The market offers a variety of shapewear and body control garments designed with different materials, colors and innovative functionalities. This variety has a price, but it responds to the modeling and styling needs that have been analyzed and classified into women and men.

The Colombian brand Co’Coon, world leader and recognized for its research and development of girdles, shapewear and control, using state-of-the-art technology, provides you with some recommendations to buy correctly and obtain your girdle with surprising results.

There are two basic variables to take into account when buying a girdle:

1. The material

2. The area of ​​the body to correct

1. The Material: Check the label to see the material they are made from, because each shaper has different elongation and compression characteristics.

– Comfort above all: If this is the first time you wear a girdle, it is recommended to start with one of the Seamless half compression line, made with a unique blend of Lycra and nylon microfiber, for maximum softness and comfort.

– Defines the abdomen: If you need to eliminate localized fat in the abdomen, we recommend using a girdle with thermal benefits, which has a latex band in the abdominal area, and internally lined with cotton to absorb excess sweat. This benefit can be obtained in four different lines: Light, Thermoslim Seamless, Powertech and Extreme.

– Strong control with maximum comfort: If you want a high compression garment but want it soft to the touch and easy to use, then you really need to use a Powertech line garment. This line provides a unique mesh fabric plus Rubberflex latex action that provides great shape with reasonable compression.

– Maximum Control: If you like to feel the pressure of a strong control that outlines and reduces from 1 to 3 sizes instantly, normally, then your best alternative is the shapers made with powernet. This strong short stretch mesh fabric allows the skin to breathe, making it ideal for post-surgical occasions. These shapers also have long lasting qualities with posture correcting features. You can find them in the Powernet, Power-Med and Extreme lines.

– Comfortable with benefits for the skin: If you are always looking for products with extra benefits, then the Skin Care Line is the best option. These girdles shape and refine your figure with comfort and softness, in addition the fabric is impregnated with nano-capsules such as Seaweed, Vitamin E, Oats and Milk and Caffeine to provide the skin with benefits such as hydration, toning, nutrition, elasticity and fat reduction located. Co’Coon also has the capsules in a spray form to recharge the stylers and continue these benefits for as long as you have and use the styler.

– No More Cellulite: Cellulite reduction without strenuous exercises and a traditional diet is now possible using shapewear and control clothing with biocrystal technology. A great advantage is that the biocrystals, or crystallized minerals, adhere to the garment and are always present, providing benefits throughout the life of the girdle. And the best thing is that they work!

Due to each woman’s variations in contour and body shape, not to mention the specific effect desired, Co’Coon designs various shapewear alternatives as described here. In total, the girdles can be classified into three types of intensities: low control for those who only need to enhance your figure, medium control to reduce flaccidity, and high control to slim down inches from your body considerably.

2. The area of ​​the body to be corrected: Knowing the desired level of compression, the next step is to decide on the correct design of the girdle. In general, women should focus on the areas of the body that they don’t like and want to hide, contour, or reduce while looking in a mirror. With this in mind, Co’Coon recommends:

– To give the torso a better shape, girdles with medium/high coverage on the back should be used, they may or may not cover the chest but they should compress the waist and abdomen. Body shapers or traditional ones are the best to wear. They are usually designed as an underbust girdle shirt and come with or without straps (strapless). Some are designed as high-rise panties and corset-like belts. The biggest advantage is the bodies. They are for external use and depending on the design they work as a blouse or top. The bodies are easy to match with your current wardrobe to portray a complete fashion ensemble.

– For the lower body shapers are designed as panties, shorts, capris and pants to trim the waist, compress the tummy, reduce the size of the hips, shape the thighs and refine the overall shape of the legs.

– If you need to reshape the contour of your body, you can use full body girdles (long or short), which reduce the size of the waist, while slimming the abdomen, lower and middle back, hips and legs. These types of girdles usually have a high level of compression, and their use is recommended after surgery or postpartum. They include butt lifting benefits and just wearing them can reduce one to three sizes.

– To comfortably refine the silhouette, shapewear dresses are a great option, they are available in both presentations: strapless and with straps, they lift the chest, shape the thigh, mid and lower abdomen, reduce the size of the waist, back and sides, while enhancing naturally the hips.

In addition to the benefits already mentioned, today’s body shapers also have the property of correcting posture, providing an elegant optical appearance, while displaying a captivating and attractive youthful look. With the right dress and shoes you can even look taller. For permanent benefits we recommend daily use of these garments.
