Let me preface this post by saying I absolutely hate going bra shopping and never fully find a bra that fits me properly. Most of the times when I do go bra shopping, they fit me in an under-wire bra which seems comfortable in the store, but then I bring it home only to be in some serious pain after wearing the bra for a few weeks. I end up getting poked and prodded by the under-wire, but at that point, it is too late to return the bra. That is why I was excited to receive a set of Genie Bras to try on and see how I like them. I had little expectations because as noted above, I have complaints with mostly every bra, but I can honestly say the Genie Bras I received were simply amazing!
Genie Bra is the bra all women wish for in terms of comfort, style, and fashion. When I first received the Genie Bra, I noticed that it came with the bra and pads, if you want extra lift and coverage. I took my Genie Bra out and I decided to put the pads in, because I like the extra lift. It was so simple to insert the cup into the slit on the side of the cup section of the Genie Bra. I then flatten the cup out to provide me comfort, and went on to wear the bra to see how I liked it for the day.
The Genie Bra truly provides the ultimate in comfort and support. There is absolutely no under-wire and is seamless. If you have never tried an under-wire bra, most times they feel flimsy once you have them on. I am a 34C and need a good amount of support in my bra. However with the Genie Bra, I was able to experience no under-wires, yet have full support- how amazing is that!
It allows for form fitting seamless construction and has no wires or hooks. It also had a wide comfort lift band which means no more rolling. It contoured completely to fit my breast area and was SO COMFORTABLE. It seemed like a sports bra fit but with the ultimate in protection and support. I can see myself working out this bra and even sleeping in it. That is how AMAZING it is!
The Genie Bra is made to accommodate many sizes from small to 2X. On the size chart, I was a medium, but I was sent a large and it fit perfectly. I am not sure if I would size up if I was ordering since I don’t have the medium to compare it to, but the large did indeed fit me perfectly. There was no slouching of the bra or annoying straps coming down. It is also has a high back, so you don’t have to worry about your bra showing. Since it is high though, it is not meant to be that sexy bra. However, I am 34 and a mom of two kids- I am not all about showing off my top area (if you know what I mean).
I was thinking that this bra would also be a wonderful bra to breastfeed in. It is fully stretchable, so you could just roll up your bra, feed the baby, and roll back the bra. It would make breastfeeding much easier than a traditional hook bra where you have to take it off to feed the baby. I know I am keeping these bras for many years to come and highly suggest them for comfort! I might also mention that they are machine washable and will never loose shape. The unique fabric comforts to any cup size and never looses its shape! They will not shrink when you wash them, and will stay exactly like the time you originally took the Genie Bra out of the box.
As a dentist, mom, and a blogger, I need a good bra to last me through my long days. I don’t have time to deal with an annoying bra and be uncomfortable. That is why the Genie Bra is perfect for me! I feel so supported and don’t have to deal with the annoying lines and creases that other bras do! The wide band design lifts and separates without dealing with extra hardware on other bras.

I also received a few pairs of the Slim and Tone Leggings. I am a huge legging person and love to wear them with big sweaters. The Slim and Tone Leggings are tight fitting leggings that are made to show off your figure! I know that my legs have some chunk to them but with the Slim and Tone Leggings, my legs look fantastic- they look like I have worked them out everyday! I take a size small in them but they do run to 3X, so they encompass any size. They provide comfortable compression and 360 degrees of slimming technology! It helps eliminate the extra bulge from the love handles and provides me with a nice, clean, and smooth look. If I have to toot my own horn (which I rarely do), I would say these leggings make my legs look phenomenal. Be sure to check out the Slim and Tone Leggings today!

That really does sound comfy! Unfortunately, I have nothing that needs lifting or wiring, lol
Michele says
I know what you mean about those darn wires sticking into you!! I need a supportive bra and have a heck of a time finding one–maybe I will try one of these
Dawn Lopez says
Oh cool! Love hearing about comfy bras! They are SO hard to come by! Cool leggings too! That sweater is perfect to wear with them, love it!

I’ve heard so many good things about the Genie bra! What a great idea to use while breastfeeding. I just might have to give it a try!
You look so pretty…love your sweater/dress! Have a happy Superbowl day! 🙂

I also hate bra shopping. I used to always order mine from VS because I didn’t want to go in the store and try them on! Now, I go once a year to stock up and end up paying $70 apiece for bras that are actually comfortable, which is outrageous. I’m definitely checking this company out!
CinnyBBS says
Oh, that sounds like several great products to me! I could use new leggings!
Jenn @ Organic-Mama.ca says
I’ve always wondered about the Genie Bra – especially since I see the commercials all the time! Glad to see you like it!
Tesa @ 2 Wired 2 Tired says
Sounds like a great bra and I’m glad to hear you like it. Those leggings are cute too!
Kelsey Apley says
Sounds comfy, and I think I might have to try it out!!
Heather Garcia says
I am so glad that you reviewed this bra. I have seen the commercials, but everything always looks better on tv LOL. I used to be a perky petite 34 B and I had the maxed out Victoria’s Secret gold card to prove it. But now that I am an almost 40 SAHM I am not as much of a oh my bras must be sexy and have panties that match. I am still nursing and am a 36 D but do not want to spend a lot of money on bras because I have no idea what my size my boobies are going to be when I am through nursing. I have seen these bras at Walgreens and have been tempted to buy one, but now that I have the recommendation from a friend, I am going to bu one 🙂

It looks very comfortable.

My mother bought these bras and thought she was going to love them. She bought a large size that should have fit her, but it was ridiculous. She gave them to my sister and me, figuring we’d wear them on weekends or something. My mother is like 15 bra sizes bigger than me or my sister and these larges barely fit us. Sadly, it wasn’t the size that was the issue for me. It was the smell. All 3 had a very foul burned rubber smell. I hung them on the line for a week to see if it would go away with the fresh air. It didn’t. I tried to hand wash them and soaking them. That didn’t work either. I had to throw them away.
I thought it was a fluke. Recently however, I found this exact same smell in another product I bought and I had to throw them away too. Most people must not notice because they would never be able to sell these if everyone thought they smelled bad!
Melissa says
I am sorry you had this experience. I have noticed no smell whatsoever!!!
Jenny says
oooo i must look into these. i hate bra shopping too. can never find one w/out a friggin coat hanger in it… makes me sad.
Jennifer Clay says
Man, I am so jealous! I have been dying to get a Genie Bra!! I have heard that they are so comfy. I don’t really go bra shopping often. I have one or two bras that I wear. I am needing a new one, I may just get a Genie Bra.
Liz Ticona says
This looks so very comfy! I need this, specially now that i have a 4 mos baby boy, comfort is key! but i need the support
candice says
Nothing like a comfy bra!
