I usually wear Wacoal  brand minimizers, but heard such great things about this brand, I thought I'd try it.  It minimizes well, maybe even a bit better than the Wacoal.  But, my main complaint about this bra is the stretchy material it is made of.  The cups are very stretchy, which makes for a lot of "bounce".  I don't like that.  Also, I ordered a size up form my usual size since some reviews had said that it runs small.  Even with a size up, there is a bit of "spillover" at the top, as the cups don't cover as high up as the Wacoal I was used to.  It's a nice bra though, so I guess I'll keep it.  Just not sure I'll purchase another.  Think I'll stick with what works for me.
