If summer often rhymes with beach and swimming pool, and therefore with swimsuits, it can also be synonymous with complexes and frustration.
Indeed, the swimsuit can tend to reveal all the parts of the body that you strive to hide under your clothes the rest of the year.
But to take full advantage of the sun and your holidays, there is no need to go on a diet or plastic surgery.
You can turn to a shaping swimsuit that will erase your belly and refine your silhouette.
One-piece or two-piece sheathing swimsuits, the brands offer many trendy models.

Sculpting swimsuit: how does it work?
The sculpting swimsuit is a swimsuit that allows you to redraw the silhouette.
Indeed, the different materials used, especially in lining, have the ability to shape the body.
Thus, the belly is flattened, and the small bulges disappear.
The sculpting and flat stomach effect is very natural.
In addition, materials based on polyamide and elastane are very comfortable.
You remain free of your movements, without having the impression of being compressed in your swimsuit.
There are different types of sculpting swimsuits:
the sculpting one-piece swimsuit that can be fully lined or only at the level of the abdominal strap;
sculpting bikini bottoms that allow you to enjoy two-pieces without having to worry about a small belly;
the sculpting tankini which is a two-piece sculpting swimsuit whose top is in the form of a more or less tight tank top.
Shaping, modeling or sculpting swimsuit: what are the differences?
Depending on the brands and models of swimsuits, several terms can be used to describe a swimsuit that refines the silhouette.
The main ones are: sheathing, modeling or lifting and sculpting.
In practice, these terms all refer to the same concept, namely a swimsuit that acts on the curves thanks to the use of compressive materials.
What differentiates them is above all the intensity of the effect on the body.
Thus, a lifting or shaping swimsuit is a swimsuit that slightly redraws the curves.
It harmonizes the silhouette by smoothing the curves without compressing.
For its part, the sheathing swimsuit mainly has a flat stomach effect.
It can also smooth the hips.
Finally, the sculpting swimsuit has a more global effect.
It will maintain and lift the chest,
flatten the belly and erase all the bulges.
It is therefore the most slimming.
