The summer is now well and truly upon us, which is bad news if you happen to have boobs.

Thankfully, freezable bra inserts are now a thing, and they're the secret weapon that you didn't know you needed this summer if you happen to suffer from the dreaded boob sweat.

The inserts are basically like the chicken fillets that enhance your assets without going under the knife, and they come with 100% cotton covers which make them machine washable and re-usable.

Manufactured by Polar Products, the inserts will freeze solid at 14c, after which, they can be inserted into your bra.

If you are based in the UK, which is currently experiencing a heatwave, it's worth noting that the inserts can only be purchased from the US, and therefore, they might not arrive in time to see you through this current hot spell.

The product description for the inserts reads: "Cool58® cooling packs freeze solid at a moderate and comfortable temperature of 58° Fahrenheit, so they can be activated in a freezer, refrigerator, or even a cooler of ice water.

"These reusable packs deliver comfortable cooling for up to 1 hour. (Please note: cooling times are estimates and will vary depending on climate, body metabolism and activity.) Each cover will hold one (1) 2.75" x 4.25" Cool58® cooling pack."

However, if you need a product like this immediately, fret not, as there are alternatives available on Amazon such as the washable and reusable gel pads that mold to the shape of your breasts for $8.15 (£5.96).

If you've got larger breasts, another great alternative are the Lansinoh Therapearl inserts that cost £8.44 and come with a large surface area and soft washable covers.

But if it's the Polar Product version that you want, they are available in two sizes, and the standard ABC size will cost you $37.11.

However, if you have breasts that are a size D or larger, you will need a double set of cool packs which cost twice as much.

One reviewer of the Polar Product inserts wrote on the website: "I used the bra coolers the first day that I got them. Best purchase I have made. I would recommend to any female."
