When it comes to being a female, there are things that are NOT so fun. Having a monthly period is definitely on my top of things I don’t like.
But wearing uncomfortable bras would probably be #2nd on my list!
I have been wearing bras for over 20 years and have went through my fair share of bras that were a waste of money. I prefer to wear underwire bras for the support, but I really do HATE them. If I buy a cheap underwire bra, my chances that the wire coming out only a week later is pretty darn good. I will usually buy the higher quality and more expensive bras that have good support so I don’t have to get mad when I have to throw the bra away a week later when the wire pops out.
This past couple weeks I have been wearing the Genie Bra that you might have seen advertised on TV before. This is a bra that has NO wires and is definitely more comfortable than the current bras I have. This is a bra that I definitely prefer to wear around the house. This is also a bra that I enjoy exercising in.
This isn’t a bra that I would want to wear on a hot date though. When I put the Genie bra on and showed my husband, he made a comment that it looked liked my boobs looked a little smaller. I just laughed!
I also received 3 pairs of the Slim and Tone Leggings by Genie. These are those stretchy type leggings that have been made to help hold you in!
I received a pair of the brown, gray and brown leggings to try. For me I would only wear these in the house or under other pants to make me look slimmer. They are a little snug when you put them on, but I think that is how they work to make you look skinnier. When I put them on and went into the living room, my son gave me a funny look. I don’t normally wear leggings, so I guess he thought they looked funny on me.
Slim & Tone Leggings combine the style of a traditional legging with the compression and slim-wear control of a body shaper. The fabric is seamless, designed to conceal cellulite, and provides 5 zone comfort of invisible support over problem spots. The waist can be worn high or low and provides extra tummy support.
I like both of these Genie products!
For those looking for a comfortable bra, I suggest trying a Genie Bra too! You can find Genie Bra on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/OfficialGenieBra

Pam says
I need both of these! I hate uncomfortable bras.

I also reviewed these bras and I really liked them. I am a smaller size so I didn’t see a big difference in my “look” when wearing. But I was also sent a larger size than I asked for so maybe they didn’t smoosh me as much?? 🙂

Sounds promising! I mostly wear underwire bras due to the support, but I don’t like wearing them.
Lorie Shewbridge says
The bras don’t provide enough support for my DD’s, but I definitely want to try those leggings. They look like they would be really supportive and comfortable at the same time.
Thanks for letting us know they are available – I didn’t know they made these. =)
Andrea says
The bra looks like it would be very comfy. I’m not sure if I would like the leggings because I’m not a fan of tight pants. 🙂
Courtney says
Oh man I need these! 🙂

Compression hose are good for venous blood return. 🙂 I could use some to improve my leg circulation.
