amazing. They are really comfortable, you can wear them out dancing and sweat and they won't just start to fall off. I wanted to show you a picture of them in action, but I still wasn't sure about whether or not I could post a boob pic, even if the naughty parts were covered. So I took a picture of it on the back of my hand, since I couldn't get this one to re-stick itself to my stomach.

These come in a variety of styles; Eden carries a bunch of them, but for the ones that Eden doesn't carry, their website has a few more options available to you.

I could have worn these for 12 hours or more, they were so comfortable. I actually fell asleep in them for an hour or two and that didn't seem to phase them (or me) one bit.

The only problem I had with them was that when one of my nipples started to itch (entirely on its own) I couldn't scratch it very well through the fabric. I also wish they covered a bit more evenly. It wasn't that my nipples weren't completely covered, I'm just a whore for symmetry and these were so visually top-heavy that that was all I could focus on for a while when looking at them in the mirror.

All in all, well worth the money, but not as an everyday item.

These are still "occasion" pasties for me, so I haven't really had a chance to use them since the initial review. However, for a recent tattoo I was told that we'd be going pretty high up my back which meant no bra. These were the very first thing I thought of since I had them at home already. I had them on for over 12 hours, no discomfort, nothing. Pulled a little bit of hair removing them but that was it. I still maintain the stance that the only thing that could make these better would be if they were reusable.
