Bra Review & Comparison: Comexim Moulin Rouge 3HC (custom), 60HH vs. 60J

It’s nearly Valentine’s Day and that makes my long overdue review of this beautiful Comexim bra timely again: don’t miss their 30% off sale which runs until Feb 14^th. Keep reading for some of my favorite VDay sale picks after my review! As my regular readers will be well aware, I’ve had a lot of success with Comexim’s lightly padded bras in the past. My best fit ever is this gorgeous custom half cup set. However, finding unlined bras that fit is always a challenging for me. I rarely have more than one or two that I really enjoy wearing at any time. Since I found some of my best fitting bras in Comexim’s lightly padded vertical seam half cup cut, it seemed logical to try the same cut in an unlined style. Vertical seam half cups are generally my best fit across most brands. Joanna at Comexim graciously offered to make me an unlined Moulin Rouge, typically offered as a balcony cut, as a 3HC (half cup with 2 vertical seams) instead. I first ordered the same size as my lined styles (60HH), but ended up trying two sizes, which I’ll compare here.

Valentine’s Day lingerie: beauty and bras makeup matchmaker edition

Personally, I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day because my partner thinks it’s dumb. 🙂 And anyway, when it comes to lingerie, I buy and wear what I choose for myself to feel amazing. I don’t tend to gravitate towards sexy lingerie that isn’t practical the rest of the year. Still, I enjoy the idea of Valentine’s Day lingerie for its romantic themes and design inspiration, and to peruse fun, beautiful and/or functional pieces to add to my collection, especially since traditional “Valentine” colors like red and black are perennially underrepresented in my bradrobe.
