No chub rub, no problem. (Amazon)
We're heading into the lovely skirts-and-dresses season, though that often means something we don't love about this time of year: chub rub. Y'know, when your thighs rub together under your clothes, leading to sweaty and painful chafing. It's enough to make you want to put on a pair of jeans and call it a day. But there is a solution: Reamphy Slip Shorts are seamless, lightweight and made to wear under dresses and skirts to keep you comfy. And right now, a three-pack is on sale for $18.
These leggings are so comfy that this just might be the year you look forward to working out.
"I've tried a lot of eye creams," says Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini. "And, for my money, CeraVe makes the best drugstore depuffing/under-eye brightening treatment currently on the market. Not only does it feel good on your skin (absorbs quickly, no gross pilling), it's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. Olivia Wilde loves it, along with thousands of reviewers, who say it's like Botox in a cream. I'm not sure about that claim, but I do know this is a quality skin care staple at a price everyone can afford."
At over 40% off, it's within a dollar of its best price all year.
You can get these shorts in several neutral colors, including black, nude and white.
For just $18, snag three pairs of slip shorts to wear this sunny season in either all black or a pack of black, nude and white (other shades are available too). Spanx has only one pair priced at $28. Considering that many shoppers have compared Reamphy to Spanx (more on that later), that's one heckuva bargain.
There's no better way to prevent chub rub than to wear a pair of shorts under your favorite sundress or skirt. But you don't want any old pair — that bumpy profile isn't flattering on anyone. The solution? Slip shorts. They're sleek, often slimming, prevent chafing and ensure sweat isn't a visible part of your outfit.
Many slip shorts get negative reviews for riding up or rolling down, making all-day wear a total pain. These little wonders from Reamphy, however, are beloved by thousands of reviewers for a reason: They stay put, provide comfortable coverage for our most sensitive areas and, according to many wearers, even give a slight slimming effect without the suffocating compression of heavy-duty shapewear. They're 90% nylon and 10% spandex, ensuring a soft, lightweight feel — and they're seamless, so there's no worry about panty lines.
Nearly 9,000 Amazon shoppers have given Reamphy Slip Shorts a five-star rating, with many raving that they help prevent uncomfortable thigh friction without rolling up on the thighs or down at the belly.
"I have been looking for many years for nude shorties that are really comfortable, breathable, but also smoothing, high-waisted, stretchy and not too long to show under dresses, but also long enough to stop the chub rub without riding up," shared one relieved reviewer. "My Lord, I just found her after a lifelong search."
Another fan shared: I don’t know where these have been all my life! They are super comfortable, don’t ride up and stay cool all day. Say goodbye to chafing! Definitely on the sheer side, so I don’t recommend wearing [them] on their own. Perfect under a dress/skirt or pants."
Many wearers have compared them favorably to popular Spanx shapewear. "Like Spanx without the squeezing," one shopper described them. "They work perfectly for smoothing without compressing. [They're] comfortable and make a nice surface for a dress to flow over."
Many reviewers suggest getting a size higher than your usual. "I ordered up a size on the recommendation of an influencer and she was right. I usually wear an XL and bought the 2X. I would not have wanted them any tighter," noted one writer.
Another convert commented that they may not work as well with minis: "Bought these to wear under short dresses [and they're] very comfortable [but I] wish they were a little shorter in length for my purposes."
