Wearing a backless dress on a glam night on the town can look very chic indeed, but this sort of outfit can lead to a few logistical issues for bustier women who fear spilling out in public. Of course, while boob tape is a fabulous invention, many women would rather it not be visible, preferring a seamless look that suggests the dress is naturally being held in place, as if by magic.

Now, although there is an art to this, there are also a few tricks and tips you can try to keep everything looking sleek and tidy, as demonstrated by one buxom fashionista. Taking to TikTok, content creator Jen Warnes, who regularly shares reviews of products with large cup sizes, revealed how she keeps her boob tape hidden from view, all thanks to her eyeliner.

Savvy Jen, who wears a 28J bra, recently responded to a follower who asked whether she had "any kind of backless bra recommendations or just how to wear backless tops as a 32G". According to Jen, who goes by the username @itsjenwarnes, boob tape is the way to go when it comes to such outfits, and you'll need to root around in your makeup bag if you want to do it properly.

Jen explained: "I always mark in eyeliner the outline of the dress. That just helps us make sure that we stay within the lines and we don't accidentally tape over so the tape becomes on show". Going on to demonstrate how she applies the boob tape, Jen started off with a pair of nipple covers, warning viewers, "that's going to hurt if you don't use those".

She then went on to measure her strips, taking a medium-sized piece of tape, and removing the backing from one section which she placed beneath her chest. Jen advised: "Peel off so it's half sticky. Half sticky goes underneath your chest and then you kind of peel the paper up at the same time." After strategically placing four pieces of tape on one bosom, Jen then carried out the process on the other one, wowing followers with the lifted look she managed to achieve.
