I’m a size 18 with 36G boobs and tried a Skims bodysuit – I feel a lot smoother, people say I look ‘amazing’
A WOMAN has survived the Skims ‘initiation’ test after discovering their bodysuit fitted after all.
This was despite her initial skepticism when the impossibly small item appeared fresh from its packaging.
Measuring in at size 18 and with 36G boobs, her disbelief was understandable.
Courtney (@courtneyswerld) is a young mom from Leicester, England.
Her body hasn’t snapped back to its former shape and size, so she was eager to try out the much-vaunted shapewear brand, Skims.
The company was co-founded by Kim Kardashian and has enjoyed huge popularity and viral trending.
But in her video, doubt was written all over Courtney’s face as she held up the sculpting body suit.
“Really Skims?” she said. “Does not look like it will fit.”
Nonetheless, she was eager to give it a go and trust the process: “Can’t wait to try it on.”
She wore a leopard-print satin-look midi-skirt and admitted to some practical underwear.
“I’m wearing big granny pants because I’ve had a baby,” she said in her post, “and you don’t go back to regular pants after you’ve had a baby.”
Courtney pointed out all the bumpy bits she hoped her Skims bodysuit might squeeze and hug: “This is before, my bum, my belly, my thighs,” she said.
Once her Skims item was on, she gave her appraisal to viewers.
“You probably can’t see much difference but I feel a lot smoother,” she cooed.
“It gives you a nice silhouette from the back but I just feel like, just here, midriff area, it just glides down.”
Her review got better: “But my waist, it’s a lot smaller, and just for reference I got the 2x and 3x.”
Viewers to her posts certainly could see the Skim effect.
“Massive difference,” said one, while another said: “It looks great.”
The final comment came from a follower who put their own uncertainty about the brand to one side and admitted they might have been wrong: “It actually looks amazing. I never expected to say that about a Skims product,” they said.
