00:02 Hey guys, and welcome back to my channel.
00:15 So I posted these on my Instagram story a little bit ago,
00:18 and you guys went crazy,
00:20 and we're super excited to see these.
00:21 But today we are reviewing
00:22 the AliExpress Bombshell Legging Dupes.
00:25 And I just wanted to disclose,
00:26 I did receive these from an AliExpress seller.
00:29 These are from the Miss Who store,
00:30 but I was not paid to say anything,
00:32 and these are all my honest opinions.
00:33 And again, I'm not necessarily telling you
00:35 to buy these products.
00:36 I'm just giving you the details on how they fit me
00:38 and how they worked for me.
00:39 All right, so let's get into the details.
00:41 These are only 15.99, which is super cheap,
00:44 because the bombshell leggings are $86.
00:46 Like, that's like Lululemon prices.
00:49 I didn't even know they were that expensive
00:51 because I've never really even looked
00:52 into buying their stuff.
00:53 But like, what?
00:55 Like, $86?
00:56 I mean, like, of course, like, you know,
00:58 brands have different levels of quality and everything.
01:00 But that's really expensive.
01:02 In terms of the fabric, the top fabric here
01:04 reminds me a lot of the Gymshark Ombre Seamless fabric,
01:08 except a little thicker.
01:09 It's super plush, and it has like,
01:11 a little marled texture to it.
01:12 It's also super stretchy, it has a lot of give.
01:15 It's also compressive, but I didn't feel like
01:17 it squished my button anyway.
01:18 It just felt very, like, hugging.
01:20 The sock material is slightly more slick,
01:23 but it's not that shiny material at all.
01:25 The sock material definitely felt more compressive
01:27 than the top material, which I like,
01:29 'cause you know, you give your booty a little more freedom,
01:31 and then you can have a little more compression on the legs.
01:33 And the top waistband is just like,
01:35 a ribbed version of this sock material.
01:38 The fabric isn't brushed or slick.
01:39 If you're familiar with the Gymshark Ombre Seamless fabric,
01:43 this is very, very similar.
01:44 So on the label here, it says that these are
01:46 a poly-nylon spandex blend,
01:48 but the actual bombshell material is made of
01:50 a polyester spandex blend for the top,
01:53 and micro-polyester spandex for the socks.
01:57 I don't know what the difference is, to be honest.
01:59 The socks look like a slick material
02:01 on the actual bombshell ones.
02:03 They look like somewhat shiny,
02:04 and these are not at all shiny.
02:06 So the materials are definitely different.
02:08 I don't think that's a bad thing.
02:08 I think that the AliExpress sellers
02:10 actually did a really good job of these leggings.
02:12 They're actually very high quality.
02:13 And I also wanna say I've never had the bombshell leggings,
02:16 so I did a lot of research on the photos
02:19 and watched some videos.
02:20 I'm gonna do my best to compare these
02:22 to what I know about the bombshell leggings.
02:23 So these come in black, gray, forest green, pink, and yellow,
02:28 and some details compared to bombshell.
02:30 So for the waistband, on that bombshell website
02:32 for these similar looking sock leggings with the top band,
02:36 their top band looked like a thick elastic,
02:39 which usually feels kind of cheap to me.
02:42 I don't really like those.
02:43 So actually these ones,
02:44 they're just made of a ribbed seamless material,
02:46 and they blend seamlessly into the marl color.
02:49 And because this waistband is seamless,
02:51 it doesn't cut into my sides at all,
02:53 so it's very muffin top friendly as well.
02:55 I would compare this waistband a lot to, again,
02:57 like a Gymshark Ombre Seamless,
02:59 except definitely a little tighter,
03:01 and I haven't had any issues with this stretching out.
03:03 I feel like they have more elasticity to them.
03:05 On the website, the waistband went up
03:06 to the model's belly button, just a little bit above,
03:09 and it did the same for me.
03:10 These hit just right above the belly button.
03:12 One thing I do wanna note about the waistband
03:14 is there is a little bit of unevenness.
03:16 You can kind of tell there's just a little bit
03:18 of unevenness in the way the seams are made.
03:22 It's really not noticeable once it's on.
03:24 I almost didn't notice it myself,
03:26 but it is on both of the colors,
03:27 so that is a slight defect they have in the leggings,
03:30 but again, it's really not very noticeable.
03:32 There are also some differences with the seams.
03:34 The bombshell ones actually have a front seam
03:36 and two side seams, and probably a back seam as well.
03:39 I didn't see it on the photo, but I will insert a picture.
03:42 But these ones are actually seamless,
03:44 which I prefer seamless leggings.
03:46 So you have no seam on the side, well, on either side.
03:49 And then on the front, you kind of have
03:51 this little mini line thing.
03:53 It's like a little raised line, but it's not a seam,
03:56 so it doesn't cause any camel toe.
03:57 If you've had Gymshark Ombre Seamless,
03:59 I'm really comparing these
04:00 to Gymshark Ombre Seamless leggings,
04:01 but they just have a lot of similarities.
04:03 If you've had those leggings,
04:04 this is a very similar little front line that they have,
04:07 but it's not very noticeable, and it's just kind of raised.
04:10 It's not like an actual sewn thing.
04:12 So for the sock height, it looked like it hit the model
04:15 like upper mid thigh, like there were a few inches above it,
04:18 and it hit me about the same place.
04:19 I had a few inches above my thigh,
04:21 but it did cover past my mid thigh, I would say.
04:25 So looking very closely at the sock material
04:28 and the sock detailing of the actual bombshell ones,
04:31 it looks like they are slick
04:32 with little ribbed dots all along them.
04:35 So it was kind of like this shiny raised dot texture.
04:39 These are not at all like that.
04:40 There's no ribbing, and they're also not slick.
04:43 It's just a compressive, plush material.
04:46 So not slick and no bumps.
04:48 There's also no marl or any color differences
04:50 on the sock part.
04:51 It's just all one solid color.
04:53 Also both have three stripes on the leg and a gusset crotch.
04:57 As for sizing, I do have a small in both of these,
05:00 and I would recommend sizing up.
05:01 I was able to get these on,
05:03 and I was able to wear them to the gym,
05:04 but they just felt very tight on my legs.
05:06 And you know how you sometimes feel like
05:08 you have sausage legs,
05:09 like they're just kind of stuck in there?
05:11 It was a little bit uncomfortable for me.
05:13 I also had a little crotch tightness,
05:15 and you never want any seams to pull or anything.
05:19 So I'm normally small,
05:20 but I would have definitely preferred a medium
05:22 in these leggings.
05:23 And I don't normally size up,
05:24 so that's definitely saying a lot.
05:26 I also have my measurements down below.
05:28 Just know that I would have preferred a medium in these.
05:31 I have the small currently, and they're just a bit small.
05:34 They also come in sizes small through large,
05:36 so it's not the best size range ever,
05:38 but I mean, it's something.
05:39 So as for sweat proofness,
05:41 they're probably not the most sweat proof,
05:43 because I mean, whenever you have a solid color,
05:46 you can, you know, it'll show some sweat.
05:49 The top part is marled,
05:50 so that could maybe help a little bit,
05:51 but I wouldn't say you're totally free from sweat proofness.
05:54 The top color, this top color is darker,
05:58 so if you sweat a lot on the top,
06:01 that would probably hide it pretty well,
06:02 but that sweat might show.
06:04 Also, no camel toe at all in these leggings,
06:06 even though they're a bit small for me.
06:08 There's no front seam, and they're also very thick,
06:10 so I didn't have any problem with that at all.
06:13 As for cellulite, I feel like these are actually
06:14 pretty thick and compressing,
06:16 so I feel like that would help in some respects,
06:18 but again, I feel like I don't know any leggings
06:21 that don't have a print on them
06:23 that are totally cellulite proof,
06:25 so there might be a little risk,
06:26 but you do have that marled texture, which helps here,
06:29 and they're overall very compressive and thick and plush.
06:32 I'd say cellulite friendly, but not cellulite proof.
06:35 Also, for being squat proof,
06:36 I mean, these were very tight on me,
06:38 and these green ones were 10 out of 10, totally squat proof.
06:42 I wore them to the gym.
06:43 I'll insert clips somewhere in this video.
06:46 The pinks, they were just a little bit sheer.
06:48 I mean, you kind of get that with lighter colors,
06:50 so I guess that makes sense,
06:52 which means the yellow ones
06:53 probably wouldn't be totally squat proof either,
06:55 but I'll give these a seven out of 10 squat proof
06:57 because they really weren't that bad.
06:59 I probably actually would wear them on a leg day still,
07:01 just because they just feel like leg day leggings.
07:03 They're very thick, compressive, high-waisted,
07:06 and I feel like with the right pair of underwear,
07:09 you wouldn't see too much,
07:10 but just know that the darker colors,
07:12 totally squat proof, lighter colors,
07:14 probably a tiny bit sheer, but nothing crazy.
07:18 All right, so thank you guys so much for watching.
07:20 If you have any more questions,
07:22 please go ahead and leave them down below.
07:23 My hand's sick today,
07:24 so I hope I'm not forgetting anything
07:26 'cause I don't feel great,
07:28 but thank you guys so much for watching,
07:29 and I'll see you next time.
07:31 Bye.
