I have two of these bras, one black and one nude, and the black one is significantly smaller! The black one fits pretty well, but the nude is much too big in the cups.

The band on this bra feels a bit loose for me and thus it doesn't provide much support. It is fairly comfortable though. The sides encase my boobs, but the wire doesn't come up very high. This is a good bra for lounging around. The design is simple and the bra material feels high quality.

This bra does push up pretty well, especially for bottom-heavy breasts. However, I recommend sizing up due to the padding.

nice smooth bra. It doesnt create any cleavage for me and is a little east west as i look down at it, though not really noticeable in a shirt. My biggest complaint is that the bra fits seemingly perfectly when i put it on but as i wear it the underwire can be somewhat uncomfortable over time and more annoyingly my breast seems to fall into sort of disappear. I have significant gaping at the top. The 30 DD was too small in the cup and in the band. The leotard band is flattering and comfortable. Also i like that the lace has mesh underneath it on the band and thick elastic which hopefully will help extend its longevity. Also the dots do not protrude from the fabric and dont show under thin shirts

This bra is adorable and quite comfortable! It fit my shallow breasts well in my normal size.

The only issue I had at first is that the vertical seam on the front of each cup was sort of oddly shaped after packaging and shipping, giving it a kind of pointy/square shape when wearing a shirt. Because my breast tissue is soft, my boobs didn't immediately round it out when putting it on, but it did get better after wearing it around for an evening - it seemed to be just a temporary problem due to it being new.

I have this bra in nude an 30D aswell, which I loved when the cups fit.

This particular bra I have in black, which is not very stretchy at all. I managed to stretch it to 30 inches but that was with difficulty. It feels pretty good on my 24/25 inch ribcage on the smallest hook.

The cups are padded at the bottom, so there's not much "depth" where you measure across, but it pushes everything inwards to the middle for cleavage. I'm getting less cleavage in this bra than the 30D one, but the quadboobing is gone completely from my smaller ... boob. (There is a teeny tiny bit on my larger boob, but I think it is okay).

I really like the dramatic plunge, and it's really comfortable all around.

My only complaint is that the straps could be thicker to add more support and looks, but I guess this is aimed towards a younger crowd, so it's fine.

Update: The 30 band is actually too big for me. Just shows that time spent in the dressing room isn't always enough time to determine if the band will stretch out to your body heat or not. It still feels like a 28, but 28's are too large for me.

Another update: After taking the band in a bit, the quadboob that I was getting is even more dramatic now.

It fits almost perfect, and mine did when I first got it. Just with migration and slight fluctuation the bra doesn't fit as well as I'd like. It is incredibly comfortable, but a band size too big, so hard to say if it has stretched. Over all, a win win. However, it's not truly a Full Bloom bra, it a bra that Wacoal no longer carries. It's almost like the bull bloom, but with a seem across and down on the bottom half.

Pretty pink lace with nice floral pattern. good quality. This is my only unlined bra to help me fit in S size shirts, although I prefer lined ones.

Another bra that doesn't fit me anymore. i only wore this one a few times and have the matching thong with tags on it still. i think the cups are a little flimsy compared to other bras and it's not as suportive as one would expect. Overall, a pretty bra with some nice lace details.

Cups are WAY too big at the top. I only fill them about half way. Had thought initially that it was only the lace that was baggy and loose but upon second tru on realized that the cup itself may be too deep?

Feels very sturdy, lovely lace decorating the cups. It's a half cup, with a center seam in each cup. Over all shape is curved, with a very slight point at the seam line.

Update: Well, after I scoop everything in, I do quadriboob. The band is a little big, but I really like it, and will continue wearing. If only there was a 30E/DDD...

Soft, molded cups, feels comfortable. Padding at the bottom is very light. Color is a darker nude, lace trimming is not noticeable under semi-fitted clothing.

Update: The band fits best for me on the last hook, so the band is a little big. Otherwise, fantastic.

Too big in the band, too small in the cup. What can I say? I'm good at buying the wrong bras over the years. This was at least CLOSER to my correct size of 28FF than many others before it. Still not good on me, it slipped off my shoulders and moved around quite a bit.

While a huge improvement over my 32A collection, this bra is not ideal. I quad boob after scooping but breast tissue rapidly escapes out of the bra. The wire width is good but doesn't go high enough on the sides, and if I lift my arms, the bra slides up and rests on my boobs. The bra design is plain but a good t-shirt bra.

Pros: available in store, better than 32A
Cons: loose band allows breast to escape and I need all the breast I can get

Cups are wayyy too small for a 30DDD, more like a 30D. Wanted this to work as it was on clearance for a round $6.

The 32DDD was too small in the cups. The next size available was a 32G which I felt was a little big in the cups.

The cups were far too small on this one.

This is a bra of ironies. First the idea that this is called the soft-touch push-up. Well in DDD and G cups, the straps aren't padded, so no "soft-touch" for me. Then there's the fact that I was able to find a push-up bra in a 30DDD (30E) at all. They are hard to come by, presumably because bra makers assume that the only reason a woman might want padding is to look larger, whereas in my case, I just want to equalize my breasts on top.

But most surprising of all is that I think this is my favorite bra. It gives me the shape I most ... favor: rounded, lifted but minimized. And it's surprisingly comfortable. I put it on right out of the box and literally didn't take it off until bedtime.

The irony is that it is also the cheapest. I purchased it for $30 USD, less than half of what I've paid for some of my bras. I think that a lot of it just reflects how much I'm learning about what I need from a bra. And on closer inspection, you can see some very clumsy stitching around the gore and inner wires. The materials are cheaper as well.

The center pull straps (a feature more bras should offer) are nice and narrow and the white lace detailing, combined with the black fabric and little pink rosette at the center gore made me think of prom or homecoming and girls' corsages.

Which is appropriate, I suppose, since b.temptd seems to be Wacoal's junior or starter brand. The band is surprisingly snug for a US 30, though not as snug as the band on Parfait by Affinitas' Charlotte.

Not all of their 30s are just as snug though, so be advised.

All in all, I thought I'd never pay just $30 for a bra that actually fit me. What a nice surprise.

After some wear, I've decided the band is too long after all. Will be returning.

The cups of this bra was just a bit small, that the padding doesn't work as it should. It sort of lifts away from the chest and boobs escape a little to the side and the bottom of the bra.

When I adjust it and scoop the tissue in, there is a quadraboob effect, but then it escapes again to the side and bottom.

Could have probably used a larger cup, but it does give the cleavage that is advertised.

Because the band is to big for me (25 inch ribcage) there is poor support, but would definitely work better for slightly larger ribcages.

Overall it is a really beautiful bra, but I recommend ordering a cup size larger if you are on the larger side of that cup (Not sure if it is made in DD though)!
