My underwire bra leaves a brown "line" under my boobs. It's been there since I started wearing bras, and I can't figure out how to get it off. It doesn't really look like dirt, and it won't just wash off. I've tried scrubbing it and everything. I am in the right size bra (according to Victoria Secret) and I've tried many different brands. Does anyone have any idea? I'm really self concious about it.

Try avoiding underwires for a few months. I know they're good if your breasts are small and the fat spread over a wide area, but how else are you ever going to see if something can be done about losing that dark marking?

That brown mark is probably a bruise – which means that your bra does not fit correctly. FYI – your bra should be so comfortable that you easily for get that you’re wearing it and should never, ever bruise your skin.
A few suggestions…
-Try soft cup bras (bras without wires) if you’re a petite to “average” cup size a soft cup should offer ample support (especially of they have support features like inner slings).
-Try a bra with a hidden channel (the underwire is sorta padded) like Maidenform’s Dream Bra - its super comfortable
-Get measured at a department store or any store that sells multiple brands…maybe you just haven’t found the perfect bra for your body at Victoria’s Secret!
Hope this helps!

Best thing go to a professional bra-fitter to get the right size and style bra. The few extra dollars are worth it.
