So, I'm an "As Seen on TV addict". Even if I haven't actually seen the commercial, I still stop by every store's section that has this stuff. Sometimes you win, sometimes you squish.

Waist Cincher? At Walgreens?

Appears harmless. I've had my share of waist cinchers.

The first level is just for basic back support and doesn't do much cinching.
The outer layer provides a whole other level of smooshing

This was not fun or comfortable to wear. I didn't attempt to put clothes over it, as it would've made me appear more bulky, not less.

Might be good for back support or special occasions, but I won't be attempting it for work or laundry any time soon.

$20 at Walgreen's, CVS, or here:
