Curious to know how body shapers for butt lift and tummy have worked out for others?
No doubt they are my friend and I wear them every time I get dressed.
Up until recently did not use them, But now I have crafted out of 2" foam a pair of hip pads and I also have a butt pad that goes on like underwear. Together they make me look like I have a butt and hips and the right pair of skinny jeans I look like I have curves for once in my life! Love it to death, only think with a gaff, hop pads and butt pads it all gets hot and puts pressure on my front and after 1hr or more it hurts. As they say.... you must pay a price for Beauty or at least to look like you are a real woman. Women 🙂
I always wear two types of padded shapewear. I wear one that has padded hips and is slightly longer than the padded butt shapewear. All were purchased from Amazon. I wear a non padded one piece shapewear over that and forms. I'm really not that big wasted to start with. I always start off with a pair of tight panties or a gaff. All my undergarment including my pantyhose are highly modified for ease of using the bathroom. I carefully cut the crotch out of everything and have never had a problem with any of them including the pantyhose fraying or running. A lot of times I wear thigh highs instead of pantyhose. I have no butt and my wife says it looks like someone stood up a frog LOL.
I'm pretty similar to Nicki @nickicd. Except unless I'm going to be just in leggings rather than a skirt or dress over, I don't bother with the gaff. By the time I've got two layers of shapewear over my panties I've already got a pretty reasonable tuck going on! I add a hook & eye waist shaper/tummy tamer over the top to hold the shapewear in place, it's deliberately a long one since I'm 6'0" and goes up to just under my bra. Add boobs to taste and off we go! I haven't cut anything out though (yet), I'm happy that it's easy enough to use the bathroom and find that rolling the bottom of the waist shaper up to get at the rest of the shapewear even holds my skirt or dress nicely out of the way 🙂
I've not done anything for the backside, but I did try a Spanx item for my midsection. My midsection paused, then asked me, "Are you ferreals, girl? Please, this can't hold us," and I went right back to steel boned corsets.
Now, I'm not young or slender and have mumbledymumble decades working against me, certainly YMMV. 🙂
