Good day to you all. I wanted to talk about a subject that is near and dear to my heart, Spanx.
I LOVE SPANX!!!!! I have been looking for a great undergarment that would hold in all of my lumps, bumps, rolls and humps for a long time. I am pleased and excited to say that I have found it in Spanx. I have tried girdles, corsets and other shape wear to no avail, then I found Spanx. I heard about them in passing but since I had such a bad experience with other products I never purchased them.
So, what made me change my mind? Well, I was watching Access Hollywood one day and they did a report on "How the Stars look so good on the red carpet." When I saw that Eva Longoria and Taraji P Henderson both wore Spanx under their gowns I thought "I have to give these a try." I went online (to the official Spanx website) and made my order on a Monday and had my Spanx in hand on Thursday. I immediately went upstairs and tried them on. Since this was my first purchase I ordered the lower body shaper that covers below the breast line and goes down to the thighs.
Once I got it on I thought it was not working because I did not feel any different. What I mean is I could breath! I did not feel restricted or sucked in at all. I did not feel hot or uncomfortable so in my mind it wasn't working. I was used to feeling uncomfortable and squeezed in when I put on shape wear in the past. Although I did not feel different I went to my closet and put on a pair of jeans that were a little tight, to say the least. To my surprise the jeans slid on like silk. I did not have to jump, shimmy and shake to get them on they just slid right on up. I was FLOORED!!!! So then I put on a shirt and looked in the mirror and everything was smooth. No lumps, bumps, rolls or humps. It was amazing.
I could not wait to go somewhere just so I could put on my Spanx. I looked smaller and my clothes fit better but there was no discomfort at all. I wear my Spanx everywhere under everything and you cannot tell. There are no lines or ridges like you get with a girdle. There is no lump under your breast like you can get from other shape wear. The very best part for me is that the Spanx did not make me sweat. Spanx are made from a very breathable flowing fabric that holds in your rolls and does not create extra heat. i don't know how I lived with them.
I was so happy with the body shapers that I purchased 2 cami's and they did not disappoint. Spanx has every kind of shape wear that you can imagine and they even make pants, shirts and skirts that have shape wear inside. To me the cost is well worth it. The prices range from $32.00 up to the $100's, it just depends on what you want. In this moms opinion, every woman should own at least one pair of Spanx.
A blog created by a stay at home mom to give real life information on items we use everyday. My hope is that the information provided in my blog will help people make informed decisions on purchases for their home and family. I think having honest input from someone who actually uses the product on a daily basis, or has at least tried it a few times, is more valuable than the hype of any commercial.
