“Wish Granted!”

Jaime Q.
11/20/17

This company is like a magical genie that grants you curves! I've always been a 5'4 petite girl with very large breasts. I felt like I didn't look "balanced". I have a booty, it's just not big enough to counterbalance my top heavy assets. I've ordered from this company on many occasions and they never fail to satisfy me. My most recent order is amazing! (Hip to butt padded boy shorts) It looks very natural and seamlessly curvy. I will be back for more granted wishes!

“Not a good fit”

Theresa C.
9/20/17

Had a weird fit. Waist band was really small for the size ordered and bottom corners of panty did not form lay flat to buttocks, returned to exchange item for another style. Also, paid for two day shipping and storm hit Florida where their distribution center was apparently located, so I didn't get my order on time as paid for and needed.

This product has left me extremely disappointed.
I bought it twice, hoping it would get better, but it never did.
The padding was visible no matter what I wore.
I couldn't be bothered to send it back for a refund, and it's taken me forever just to write a review.

Dear Y. R., We're sorry to receive your review. We do see that your orders were indeed from early 2021. But we also notice that you never contacted us about your orders, which would have allowed us to offer shopping advice or suggest an alternative panty style/size or different pads that may have been better suited to your needs. It's quite possible that a smaller pad may have been a simple remedy to the visibility issue you experienced as different panty styles, pad sizes, thickness and materials - and the outerwear worn with the garments/pads - will affect the final look of the shaper. Please know that we are always here to help our customers throughout the entire journey of buying, trying and wearing their Bubbles. ~Bubbles Bodywear

I haven't tried them on yet, have been traveling. Fast shipment, that was good. On the website there could have been more pictures on the product, particularly on a person so one can see how it looks on.

Quality and padding is perfect... problem is I ordered according to the size chart and the panty fits too low on the hips and cuts into the middle of each cheek giving the look of a very noticeable deep indentation which shows it's obvious padding. Too bad I tried them on and now can't return for a larger size

Dear Elaine, We apologize for any inconvenience. A pre-paid return label has been sent to you and we have also reached out by email with alternate style suggestions. The product you purchased has built-in padding and provides a boost across the backside, from hip to hip. However, this type of boost may not be the best form/fit for everyone. This is why we have so many options to choose from! We hope you will give us a chance to match you with a product that matches your needs better. Thank you! ~Bubbles Bodywear

I first purchase the Rio Padded Panty but didn't fully realize it only came to the hip & was not what I was looking for. I wanted more of a full panty. So I ordered the Can Can Padded Panty which is a full panty and it is working out fine. Looks very natural and subtle. Not over done. Very pleased.

I am going to return these silicone underware. Instead of my butt looking rounder with better shape, the silicone slide ins fall to the bottom of the underware and are SMALL so it looks like a growth in my butt. I even got a second opinion and she says it makes my butt look really wierd and can tell.

Hi,
The Large size is extremely small. Did not try them on as I could see they were way to small. I would like to exchange for a larger size. Quality looks good.

I ordered the boy short with the silicone pads as inserts and they fit my bottom beautifully however because the waist size is not considered with this company, they are not a perfect fit. I spoke with customer service and they said they do not take waist measurements into consideration. I love this piece so much I took it to get altered but the seamstress said that because of the way it's sewn, it can't be altered. Because of this issue, I can't wear it under thin/form fitting garments as the gap surely shows. I fold it over and it makes it just fine under jeans or heavier/flowy garments but this gap/extra material can never be worn under anything thin or form fitting because the extra material bulks out and looks weird. I thought about using a safety pin but I don't want to hurt myself plus that would probably show as well. This piece is definitely worth the purchase just be cautious about what you wear it under. Also the circumference imprint of the pad shows through thin/tight clothes so be mindful of that as well! This piece definitely works, it just does not work with everything!

Tip for consumers:
Get a wide variety of pieces because not every piece they sell will work well with all your clothing.

Fabulous customer service! I will continue ordering from this company as I love what I ordered. I had ordered something that didn't fit right and the company exchanged it to accomodate my concerns.

Their free return is not free. You have to pay $7.95 to get your money back. Don't buy from them.

Pay with Amex. Trust me. There are reasons to pay with that cc. Or PayPal.

Tip for consumers:
I wish I read their reviews.

Products used:
They said free refund. Not free. When you pay to return it it so not free. The quality is so bad I do note ant to exchange. Horribly made.

I am a slim girl who have always struggled with trying to increase my backside with pills and creams. Mybubbles did the trick in seconds. I look amazing in my clothes now.

I love all of my new padded panty products I purchased and they upgraded my shipping for free so I received them sooner than expected. I will always purchase from this company.

I have three separate undies. I ordered the silicon pads to use instead of the padding on the undies and I absolutely love them. They are not exaggerated.

Get the thinnest nipple cover - you will use them ALL THE TIME! I wouldn't live without them.
Under shear bras, braless, breast surgery that made nipples uneven(gone). Enjoy!

From the business

Bubbles® Bodywear is the world's pioneer in designing and manufacturing curve-enhancing shapewear and accessories, with a focus on padded underwear. Our exclusive shapewear designs and our ground-breaking booty-boosting body shapers are the creation of Karen Jones, our Founder and CEO. As a result of her own needs as a not-so-curvy girl, Karen has been designing curve-enhancing solutions for men and women since founding Bubbles® in 2003.

Business History

I know what it's like to be the "butt" of jokes and teasing... Growing up, I was late-bloomer - little, skinny with no curves. My nickname was Jones Bones and "BK" (Big Karen - that was sarcasm).

Almost every kid endures adolescent teasing, whether it's for being tall, short, small, big - you name it! The trick is to turn that negativity into something good; to become stronger and more resilient later in life. And that's what Bubbles is all about - giving people the tools to build self-confidence.

The "insecurity seed" planted by all that teasing made me quite uncomfortable with the way I looked, even as an adult. Then, in 2003 I had an idea for a product that would boost my behind to help fill-out my clothing. I experimented with my new invention with my favorite pair of pants (pants that had been sitting in my closet for years because they had become stretched out and saggy in the back).

Lo' and behold, my little invention worked! I received lots of compliments the first time I wore it. I donned my "Bands" whenever I wore the pants. Then I thought... other girls might need this too! After all, I was feeling dramatically transformed... the part of my body that made me so self-conscious had suddenly become my best asset.

Over the next few years we began to add to the Bubbles' collection. In particular, we saw a need to improve on the selection of padded underwear available for women (and men) who needed more than a just a little lift. In 2006 we started designing and building the line of padded panties, boyshorts and briefs that we offer today.

Read our customer feedback and you'll understand how and why Bubbles has grown, mainly from word-of-mouth. After all, when friends spread the word about their favorite products, you know just how great they are! We're proud to say that Bubbles Bodywear has become the One Stop Booty Shop! ® for thousands of women and men who want a boost to their backside (and their self-confidence).

Karen J.
Owner & Founder
Karen Jones, a Florida native who studied Studio Art at Florida State University, always had an interest in entrepreneurship. In 2003, after inventing a booty-lifting shapewear product for her own use, she realized that other people could benefit from her curve and confidence boosting invention... and Bubbles Bodywear was born, with Karen's first three patented shapewear designs.

With her background in Studio Art, and then professionally in Web Design, Karen launched her own website in 2004. But her early education in manufacturing and business came with much trial and error.

To provide some perspective, in 2004 e-commerce was burgeoning and fashion trends were just starting to ditch the heroin-chic look. Amazon was still known for books, J-Lo's curves were beginning to hit magazine covers and KimK was barely a blip on the social media radar. It was a very different world.

Over the years Bubbles has evolved from "Bubbles Butt Boosting Lingerie" to "Bodywear Bodywear" to encompass Customer's requests for a variety of shapewear products that boost, sculpt and lift.

Bubbles now offers 100 exclusive and specialty body shapers from both women and men, all designed by Karen herself.

"Focusing on the Customer - their wants, needs, complaints, suggestions and personal stories," says Karen "is what makes us who we are. And building a happy company team here at Bubbles has been an important focus for me too. Running a company makes you responsible, not only to your Customers, but also to your employees and their families. From our products to our working environment, I hope to engender confidence, happiness and security for anyone who wants to be a 'Bubbles Girl' (or boy)!"
