We stumbled across the aptly named “Liftits” product by UCS in Lyon’s recent trade fair, Lyon Mode City. Among a number of great “first aid” products, UCS have developed a see through adhesive patch which once applied promises to “re-perkify” your breasts. Their video does show a noticeable lift of the breasts, particularly useful for those outfits where a bra will just not do. (Watching it on fast speed is most fun!)
It is also claimed that the patches are suitable for swimming, which is always good to know, and will make my skinnydipping more…ahhh, palatable. However, as today’s earlier blog highlights boob sagginess caused by jogging, I would suggest the Liftitis are not a jogging solution.

I am about the clumsiest person you can find. When I was young, I scrapped my knees countless times, fallen off the mango tree in my house, trip on sidewalks, etc. So much so that mum had to keep an updated first aid kit in the medicine cabinet for my clumsy antics.Now that I'm much older, it still doesn't stop. I've lost count of the number of times I twisted my ankle (just by walking! I know blame it on my weak ankle :p). And my first aid kit's so outdated (most of the "potions and lotions", as I like to call it, have gone past their expiry date!), it really is time I get a new one, and keep it well-stocked (that's very important), when any of the supplies have depleted.Shopping.com has quite a good selection of first aid kits, and individual supplies (xeroform petrolatum gauze dressing, how cool is that? :p). A plus point about the site is that it allows you to make comparison of prices of the same product, sold at different stores. The same product can cost from $3 to $39! I w
