Straps!
I often leave my straps loose because they feel comfortable. I KNOW! Bad move! I've neglected my straps for so long. With my new Freya bras, which has longer straps, I actually had to tighten them so they don't fall off. It feels great whatever. Then I experiments with my Marcie and BANG, at first it went from what I thought was too big + full on bottom shape + pointy because too deep to just a little too open on top. And it's more comfortable. I always worried that tightening the straps would make the cutting in of the sides on the straps (BRA COMPANIES, STOP THE FUCKING LACE ON THE STRAPS, IT HURTS) and it instead bra my boobs up to a before imaginary height for me as well as got rid of the stupid lacy strap problem because the sides of the cups aren't lacy (and they cut in instead, but in an infinitely more comfortable way).
And also, I finally have cleavage that doesn't lessen throughout the day in my EM PL.
Let this be a lesson to newbies not to neglect the straps.

I discovered yesterday that when I tighten the straps, the shape improves in my Andorra bras! What I got before was very pointy and weird, but it gets a little more rounded when I tighten. The straps felt okay before tightening so i thought there is no need to do that.
