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.
