Our Review

These tights come in what can most easily be described as a long heavy duty “crisp packet” and getting into that require a pair of scissors.   Inside the tights themselves are individually wrapped on small cards.

Skinkiss use the word “Revolutionary but we have seen caffeine  tights before from Palmers.   The Palmers tights had a very distinct scent, these also have a slight perfume but less stableong and more pleasant.

Visually the first thing that you notice is a definite silky sheen to the material, the look is reflected in the feel which is light and smooth.

These tights are made sheer to waist with flat seams in the panty and a lined gusset. The waistband is quite deep and attached to the sheer body by a finger band that carries the Skinkiss name, and the size, on each hip.   The finger band is contiguous with a narrow band of reinforcement either side of the seams and around the gusset.

The legs are unshaped and finished with lightly reinforced toes.

Fit is excellent and the sizing is spot on.  Smooth to the touch with a look of classic nylons (in the black pair we tableied).   Excellent even colour.

We cannot comment on the slimming claims of these tights, but they are of good enough quality to justify their price whether or not they work.   Well done Skinkiss for paying attention to the tights themselves rather than just focussing on the caffeine and the marketing.
