I've ordered binders online. I got one that was even too small for my size and it still didn't hide my breasts very well. I've tried sportsbras, and binders from several different companies and none seem to work. My boobs aren't even that big, I'm a 34C. They help a little bit, they don't look as big I guess, but it's still very hard to hide. I was wondering if there was any tips to help with this or a specific brand that works better than others?

Have you ordered from underworks before? I bought an underworks binder the other week and it works like a charm. I'm a 10F and it flattens quite well. Check out my thread asking about binders and there's a picture comparison there :)

Underworks and GC2B are really the only companies I would recommend. I'd also chat with their customer service people and take measurements of your entire chest to make sure you're getting the right size.

GC2B are the best binders IMO. I found Underworks to have scratchy material; didn't bind as well, made my ribs ache after a few hours of use and lost it's elasticity quickly. While GC2B are the opposite. Like Max said it's important to measure your chest correctly. I made a size mistake but GC2B have friendly customer service and it was easy to swap for a different size. Plus bigger chested guys recommend them; you can find pics online.
I'm a B cup btw.

I like my Underworks binder. It does a remarkably good job given that I have an H cup. I don't find it scratchy but my husband doesn't like the feel of it so I think that is just a matter of individual sensitivity.
I want to try a GC2B binder but will wait until I have more $.

I vote for Underworks as well, but I haven't tried a GC2B.
I doubled layered the 997 and 918/swim binders from Underworks and they got me pretty flat. Size wise I was about a 34/36 B I think the last time I checked and ordered them both in a large as I have a somewhat larger build. the main reason I double layered was because I had trouble with the 997 rolling up at the bottom, but alone the 997 worked pretty good.
Material wise, I have sensitive skin so it did bug me for a bit (I wore band aids periodically until I became more used the material). I had the same problem when I didn't wear my binder also because I became used to binding material so much. So I think my skin is just weird. After a few weeks I wasn't bothered at all.
Good luck.
