Just wondering if anyone has ever tried these.

They supposedly turn off the headlights. Customer reviews on Amazon are very positive.

If needed, they also work as a Ninja weapon! :D

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. I haven't tried them.

OMG - I must have these. I didn't even know they existed. High beams, begone!

I have enough trouble finding bras that fit, let alone with padding so I can wear them under t-shirts. I think these discs could be a real problem-solver.

I want to buy them from Sylene, which is a local store where the sales staff has been very helpful in the past. It will be a couple of weeks before I'm able to get there, though.

Fancy pasties!

I've used bandaids before... but I don't hhave a lot to cover...

Normal bras with good padding to protect against this are the body by victoria at victorias secret. Might be too much padding for some. But definitely one of my favorite bras.

That's my two cents.

There is nothing in Victoria's Secret in my size.

Also some women use these discs under sports bras. If they don't cause skin irritation, I will try them under tank tops I wear at the gym.

I have these, and they work. By the end of the day they can be annoying...I often rip them out of my shirt on my way home. :)

Would that be in a car, on a bike or on public transportation??

I often sacrifice good fit in a bra for one that has enough padding to hide the high beams I have developed in the last few years. I HATE the high beams.

How are they annoying. Do they cause nipple chafing (being a runner and seeing all those men with bloody nipples leads me to ask this question). Can you feel them in there all day long?

When I was an 18 year old freshman in college, I lived with my aunt for one semester. She was going to a fancy party and had a dress that she couldn't wear a bra with (this was also 1971, so I don't think she wore a bra at all). About an hour before she and my uncle had to leave, she was in a panic because of the headlight effect. So, I got sent to the drugstore to buy some kind of tape for her to use... I swear, I will never forget this, because I was so amazed that she was worried about this.

I have always had high-beams, and I hate it. All my bras are padded/contour, same with my bathing suit tops. I can't buy anything I can't wear a real bra with. I love the idea of these concealers on occasion so I could actually wear a little cami with a shelf bra and no real bra. I'm not that large so could get away with it in casual situations if I could lose the high beams (and mine care naught about the temperature out. 95 degrees? Check!)

Those of you without high-beams have NO idea! :rolleyes:

It's hard to describe. They kind of irritate my skin and make me itchy. They stick to the skin. Still worth it when the clothes require them, though.

I remove them while in the car, and of course before I ride my bike.:)

thanks for answering that. I think I'm going to try a pair. I can't tell you how many times I've wished for something like this (and even tried to make my own with no luck). :)

I have always had this issue and didn't realize some people don't. Padded sports bras are a blessing for this reason alone, let alone making me look like I actually have a bust line.
But, if you have to wear this product with a bra, what good would they do me when I am wearing a sports top with a shelf bra? Something that sticks to my skin would work better. I have taken to wearing a strapless bra under my regular camis with shelf bras. I *do* wear my Terry Eurohalters quite frequently for running and yoga, as well as cycling and I try not to think about it... hoping the pattern on these tops obscures the headlights.

Headlights seem to matter to only some nations in this world and I'm happy I don't live in one of them....

Cheers to that. I wish I was in one of em!

Yes, I realize high beams don't matter to some women. I applaud the self-confidence of such women.

However...I really don't want to see their high beams at work. :rolleyes: I used to work with a gal who had large breasts and wore "soft cup" bras that did nothing to conceal them. It was very distracting...and I can only imagine what the men thought! She wasn't wearing anything "sexy", just normal tops, but it's hot here in the south, so we don't wear jackets to work. As such, I don't want to reveal all to my co-workers, and I don't want them to reveal all to me either.

I think it has nothing to do with self-confidence. This topic is just not present in some countries, you don't need "self-confidence" to ... have nipples (?) in those countries. I never even thought about this at all.

To be honest, I'm quite happy too that I don't have to worry about my nipples or the lines of my underwear showing through clothes. And I don't mean this in a "patronizing" way at all. It sounds really stressful to think about all those things!

I wonder if this is something "new" that came up in the last few years in your country? Or something you grew up with? (I hope it's not a "trend" that will affect me at some point. I wouldn't like to go through such hazzle.)

I deleted my previous post. I regret getting into this discussion; this is a private hang-up of mine and I should have left it as such.

I understand that in other countries, this is seen as having a "hang up" about natural body parts.
I am not very modest, but I really don't want my nipples showing in any professional situation, just as I don't want my azz crack showing, or any cleavage. In my job, I have to be aware of what might be "triggering," but I would be like this in any work situation. And I don't want others to see my underwear, either.
This may be cultural, and that's OK. Jobob, you didn't need to delete your post; I think everyone understands that opinions on this issue differ in different places.

It's not earth-shattering news that there are cultural differences regarding this sort of thing. Learning about attitudes different from one's own is interesting to me.

I admit the term "headlights" makes my skin crawl a little, but that's just me. I hate "buns," too.

I ordered some of the Bezi bra discs this morning. Will report back. Shipping is ridiculous ($8.50 for tiny little things?!), but with the $10 off promo for signing up for their mailing list, I was willing to give them a try.

I'll be interested to hear your opinion Emily. I wonder how they will feel in hot weather. I envision an unbearable urge to rip them off...but it would be nice to have something that worked.

Just an update -- I got these back in late June and have been very happy with them. They are comfortable. Most of the time I forget I'm using them. And they work as advertised. They're also more comfortable than a padded bra on a hot day.

Cool! I cannot seem to find ANYTHING to dim the headlights, even good bras with padding doesn't seem to help :mad: I may have to give these a shot, thanks!

I know some don't like Victoria's Secret, but if they ever discontinue the Body by Victoria bras, I will cry! I struggled to find bras for a long time, but these not only fit me well, they are actually comfortable.

Haha! My ex used to say they were so pointy they could cut glass! I'm getting to a point where for the most part, I've stopped caring. I wear a bra. If they point, they point. I have boobs. Get over it.

Headlights are annoying when one is small-breasted.

Enough said. Nevertheless I try not to worry too much. For cycling it's just not worth it. You're breezing by!!
