Issue resolved
Combination of needing a bigger cup and style..
Thanks ladies
Original problem
I thought this bra was a great fit. But as I wear it I'm noticing that the underwire feels too short and digs into my under arm area. And then the regular issue I seem to have with the bra straps/cups cutting in to the armpit.
What do you guys think? Does this style work for me? Any suggestions?
during PMS week when I aggressively swoop and scoop I get quad boobing, it's only a tiny bit normally.

It does cut into you an itsy bitsy bit on it's own, but it isn't unbearable. But if that's the quadboob you get after scooping, then yes, you need to cup up on this.
What worries me more is the cut off tissue behind the straps in the armpit, you can see this clearly in the front shot. You should attempt to move this in the cup by scooping. I think quadboob would get even worse then.
I think the panache andorra would suit your shape and needs quite well - it is good for boobs with not too much projection, and it has forgiving stretch lace that is great for any time of the month and/or migrating. And it's supercomfortable

Yes I also second Andorra once again lol and you can probably even wear it in 30G :)

I thought the Andorra is a full cup, and full cups were bad fits if you are full on bottom?
-
I try to scoop that tissue into the bra. When I lift my arm it comes out. I adjust multiple times a Day.
I. Don't know if that means the bra is the wrong shape for me... Or its just mbt that neeeds to move, or both.

Hi. Andorra Full Cup is a fullcup. I have never heard full on bottom shouldn't wear fullcups?
Anyhow: Andorra isn't like just any other fullcup. It can even create cleavage a subtle cleavage :)
The reason your tissue sneaks out so easily is because the wires are so low. This would however be helped with the Posture Contour Bra Lacie and since I see you're about to order it you might as well wait with the Andorra. But Andorra should also be a good bra for you from all that I can see :) It's very forgiving, very soft and comfortable and does give a good shape :)

it's not a bad shape for you, I think you just might be inbetween sizes or need a better one.
If you are happy with the shape this bra gives you, you could try a size up. And yes, Andorra is not your ordinary halfcup :)

If you have fluctuations in your breast shape, find a size that you can leave a little room in the bra cups so you wont' have that problem. It is perfectly fine to leave room in the cups, but not be too small, when fitting bras, always think ahead.
As for the cutting, the pictures you have posted looks like you have migrated breast tissue in those areas, that's is why you feel the bra straps and cups dig into you. If you already bought the bra and have to live with it, try doing the swoop and scoop EVERYDAY so hopefully that tissue can go back to the cups. The discomfort is caused by the "fighting" of space by your tissue and the bra, you want the bra to win and the tissue to obediently go back into the cups. Only if the bra is designed to move that tissue though, but it doesn't hurt to try.
Thanks

I've been wearing too big bands and too small cups for 10 years. I know there is a lot of MBT to move. I scoop and swoop at least once a day, and massage the areas for a couple minutes during/after showers.
Every bra seems to cut in those areas. It's frustrating.
I longingly look at your bras. Trying to scrape some cash together. :) -
Speechless... That's a really flattering comment.. Thanks for all the interest.

Yes Posture contour bra is definitely also a good idea :)
