Here is the latest and greatest example of such a "share"...
Just wanted to shout out a big "thank-you" for your many products and easy shipping to Canada! Due to a medical emergency, I lost 50% of my body weight and felt embarrassed at the gym when trying to regain muscle. Spandex looks horrible on a flat behind and even my trainer jokingly called me "cliff".I am amazed at how natural and sexy the padded panties look even under work out gear! They gave me the confidence I needed to get back in shape and now I wear them daily because you can't help but love the look of a great behind. I know I'm probably not your target market but I have spread the news to so many ladies in physical rehab and everyone loves them!Of course, my sisters and friends are loving the boost too! I even gave them away as much treasured Christmas gifts. Thanks again, this product has really 'boosted,' my health and fitness!~Lynn in Canada

Top 5 Best Padded Panties
1. Retro Lace-Waist Padded Panty: A midrise Padded Panty that controls the lower abdomen and prevents muffin tops with a pretty lacy midsection. The concave-shaped pads cup the cheeks and fit securely in each pad pocket to prevent shifting. Pad pockets are hidden to prevent visible pad lines. The booty pads are removable for convenient washing.
3. Foxy Fanny® Original Silicone Padded Panty: The Foxy Fanny's clear silicone "jiggly" butt pads provide a subtle and moderate rounding affect. The realistic silicone (also known as gel pads) fit securely in each pad pocket and are removable for convenient wash and wear. This traditional brief-style control panty features Spandex and Nylon mesh fabric that controls and tones the waist and hips. Removable silicone booty pads perkify the backside. We've introduced a lace, lace foam, mid-thigh and teardrop version of the Foxy Fanny, but this "original" Foxy Fanny style is a staple for thousands of women who want to feel firm, smooth and curvy all at the same time...and for a great price!
4. The Can-Can Padded Panty: Can you have a better booty? Can you defy gravity? Can you leave any room with confidence? Yes you CAN-CAN! The Can-Can has been one of our best selling padded panty styles year over year since 2009. And in 2015 we upgraded our Can-Can with lighter-weight, sumptuously soft fabric and a delicate leg elastic to create the most skin-hugging, comfortable padded panty ever made! The high-quality construction and incredible fabric will make you look and feel like you spent $10K on a surgical butt lift!
5. The Hipee Brief Padded Panty: If you've always wanted Marilyn Monroe curves but you were born with a Taylor Swift figure, now you too can be "Hipee"! Bubbles Bodywear's' hip and butt padded panty mid-thigh brief creates realistic, noticeable curves on both the rear-end and the hips, turning any boyish figure into a voluptuous hourglass femme-fatale knock-out! Features soft, realistic foam padding with an optional upgrade of realistic silicone padding...yet another exclusive Bubbles Bodywear feature!
So when we list the top 5 best padded panties on our website, it's the same as saying that they are also the top 5 padded panties in the world!

New Padded Panty Style from Bubbles Bodywear!
Brand Spankin' New Padded Panty design now available at www.LoveMyBubbles.com. And we're introducing this new panty/pad set just in time for your New Year celebration (or order soon and get it before December 25th even)!
Our brand-new exclusive BEHIND THE SEAMS Highwaist Padded Panty slims the waist all the way up to the bra line to control, smooth and slim the entire torso. And of course the most important feature of all Bubbles' padded panties is the booty padding! Our regular customers will notice that this is the long-awaited higher-rise version of our already popular Behind the Seams "Original" Midwaist Padded Panty.
The Behind The Seams styles are a little different than most Bubbles' padded panties. These padded panties are designed to be paired with removable Oval foam pads, while many of our padded shapewear styles that feature removable booty pads are designed with round padding.
What's the difference you ask? On most people, Oval Booty Pads give a dramatic boost - creating what some call a "shelf"! This effect results in a higher boost that makes the booty look as if it starts higher-up on the cheek and closer to the lower back.
But as with all of our panty/pad sets (pocket panties with removable padding), these pocket panties are customizable. Customers can choose to wear any of our round booty pads in the pad pockets instead of the oval pads that come with the panty. The round booty pads will give a different-looking boost (usually more subtle) on most body types.
When purchasing online, you will notice that you can add thicker Oval booty pads (for a bigger boost) to your order. You can also add our Traditional Silicone Butt Pads to your purchase. The silicone material has a real feel and a round shape. The advantage to silicone is that it will feel like an extension of your own body. And the round shape gives a different kind of boost....a bit more subtle than the Oval pads. Simply add the Silicone option to your order for the Behind The Seams to get both the Oval and the round Silicone pads in your order. With both the Oval and round pads styles, you'll have 2 different looks (and feels) in one great padded panty set!
What a great reason to treat yourself to a brand new booty boost for your holiday celebrations!

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder
Society bombards American women with images of the "perfect" female figure. We grow up believing that beauty comes in limited form. But history shows us that beauty is subjective, cultural and indeed in the eye of the beholder.
The common phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" first originated in Greece, where some of the world's most significant sculptures heralding the human body were first created and publicly celebrated. Greek artists from the early Minoan to the late Hellenistic period produced paintings and sculptures exhibiting their appreciation for what they saw as the splendor of the human body (from mythical, athletic, mundane to defeated form).
And as the Italian Renaissance began and flourished, beauty was explored by artists in depth as it came in not only physical form, but in the human conditions of happiness, despair, pain, salvation, sexuality and death. As such, Italians mastered the art of finding beauty in all things worldly.
Not only in Italy, but as the Renaissance spread throughout all of Europe, appreciation for naturalism, although sometimes controversial, was evident the exhibition of, and endowments supporting, the creative arts in all forms. Beauty was often depicted in forms not seen today in modern society.
I believe that because European artists throughout the centuries have been extolling the virtues of the inherent beauty in nature, and have been celebrated for doing so, there is a more open minded view of beauty in the European culture today. In my experience, travels and relationships, I have found that European girls and women do not have the confidence and self-esteem issues found in American society.
But for most of us growing up in America, to ignore culture norms is almost impossible. However, if our girls can understand the origin of the concept of beauty, perhaps it could help them better interpret our culture of social media imagery replete with impossible or unhealthy Photoshopped figures along with air-brushed cover girls. And for women who struggle with self-esteem issues that stem from high school teasing, understanding history's fluctuations of cultural attitudes and sensibilities could help us be more accepting of the beauty that our individuality brings to this world.
It may seem strange for the owner of a shapewear company to write an article encouraging self-realization of beauty in our natural form. But the impetus for starting Bubbles Bodywear was the issue of self-esteem and my experience as a target of high school teasing. So I want nothing more than to help people feel better about themselves, because when we feel confident we have more courage to face the challenges of daily life.
I know that there are many (mostly men) who do not agree with women wearing padded panties, or accentuating curves artificially with bra padding or booty pads. To those people, I would say "walk a mile in my shoes" and then tell me again that you don't approve.
