These simple pointers will help you to decide what pieces of shapewear are for you. Whether you are looking to tone your body, reduce cellulite or support your midsection before you give birth, everything you need to know is contained within these 5 points below.
1.) Find the right fit for you.
Contrary to popular belief, most women in the US wear the wrong cup size and underwear size. Like any clothing garment, shapewear must be the correct size in order to look good and make you feel good too. Wearing the wrong size underwear and shapewear can mean the difference between a snug, comfortable fit and an irritable afternoon of readjusting and fidgeting. To ensure you have chosen the correct size bra, body slimming suit or micro-massaging suit, measure your waist and hips by yourself or get a friend to help. All lingerie retailers and department stores can translate these measurements into shapewear that fits correctly. You can then get the best out of your underwear garments and look a million dollars in no time.
2.) Choose a suitable colour.
Shapewear's main focus is function rather than fashion, which is why the shapewear clothing range comes in fewer colours than conventional lingerie. The main three colours you can buy are white, black and beige. For body suits, beige is the only colour available, which is suitable for most skin tones. If you wish to wear a slimming shapewear garment for a special occasion such as a wedding, there are many white garments to choose from which will sit under your gown and not look out of the ordinary. White wedding gowns do best with white, or use black for dark-skinned brides.

When it comes to buying shapewear there is often one factor which gets overlooked: the level of control which your garment can offer. Shapewear commonly comes in light, medium or firm control levels, which vary in effect. Shapewear designed with light control allows for smoothing of the body with no shaping. Medium control shapewear adds toning without rearranging, whilst firm control garments flatten body areas and can take centimetres of your waistline, giving the best results from the three options. Buy only choose the level that you need, since too much control can feel restrictive.
4.) Go seamless.
A common problem that many women face when wearing a new dress is the embarrassing visible panty line. One way to get around this is to choose seamless shapewear like the slimming body suit or the micro-massaging suit. Seamless garments like these cover larger areas of the body and require no straps, whilst still offering extra cup or waist support, depending on your choice of shapewear. Make sure to bring the dress you will be wearing or find one similar to the store to make sure none of the support is showing.
5.) The secret ingredient is Breast-Rx.
Simple rule: Women do not have to rely on shapewear alone. Even though many garments in the shapewear range are highly effective in toning, firming and ultimately slimming, micro-massaging suits have an added bonus. You can also enhance your breasts by taking Breast-Rx. Whereas other cream treatments for saggy skin rub off on certain clothing materials, Breast-Rx is an all natural herbal solution, for breast enhancement.
