Anyone else struggling to find shapewear that actually fits their body? 🙋♀️ We all want to be able to slide on that form-fitting dress that gets heads turning without making you feel self-conscious or uncomfortable.
But there's nothing worse than shapewear that's constantly rolling down, or shapewear that squeezes too tight and makes you feel lumpy. Instead of looking and feeling my best, I'm constantly readjusting my shapewear to try and smooth out my belly bulge. 🤦
There's an abundance of shapewear options out there, but how do you decide which one's for you? I decided to give Underoutfit, SPANX, and SKIMS a try, and there's a clear winner in my book!
If you want to look the most snatched...Underoutfit

From the moment I first slipped into Underoutfit's Smoothing at Waist Brief, I was absolutely blown away. Underoutfit knows how to tuck you in at all the right places, without making you feel suffocated. Goodbye belly bulge!
I tried SKIMS’ Seamless Sculpt Mid Waist Brief and SPANX's EcoCare Seamless Shaping Brief, but they just couldn't match Underoutfit's structure and stability. They also kept rolling down, and so I was super self-conscious that my figure looked pinched and lumpy. 🙅♀️
With Underoutfit, I can slip into my favorite dress with full confidence that my shapewear will hold me in. They also offer a 180-day return policy so if your first order isn't fitting perfectly, you can return them for a new size that's right for you!
If you're looking for comfort, support, and breathability…Underoutfit
When it comes to comfort, Underoutfit's Smoothing at Waist Brief takes the crown. The fabric feels pillowy soft, and it's so stretchy it might as well be a second skin. The best part? It’s supportive without being so tight that it will leave red marks on your skin. 🙌
Not only did it shape well, but its breathable fabric was a total win for me, and the moisture-wicking capabilities have me feeling fresh even on the warmest days.
SPANX and SKIMS, on the other hand, were a lot stiffer than Underoutfit and after a few hours, I began to feel the pinch, especially around the waistband. The material they used also felt a bit heavy and didn't allow my skin to breathe as much as I'd hoped. While looking great in shapewear is crucial, staying fresh and cool is equally important. For something that I want to wear all day and night, Underoutfit has my back.
If you're seeking shade diversity...SKIMS
Inclusivity in fashion is something I always champion. It's important for every individual to find options that reflect and celebrate their skin tone. In this aspect, SKIMS leads the pack with an impressive array of 9 skin tone colors plus black. Their commitment to representing diverse skin tones is clear and highly commendable.
However, when it comes to colorful options beyond skin tones, Underoutfit pulls ahead. While they offer 3 shades dedicated to skin tones, they boast a vibrant palette of 11 additional colors, bringing fun and flair to the shapewear scene. SPANX, on the other hand, keeps it more conservative with a total of 7 colors, 3 of which cater to skin tones.
If you want flexibility in returns…Underoutfit
Flexibility is key, especially when you're trying to find the shapewear size that perfectly matches your body. Underoutfit gets it. They offer an incredibly generous 180-day return policy. Yes, you read that right - you have half a year to put it to the test. Wash it, wear it, twirl around in it, and if you're not absolutely thrilled, you can return or exchange it without breaking a sweat. But trust me, you won’t even want to! Now, SKIMS gives you 90 days, which is still pretty generous, while SPANX only gives you 30. Neither one gives quite as much breathing room as Underoutfit.
And the overall winner is…Underoutfit
For me, Underoutfit's Smoothing at Waist Brief comes out on top. It's comfortable, breathable, sustainable, and it’s affordable enough that I can buy 2 or 3 to have on hand. I’ve found my perfect match!
