We believe beauty treatments can be a necessity instead of a luxury, and consider awards shows required viewing.

I tried Spanx a few months ago. I was not impressed by this product. It could be that I needed something a bit more substantial/firmer control (I'm 5'7", 174lbs) but even after I wrote the company with my displeasure, I didn't get anything more than a "try this style". After spending close to $40 the first time, I don't know why I'd spend another $40. BTW, I shop Couer for lingerie, so Mona is great!

I adore Spanx. I had gastric bypass surgery almost 2 years ago; I lost 100 pounds and have flesh hanging from my belly. Spanx is cheaper and more comfortable than a tummy tuck. I wear Spanx' footless pantyhose and their camisole (both purchased from QVC). Target sells a less expensive version of Spanx, made by the same company, called Assets by Sara Blakely (Spanx' founder).
