Victoria’s Secret bras are known to add a little extra va-va-voom to your bustline, and this popular push-up bra is no different. Not only does it make cups appear two sizes bigger, but I loved how smooth and supportive it was. The plunging neckline allows me to wear a variety of different silhouettes with it, and the straps and band are fully adjustable to find a comfortable fit. There are also a ton of different styles to choose from, ranging from classic nudes for every day to lacy designs for special occasions. Nearly 2,000 other shoppers are also fans of this bra's bust-boosting abilities: “Love love this bra!! Never stop making these. They give me the confidence I need without getting breast implants."

Lau recommends this push-up bra for plus sizes because “it lifts the bust and creates top swell with thin lightweight padding.” The bra itself provides medium coverage and has a thick comfort band under the bust and wide wings that create a smooth base for clothing. Shoppers say the microfiber fabric is soft against their skin and the mesh details help provide ventilation. “If you’re a heavy-chest[ed] female looking for support this is it. It lifts you to the heavens. It smooths your back and underarms and you can wear [it] for 18 hours and it doesn’t hurt,” raved one five-star reviewer. Bonus: It goes up to band size 54 and cup size K, so it should be easy to find the right fit.

“I never knew a push-up bra could be so comfortable,” said our Commerce Editor Janelle Randazza. “The claspless, pull-up design means that it fits by way of an elasticized band, rather than a clasp. Clasps always dig in for me and they tend to constrict, so before this bra, I was anti-push-up. Now my push-up bras are the most comfortable bras I own.” While the claspless design prevents any discomfort while wearing the bra, Randazza said it can feel weird and awkward pulling it on over your head or butt, but the comfort and support make it well worth it. In fact, she loves it so much she bought it in five different colors!

Fashion Forms is the original “water bra” brand that uses inserts filled with a mixture of body oil and water instead of foam padding to give your bust a boost. Melissa Keippel, senior apparel buyer at Zappos, is a fan of the bra because “it provides a more dramatic but still natural push and lift.” One shopper said it makes a “big difference” before adding, “My daughter is flat-chested. She was feeling frustrated. A friend told me about the bra. My daughter has worn this out. Smiles when puts her tops on now. This was a great buy!” Just note that because it is filled with liquid it’s not safe for the washing machine and must be hand-washed and line-dried.

“Yes, I'm also surprised that my favorite push-up bra is a strapless style — but it's that good,” said our Commerce Manager, Julia Webb. “This bra gives me a great shape under all of my clothes, plus it literally never slips down or needs to be readjusted. The padding isn't overly obvious either, but it leaves me feeling extra supported.” The bra uses the brand’s smart-zone cup technology, which helps it conform to your unique bust shape, and it has a reinforced band that prevents it from shifting as you move. If you are looking for a little extra support, the bra does come with convertible straps, but Webb noted that “removable straps, in general, never look quite right or are that comfortable, so I tossed them pretty much immediately.”

Keippel is also a fan of the Natori Minimal Convertible Push-Up because it has a J-hook at the back that allows it to be easily changed into a racerback for added versatility. She also added that since it has “less of an extreme push, it’s great for everyday wear.” The underwire bra provides all-day support without being uncomfortable and it has light foam pads to give the girls some lift. Shoppers say the bra fits great and “it's not too extreme of a push-up,” which they like.

If you want an effective push-up bra that gives more oomph than others, over 15,000 Amazon shoppers recommend this FallSweet option. It first went viral on TikTok back in 2020 when user @inmyseams posted a video saying it was one of her top five bras on Amazon. “When I worked at Victoria’s Secret, I had girls come in every single day and ask me, ‘What bra is going to hold my girls together and push them up?’ For the price and result of this bra, I think every girl needs to have one of these in their wardrobe. The padding is in the shape of a hand, which I feel helps lift and scoop and bring the girls together,” she said. She then posted a side-by-side comparison showing amazing results. The bra is not only adjustable in the straps and back of the band, but it also has a lace-up front that lets you adjust how much of a boost you want your cleavage to have.

Lau loves this Soma bra “because it’s a versatile push-up bra that gives a pin-up boost with a no-slip back and multiway strap options.” The strapless bra comes with removable straps that let you wear it in five different ways (traditional, strapless, halter, crisscross back and one shoulder) and it has elastic along inner cups and sides to keep it in place and prevent it from sliding down. One happy customer said they “love the support and lift” before adding, “Does not sag or creep down. This bra does not give you the boob hump over the top either! Very versatile with the straps too.”

This sleek bra from Skims is specially designed to give you the lift you’re craving without a ton of extra padding. It may look like your traditional bra, but this innovative style has lightweight push-up foam pads built in to give your bust a boost. The push-up is not only buttery soft but also offers stretch for added comfort and sizing flexibility. Said one happy shopper: “It’s the most inexpensive boob job you can purchase. I mean it. I liked that this bra didn’t hike my boobs up to my neck but still gave them a noticeable ‘oomph.’ Also, it’s crazy to me how it managed to be comfortable and made my boobs feel like they were being lifted by clouds. What in the shapewear sorcery?”

Keippel says this Wacoal bra “is perfect for smaller sizes and gives a nice lift.” Designed for small busts, this light push-up bra has smooth cups for a natural shape and a pretty lace band that adds a feminine touch. The padding is removable, so you can decide when you want to have an extra boost or not, and it has adjustable straps and a hook and eye closure at the back. “Finally a bra that will fit a smaller person and do all the right things with a chest that we need to be done — lift, shape, provide support and comfort. This bra fits so well and is so comfortable and great that I now own three,” raved one reviewer.

Along with mesh-lined cups that boast vertical and darted seams for lift, this push-up bra also features a comfortable underwire, adjuster straps that can form a crisscross pattern and a pretty scalloped lace detailing for a feminine touch. “The bra lifts and separates really well, and I like how thick the lacy material is. It gives extra coverage, but it is still comfy and supportive at the same time,” said bra fit expert Kristin Polin, who chose this bra for our Best Support Bra roundup. The bra ranges in band size from 30 to 40 and cup size from A to H, and shoppers of all sizes rave about how much they love it. One reviewer who described themselves as curvy wrote, “I love this new style from the Bare collection. I found the bra to be true to size and supportive. The cup style offers natural cleavage without any extra padding and the lace is soft and sexy. Highly recommend!”

This sleek bra from Calvin Klein is specially designed to give you lift without a ton of extra padding, which is one of the many reasons it made our Best Strapless Bra guide. Made with innovative memory foam cups that mold to your bust, the bra creates a personalized lift and natural-looking boost. Reviewers say this push-up is not only super soft but that it stays put. “I ordered this to wear while vacationing in Arizona. I’m very impressed! Even in the extreme heat, while sweating, it stayed in place! It’s very comfortable once you remove all the tags in the back,” wrote one. “I’ve owned so many strapless bras. Ones that are twice the price and aren’t nearly as good. This one is legit!”
