Spanx - are they worth it?!

[Eclairwaldorf]

As it says really, am after something to smooth all my lumps and bumps round the tummy area. Is it worth investing in a pair of Spanx, or would you recommend something else. Also, these aren't for daily use but for those occasions when you really need help!

TIA

Yes! Well worth it.

Definitely. If you're between sizes they'll smooth you down and take you down to the lower size.

Can I ask where you got yours from? have been looking on the debenhams site, an they have quite a few on there?

Spanx do the job, but are really thick (hence doing the job I suppose) and a bit, well, sweaty. I've a pair from figleaves which were about a third of the price, and are so much more comfortable. Maybe not quite as flattening, but I can wear them all day without thinking about them near constantly or dreading going to the toilet...

Yes they are unbeatable IMO, and I have tried plenty of others!

They are fantastic. I got mine from figleaves too. I ordered loads of different ones to try when DD (PFB) arrived, all of the others went back.

Totally worth it, nothing else comes close.

Yes very good, I got mine from the Next Directory.

See I don't know if I got the wrong size but mine sort of lifted all my flab up into a big round pregnant belly and I found I looked better without them. I did follow size guidance but they did me no good at all.

Marks actually do a really good range, unlike the regular M&S ones they're quite thin but still supportive and not too hot. Try them first because they're much cheaper!
