Hi everyone.. I got pear shaped body.. heavy thighs n thin waist line.. whenevr I waer any top that ends to.my waistline, my thighs gets really noticeable.. one of my friend suggested me to use 'CORSET'.
Though I have heard about it and have seen on t.v but I dnt know if it really does work to tone the area..
has anyone ever tried it? n if yes that which brand?

Hi Angell,I use to wear corsets when I was younger and indeed it made my waist smaller but only because I was consistent with wearing it but it doesn't tone your stomach.Till this day my waist is smaller but I don't condone others to try this since it may not work for others or could not be healthy for some.

I don't know, Angell, but if you have a small torso, a corset would only make it smaller and your thighs would appear bigger. Or are you refer in to a very specific product that covers that particular region?

Plus they are really uncomfortable!

I love corsets, I wear them for work or if I'm performing on stage. Most corsets you find are more of a novelty, if you want a true waist training corset it will have to be steal boned and will set you back at least $300, not to mention you have to wear it all day every day for it to work. If you still want to give it a try I would suggest getting a more affordable plastic boned one from Frederick's of Hollywood and wear it for a few hours/days/weeks, whatever you can handle. If you still want to wear them you could graduate to steel boned (they are more uncomfortable but last a long time and keep the shape) Waisted Couture has some great everyday corsets. But like Alma said, it's not going to tone anything, it's just going to give you a different shape.

I don't know why that is being called a corset; corsets are specific to the torso, not legs. That is a shaper, also known as Spanx. They are available in a variety of styles and "strengths" (firmness of control). I've used them before with no problems.
I don't recommend wearing them every day, as the compression can lead to circulatory issues.

Emily is right, I would suggest something easier but I'm afraid you won't like it: working out. I've been looking at your pictures and I think you are gorgeous, young and fresh. I come from a country where women will go through extremely uncomfortable procedures to get a shape that can be obtained in different more healthy ways. I feel very strongly about it. How about saving some bucks and just go power walking 20 minutes a day? It's for free, you'll work those thighs out, your skin will look stunning, and you'll be able to move freely. 😘

You absolutely can use it. Just don't use it every day. :)
