review: braza swim shapers

Its towards the end of the summer – how is your bathing suit holding up? Mine is doing great, except for one little problem. You know those little removable foamy pad things they put inside the top? That always move around, wrinkle and are generally useless? Mine are a mess. The rest of my favorite, super adorable swimsuit is in perfect shape, but these pads look awful. I can't wear the suit without them for, um, coverage reasons. But they never lay right and are generally annoying.

So when I was contacted by Braza to try out their Swim Shapers, I was totally game. The email they sent me went something like this:
"Your suit just isn’t holding up as well
as it did at the beginning of the summer. The foam pads in the top have become
misshapen and out of place… Swim Shapers are available in either covered foam or silicon and in a variety of sizes and shapes to fit different swimsuit styles and to provide different cleavage-bearing options. Swim Shapers are the perfect alternative to
the cheap foam pads that come in swimsuits that usually get crumbled up or fall
out."

I responded with a "Yes! How did you know I had that problem?" but I was thinking, "Did they see me at the pool at the Y trying to inconspicuously adjust those stupid foam pads in my bathing suit yesterday?"

Well, let me tell you, these things are amazing. My bathing suit not only looks like new, but it fits a lot better. I'm not, shall we say, as blessed as some women are in the voluptuousness, so a little extra padding is much appreciated. The triangle swim shaper fit perfectly into my halter tankini (as I tossed the yucky old foam pads that came with it with glee), they did not move or bunch up and were very comfy. Plus, they provided more coverage than the foam pads did, so I felt so much more comfortable.

And the best part – Swim Shapers are under $10 on Amazon and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. That's a lot cheaper than a new swimsuit. I highly recommend these to anyone! They saved my favorite swimsuit!

disclosure: i received a pack of swim shapers to facilitate my review. i was not compensated financially for this post. as always, all opinions are mine.
