If warmer weather means something a little different for you — namely, the return of boob sweat and chafing — the Bali One Smooth U Ultra Light Bra is worth a look, and it's heating up the Amazon charts. The No. 1 bestseller has earned more than 23,000 five-star reviews from relieved shoppers who can venture out in spring and summer's swampiest weather without feeling drenched, constricted and uncomfortable. Right now, you can snap one up for 60% off or more, thanks to Amazon's Big Spring Sale.
This full-coverage cooling bra has convertible straps and comes in 10 colors. Bring on those racerback tank tops!
You can't go wrong with a $19 bra — it's 60% off or more in some colors and sizes. This is also the lowest price on the web at the moment, but we don't expect the sale price to stick around much longer. Cooling clothing items will be in higher demand as the temps start climbing.
Five-star reviewers say this Bali bra has nothing short of magical powers. "This bra is very breathable and doesn't feel like the girls are sweating," wrote one. Another fan agreed: "You can hardly feel that you have a bra on in hot, humid weather. Bought two more after wearing the first one!" It helps that the cooling fabric is thin, keeping skin from getting too stuffy. It's also seamless, which goes a long way toward preventing warm-weather chafing.
Another major draw of the Bali One Smooth U Ultra Light: You can wear it under all those thin tees and tanks without the whole world getting a clear view of your undergarments. "It's very smooth with no lace detail or noticeable edges, so it doesn’t show underneath even my slinky-feeling T-shirts," a fan revealed.
One shopper gave this red-hot cooling bra a "10/10" and even proclaimed that it "conceals back fat." Plenty of others agree — this is a no-brainer for your warm-weather wardrobe.
"Fits so nice and comfortably," wrote a devotee. "Makes my boobs appear smaller and offers support. Minimal spillage for once! Reduced back fat! Bonus!"
Another wearer agreed: "Tried several other brands for 'minimizer' or 'smoother' type bras. Followed measurement guidelines for size. This is the only one that fits well and separates things for larger busts. Other brands just squished things together. This bra is very soft and comfortable, and it has a very thin layer of material that helps hide the nips."
"Comfortable at last," said a third reviewer. "It fits like a dream. No pinching, chafing, or poking."
"This bra is the most comfortable bra I have worn in a long time," marveled another mega-fan. "I just ordered two more in different colors. I wore it to work (dental assistant) and I didn’t have to pull it down or adjust it once. Very lightweight and very thin padding."
One reviewer recommended sizing down. They said: "Adjusted straps all the way down, and the bra was still clearly a cup size too big. It was nice and stretchy, and definitely as breathable as advertised ... I will say there's a super-cheap plastic gem thing hanging from the center that's totally unnecessary and doesn't add to the style. Clip that off, and the peek of mesh at the top of the cup keeps this bra pretty and classy!"
