Important: These instructions are crafted exclusively for Gold Seal CustomSkin prosthetics. Using these adhesives or methods on other brands may damage your prosthetics, void your warranty, or lead to poor adhesion. Always prioritize the care instructions specific to your breast forms.
With the return of the Gold Seal CustomSkin trio, Marilyn, Audrey and Bridgitte, there is no better time to master your application technique. Proper attachment and maintenance are essential for longevity — ensuring your breast forms remain beautiful, secure, and ready for wear every single day.
Essential Care for Your Gold Seal CustomSkin
Treat your prosthetics like a true extension of your own skin. Because the Gold Seal CustomSkin line features delicate, transparent edges for a seamless, realistic look, they require more gentle handling than other lines, such as the Divine Collection.
Handle with Precision: Avoid excessive tugging or yanking. Be mindful of long nails and jewelry, as these can snag the high-quality silicone.
Safety First: While Gold Seal CustomSkin is technically sleep-safe, it is best to wear a bra if you choose to sleep in them to ensure they stay securely in place. However, keep in mind that the edges are very fragile; if you move around significantly in your sleep, the resulting movement and pressure can cause the silicone to rip. For the best longevity, we recommend removing them before bed.
Cosmetic Compatibility: You can safely blend your look with makeup, but it must be water-based. Silicone-based makeup can cause permanent staining.
Practice Makes Perfect: Experiment with placement at home before a big event. Rushing the application can compromise the bond.
Pro Tip: For the smoothest results, shave the application area 24 hours in advance. Avoid moisturizing lotions that can interfere with adhesive performance.
Step 1: Prep Your Skin for Gold Seal CustomSkin
A long-lasting bond starts with a clean surface. Wash your skin using a non-moisturizing, antibacterial soap.
Stay Clear of Residue: Do not apply lotions, oils, or creams after washing.
Complete Dryness: Ensure your chest is 100 % dry. For an extra-clean surface, you may also wipe the area with isopropyl alcohol.
Control Moisture: Apply a sweat barrier like Divine Collection Stay Dry or a fine dusting of zinc oxide powder to keep your skin dry under the form.
Step 2: Check Your Placement
Before applying any glue, stand in front of a mirror to find the perfect alignment. Precise placement is key to achieving the natural look Gold Seal CustomSkin is known for.
Step 3: Choose Your Adhesive
Select the adhesive that best matches your daily activity level:
Ideal for a light, comfortable everyday hold.
Spray a thin layer in the center of the prosthetic.
Wait 3 — 6 minutes until the surface is tacky but not wet.
Apply a Skin Tac Wipe to your chest and wait 30 — 60 seconds.
Press your Gold Seal CustomSkin onto the skin with firm, steady pressure.
If edges lift, use Divine Collection Silicone Medical Adhesive to secure them.
A stronger hold designed for high movement or long-duration wear.
Shake the bottle thoroughly.
Spray a thin layer on both the prosthetic and your skin.
Wait until both surfaces feel tacky.
Press the form into place and hold with firm pressure.
Seal any loose edges with Divine Collection Silicone Medical Adhesive.
Maximum precision for edge-to-edge security.
Shake the bottle well.
Use a cotton pad to apply a thin layer to both your skin and the prosthetic, reaching all the way to the edges.
Wait until both surfaces are tacky.
Press the form onto your chest with steady, even pressure.
Use a cotton swab to touch up any areas that need extra security.
Step 4: Allow the Adhesive to Bond
Allowing the adhesive to properly set ensures the best results. Wearing a tight-fitting garment or bra for the first 30 — 60 minutes will help create a powerful, reliable bond between the Gold Seal CustomSkin and your body.
Step 5: Removal and Clean Up
When your day is done, take your time with removal to protect the delicate edges of your Gold Seal CustomSkin.
Gently Peel: Start from the bottom and slowly lift the form away from your body.
Dissolve the Bond: Using an adhesive remover (we recommend SilicONE Remover), dip a cotton swab into the liquid and gently wipe the space between the silicone and your skin. Work in small sections.
Cleanse Residue: Once removed, use the remover to gently clear any lingering glue from your skin and the prosthetic.
Final Wash: Use a specialized, non-moisturizing soap like Divine Collection Breast Form Wash. Cleanse the form thoroughly, rinse, and air dry.
Note: Never soak your Gold Seal CustomSkin in adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol. The silicone may absorb these chemicals, which could irritate your skin during your next wear.
