Wardrobe Guide: Our 3 Top-Rated Organic Cotton Bras for Post-Mastectomy Needs

For women with breast cancer, the mental battles brought by treating their condition are just as challenging to overcome as the physical obstacles. Unfortunately, the changes to their body image brought by treatments and surgeries take a toll on their self-esteem, psyche, and confidence. 

According to BreastCancer.Org, treatments like chemotherapy, mastectomy, and hormonal therapy may leave women with bodies that they may not recognize. These physical changes lead to challenges in terms of looking for the right clothes, finding confidence in large crowds, and staying comfortable. 

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let us help the brave women bring the feeling of comfort and confidence back to themselves through 100% organic cotton clothing.

1. Women's Bra Liner

Moisture-wicking allergy-free bra

We know how important it is to keep sensitive skin dry and protected from irritation, and how hard this can be when wearing a bra during physical activity. This is why we made a hypoallergenic bra liner with 100% chemical-free, GOTS-certified organic cotton and rapid moisture-wicking properties that keep your skin dry and safe from itchy and irritating synthetic fabrics.

2. Women's Front Closure Support Bra

Soft, supportive, all-cotton bra safe for all-day rotation

For uncompromising comfort and convenience, it’s hard to beat a front-closure bra. But what makes ours a cut above the rest is an easy-on, easy-off design without those pesky hook-and-eye closures coupled with 100% chemical-free, GOTS-certified organic cotton fabric that gives you smooth, comfortable coverage and prevention of allergic reactions.

3. Women's Front Closure Support Bra (Queen)

Non-restrictive allergy-free bra befitting queens

Whether you’re leaning against your chair in the office, doing some light exercise, or simply lounging around the house, wearing the right bra can make them that much more comfortable. Our hypoallergenic front-clasp bra ensures itch-free comfort and superior support all day with 100% chemical-free, GOTS-certified organic cotton fabric and without those irritating hook-and-eye fasteners.

Aside from these bras, others also opt to wear t-shirts and camisoles for convenience and comfort. Clothes that are smooth and loose are perfect for people who are highly sensitive to the fabric. The softer the fabric, the less irritation. 

Also, you might want to avoid tight clothing, especially those that constrict around the port area. If you're looking for comfortable tops that are supremely lightweight, breathable, and easy to put on, check out our hypoallergenic garments made with 100% organic cotton to give your skin the needed room to breathe.

• Women's Round Neck Cap Sleeve Shirt
  Dependable allergy-free wardrobe essential

Most t-shirts are made with cotton-synthetic blends and are finished with toxic chemicals and dyes that can cause skin irritations. So we made a hypoallergenic t-shirt without any of the harmful synthetics and fabric finishes and made only with 100% chemical-free, GOTS-certified organic cotton. This makes it light, airy, and comfortable while being delicate on the skin - a perfect everyday staple for women with sensitive skin.

• Women's Camisole
  Cool, comfy, and allergy-free piece women should have

Slip into something cool and comfy that won’t irritate sensitive skin! Made with 100% chemical-free, GOTS-certified organic cotton fabric and shoulder straps together with flat seam stitching and an irritation-free label, our camisole is as cool and gentle on the skin as the breeze on a warm summer day. Perfect for relaxed daywear or cozy sleepwear for women with sensitive skin.

TAKEAWAY: At Cottonique, we believe that wearing clothes should not feel like a chore. When your old clothes feel destabilizing and make you uncomfortable, muster the courage to discard them, invest in a few new key basics, and remind yourself that you, just like others, deserve to be comfortable too. 

As fearless women muster the strength to recover from mastectomy treatments and surgeries, we hope that we can help you regain some normalcy with our 100% organic cotton clothes designed to provide comfort and support without irritation. 

Struggling with your self-esteem is completely normal and valid. Just take things easy, treat your body and mind diligently, and always practice self-love.
