Okay, so I was skeptical about these at first—shapewear can be either a miracle or a medieval torture device. But these shorts? Actually kinda great.

The fabric is thinner than I expected (in a good way!) and doesn’t turn me into a sweaty mess. Pro tip: if you like that *snatched* feeling, size down. If you prefer breathing room, stick to your usual size—it’s firm but not soul-crushingly tight.

Biggest win? NO ROLLING. The silicone band and stay bones actually work. I wore these under a bodycon dress for hours, and they stayed put like loyal little soldiers. Also, the butt lift is subtle but effective—no flat pancake situation here.

Only gripe? They’re not *quite* as compressive as high-end brands (looking at you, Spanx). But for the price? Absolute steal. Ordered two pairs for less than one ‘fancy’ pair, and zero regrets.

PS: Fellow curvy girls (I’m 5’6”, 220lbs)—the 3X fit perfectly without sausage-casing vibes. *chef’s kiss*
