Customer review: "I have to say that this is life-changing shapewear. It is exactly what is needed when using pants with short shirts. I just love it!"

As one of the most highly rated pairs of leggings on Amazon, we couldn't help but include these IUGA Yoga Pants in our list. Not only do they come with handy side pockets and a hidden concealed pocket in the waistband, but the flattering seams and sculpting material make for a great pair of shapewear leggings that'll see you through your gym sessions to the every day.

Customer review: "Really soft, good thick material to cover all the lumps and bumps. They do not budge, unbelievable staying put power. The only downside for me is the waist height, probably doesn't help I'm 5'11" but I would have liked even 1 more inch higher on the waist. But, I will purchase again, they're unbelievably comfortable."

These M&S high-waisted leggings are made with patented Magicwear™ material and come in either black or navy. These are perfect if you're looking for a more affordable dupe of SKIMS because the "stretch fabric pulls you in while clever stitching lifts your bottom for a sculpted silhouette". Yay to pert bums. The thick waistband also holds your waist.

Customer review: "It’s a thick fabric that holds you in but still allows your skin to breathe. I like the fact that there are different length options because my daughter is tall and struggles to find leggings the right length."

Another piece of shapewear from Amazon, these JOYSPELS leggings are designed to make sure you look as snatched as possible at the gym (who knows, you could meet your future partner whilst doing a pull-up?) For example, as well as the tried and tested tummy control waist, these leggings are designed with a Y line. This makes your legs look longer and allows for more flexible movements.

Customer review: "I bought these for a hiking holiday after they were recommended to me. Used them once so far and they suited my needs just right. I’m a very curvy girl and my thighs did not rub in these at all (6-hour hike) they also stayed in place. I found it a little tight on my stomach when I first put them on - but it didn’t last and it gave me a nice shape across all my lumps and bumps which just made me feel better and more comfortable about myself especially when I’m hiking with others.

"The material is very nice, it’s also thick which kept the heat in for me. The material also feels nice against my skin too. I’ve got quite a long leg and would have liked an extra inch or two at the bottom - but as you can see in the pic it goes right down to my ankle and once I had my thick socks and boots on you can’t see it anyways. I’m a size 18 and got these at an XXL which fits me nicely with a high waist (which I like) I’ll be ordering more of these for my trip!"

Customer review: "Best leggings ever, comfortable and can wear with everything. Also great tummy control."

Made with plenty of stretch, these Extra Strong Compression Leggings from TLC shouldn't be so comfortable. But, according to reviews, they're comfy enough to wear while you're lounging on the couch, so they're a winner in our eyes. They offer plenty of support, with a powerful doubled inner mesh waistband that supports your back, legs and tummy all day. The ultimate tummy-control shapewear.

Customer review: "The best quality leggings I have ever come across. They slim down my thighs and tummy whilst staying comfortable. The thick material is perfect for the winter."

If you're looking for corset-level suction, look no further than these super affordable RIOJOY Corset Gym Leggings. With three levels of cinching available on your waist, you can choose how tight you would like your leggings to be. Available in a variety of different colours and even in shorts, too.

Customer review: "I love the corset leggings so much I ordered a second pair and another for my friend within 24hrs of purchasing the 1st pair! They are super comfortable, feel like a second skin, the waistband is very sturdy, the leggings themselves are a little bit thinner than expected.. but not see-through thankfully. I'm a typical hourglass shape size 10/12 and bought the size small, my friend is a size 14/16 and bought size large. If your looking for extra support I'd say go a size smaller, they stretch well and are double stitched so well made, you won't be disappointed they give you a wonderful shape. Very pleased with purchase. Highly recommend 👌"
