The Envy Push Up swimsuit has a very low water absorbency. The pads in the Envy Push Up swimsuit are made of a water resistant material that does not absorb a lot of water. This allows the Envy Push Up bikini tops to retain their extraordinary fit even when wet. The top can be immersed in water for hour after hour and will only absorb about a tablespoon of water in each cup, where other push up bikini tops will retain up to a cup of water in each cup. Envy Push Up tops are made for active beachgoers and do not sag when wet even after hours of splashing in the surf or swimming pool.
