Okay, so I finally tried this shapewear after seeing mixed reviews everywhere. Here's my real talk review after wearing it for a week!
First off - the fabric is actually super comfy! The 85% nylon/15% spandex blend feels lightweight and breathable. I wore it all day under work clothes without feeling suffocated, which is rare for shapewear.
The butt lift effect? LEGIT. The circle opening design really does give your booty a nice rounded lift. Wore it under skinny jeans and got compliments on my 'new' curves lol.
BUT - major sizing issue alert! I usually wear medium but had to size up to large. Even then, the waist part doesn't come up high enough, leaving this awkward midriff bulge situation. Had to pair it with high-waisted bottoms to hide this.
Pro tip: If you're between sizes or carry weight in your midsection, definitely size up twice. The crotch area also cuts off weirdly low, creating an unflattering pouch effect.
Final verdict? Great for butt enhancement but mediocre for waist control. Works best under flowy dresses or high-waisted outfits where the waistband can be hidden. Would repurchase just for the booty boost but keep looking for better tummy control options.
