SDH Mixtape is water resistant and breathable, so it is swim-friendly.
For chest binding, SDH Mixtape can be worn for a few days at a time.
Colour: Colours. Also available in Skin tones and Black.
Size: 3" width. Also available in 4". 5m continuous length.
Material: 95% cotton, 5% spandex, with a medical grade acrylic adhesive that is latex-free.
Do not wrap Mixtape all the way around the chest.

After some trial and error and the very helpful taping guide they have on here, using this tape has been super easy and much less stressful than using binders everyday! these tapes have been the best quality and price I've tried, it stays on even after swimming in saltwater and freshwater, showers, and exercise. Taking it off can be a bit uncomfortable but I've found taking it off in a warm shower to be very helpful. I would definitely recommend trying taping at least once and to have a look at the guide!
Thanks for the great feedback Will. For removal, soaking the tape in oil (e.g. coconut oil) and leaving it to soak in for 10-15 mins before slowly peeling off in a hot shower helps as the oil eases up the adhesive :)
I've been using the 5" width tape for a few months now. My chest is a 10 GG cup and while it woukd be impossible to get it completely flat, If done correctly i can get everything smooth enough that the only indicator of boobs is where the fabric drapes in centre of my chest, between my boobs. This is is easilt fixed with a loose sports bra or binder when i go out, which further gives a flat affect and also extra support to prevent jiggle (a constant fear with my size). If doing this method, beware it will make you warm! I can usally keep the tape on for a week, though it depends on how well I anchored it; after a week is usually when either its slipped down my skin enough that its not reall binding, or I started noticing a funky smell from the trapped sweat (can also be mitigate depending how well its bindes). A whole role usually takes me about 3-4 goes to get through, but this is because i mess up and have to redo my bidding, causing some to go to waste. Delivary is always very timely, and i like the packaging and handwritten notes! Very sweet. My only complaint is I wish they sizes went up to a 6". TIPS/REMINDERS!!! Always ALWAYS round your corners, anchor properly, and use oil to remove. Take your time to do everything properly and stay patient, this shit can fuck you up if you're not careful! The sores hurt and prelong how much time it takes before you can reapply everything! I usually use 3-4 pieces on each side (4 blocks for each generally), but don't be afraid to experiment with lengths, and use more pieces to get everything secure/the right shape, however be aware more pieces makes removal take even longer. Be wart of binding too far to your back, i usally aim for a bit past rhe arm pit. If you've got pieces peeling off/not sticking well, I'd reccomend cutting off a very small strip and unstretched putting it on top. Highly reccomend Ornery Bellemansion's tutorial on YouTube, i don't use their exact technique, but the logic of the 'X' shape and binding down then up was very useful for figuring out how to work with my large chest and not create a push up bra affect
Good product
very good stickiness, stayed on for 4 days without peeling even through multiple showers and soaking in the onsen. slightly painful to take off due to the stickiness but i have yet to try oil/ways to more easily peel it off
Thanks so much for your feedback. We're glad you love our SDH Mixtape. Please do make sure to use oil when removing the tape. This will make it much easier, less painful, and kinder on your skin. We recommend coconut oil as it's nice and nourishing for the skin, but any food oil will do.

I’ve never had any tape before that has held as well. I work outside and sweat/move a lot and anytime I’ve tried taping it lasts maybe a day and a half. This stuff stayed put through a camping trip and a week off work (two separate times, bind safely chat) and didn’t even slip. Was some irritation taking it off but not near as bad as some other brands I’ve used :)
