Swimsuit without Padded Cups

I'm a size 18 and looking to buy a new swimming costume. The problem with most of the ones that I've got, is that they have padded cups (not sure why as like most women this size, I don't need extra in this area). When I go swimming, the pads act like sponges, so then when I'm sitting around the pool, my nipples get sore from being wet.

Has anyone found any large size swimwear that doesn't have this? I had one from Marks years ago but the wires came out on my last holiday, so had to sadly bin it.

I have one from Simply B. It's a brand called miss Mary of Sweden or something like that. Was quite expensive but worth it I think.

I got two lovely swimsuits from next last year in an 18. The cups had removable pads which was ideal for me too.

When I was a 16 I still had small boobs and needed support as well as padding! I hated buying swimwear as I felt every range I came across were for the larger lady with a big bust which I didn’t have!

Some of the Landsend ones don’t - it is clear if you read the descriptions. I have small breasts and hate the cups because they are always the wrong shape and size, and also because they take ages to dry.
