Padded vs pushup

What is the difference between the two? More specifically which one has more padding/ is thicker?
I hear padded and push up and think they're the same thing (like VS bras) but I know they're not.

  • Prettyncharmeuse The pushups usually have a cookie or a chick fillet built into the bottom of the cup to "Pushup" and usually in a little bit.

  • In the common american vernacular, they're largely the same, because most women solely wear molded bras so they only refer to bras with *extra* padding as "padded."

    However, around here, padded just means any bra containing any layer of padding, because we wear a lot more unpadded bras :) pushup would be any bra inteaded to push up the breasts, usually with an extra piece of padding at the bottom.
