Droopy breasts


Reversing gravity (not to mention the effects of hormonal changes like pregnancy) is a tall beauty order. Cold water and ice cubes work fleetingly but aren't viable on a long-term basis - although the seriously disciplined could try Clarins' Model Bust for an uplifting home hydrotherapy treatment: plugged onto the bath ( or basin) tap, it directs jets of cold water over the breasts to tighten and tone.

After which you apply treatments from Clarins' Bust care range: Bust Beauty Tonic, Bust Beauty Lotion and Bust Beauty Gel, which devotees swear by for their tautening, tightening effects.

Other bust-booster designed for daily use: Decloeor's Galbeor harmonie, Lancome's softening, tightening Energibuste and Shiseido's Essential energy Bust Firming Lotion, designed to soften and tighten.

In salons, Clarins also offers the Paris Method Bust Treatment, known as the Rolls Royce of Bust treatments. Definitely not for the terminally body-shy, it includes a check on deportment and skin elasticity, a bra check (to make sure yours is fulfilling its Best Supporting Role) and a skin-smoothing massage. A better long-term bet for bust firmness is exercise - like swimming ( the ultimate chest-firmer) or weight-training exercises spot-targeted to the pectoral muscles. The I-must-I-must-increase-my-bust exercises we did as teenagers - clasping our palms together, at bust level, and pressing them together - still work a treat too.
