๐Ÿ’— Sometimes trying something different can make all the difference.

We recently received some lovely feedback from a customer who tried the BOOST breast prosthesis after coming in for a long-overdue fitting.

More than four weeks later, she was still loving the shape, comfort and lightweight feel and was very happy she decided to try something new.

Every woman is different, which is why a personalised fitting can be so valuable. It gives you the opportunity to explore different styles, shapes and options to find what feels most comfortable and natural for you.

The BOOST breast prosthesis range is available exclusively through Colleenโ€™s Lingerie & Swimwear and our sister store, Bra Fitting Wisdom.

If you are due for a new breast prosthesis or would simply like to explore whether another option may suit you better, visit us in store for personalised fitting support or shop online.

Lighter, cooler comfort for the warmer months โ˜€๏ธ

If youโ€™re looking for a breast form option that feels lighter, more breathable and comfortable for everyday wear, the BOOST breast form range is well worth exploring.

Designed with comfort in mind, BOOST forms are lightweight, suitable for everyday wear and can also be worn for swimming, making them a great option as we head into the warmer weather.

They are also eligible for the Medicare breast prosthesis reimbursement, helping make them a more accessible choice for many women.

One happy customer described them as โ€œair conditioned boobs!โ€ โ€“ and honestly, that says a lot about just how comfortable they can feel.

Not all sports bras provide the support your body actually needs.

Whether you are walking, training, heading to the gym or simply looking for comfortable everyday support, wearing the right sports bra can make a real difference to comfort, movement and confidence.

Many women are unknowingly wearing sports bras that are the wrong size, do not provide enough support or are not suited to their body shape and activity level.

We have put together a helpful blog covering what you need to know about sports bras, including support, fit and some of the common mistakes women make when choosing one.

After breast surgery, finding the right bra can make a meaningful difference to your comfort, support and confidence.

Whether youโ€™re recovering from a mastectomy, lumpectomy or breast reconstruction, or managing lymphoedema, your needs may change throughout the healing process. Our team provides compassionate, personalised fittings to help you explore post-surgery options suited to your body, lifestyle and stage of recovery.

The Colleenโ€™s post-surgery range includes soft, front-opening, seamless and compression styles designed to support different needs following surgery. Your surgeon or treating team should always guide when and what type of bra is appropriate for you.

Chemotherapy can sometimes leave fingernails and toenails feeling dry, fragile, uncomfortable or more vulnerable to damage.

Polybalmยฎ Nail Balm is designed to moisturise and support the nail beds during chemotherapy. Its blend of natural waxes and oils helps protect against drying, splitting and cracking while nourishing the skin around the nails.

Each pack contains two tubesโ€”one for the hands and one for the feetโ€”to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Simply massage a small amount around the fingernails and toenails two to three times daily, following the product directions.

Polybalm is available in store at Colleenโ€™s and online:
