Shopping Around: Genius Undies

It annoys me how many incredible solutions and conveniences we miss out on here in Malaysia. I've always known that the key to great nude under garments is to colour match it to your skintone. But until MySkins, as far as I know, no one's done it! And of course, it's based in the US. And of COURSE you can't buy it here and even if you could the shipping costs might be prohibitive and sending the stuff back isn't really an option.


But the site IS revolutionary and I hope lingerie makers take notice. Sure we love polka dots, lace and cute animals on our smalls, but when push comes to shove and you end up in a fountain what you REALLY want is a damned good invisible nude bra. So having a great basic range designed to be invisible with 20 skintones is an awesome idea!

Oh and speaking of problem solving undies, how about the Camelflage? We don't have that here either. *throws a lingerie-inspired tantrum*

Aaahhhhhhh! What every woman needs and so rarely can find (in this country)!

And the Camelflage website says it so well - goodness knows all girls want a bit of visual privacy (or as I like to call it somewhat more crudely, freedom from the hazards of VPL and cameltoe).

*covets madly

Visual Privacy!!!!! Love it!!
...and good idea too.

I remember the fountain post! You handled that wish such poise and I totally agree that a light gold is perfect. I too had a hard tme finding a 'nude' bra until I found that gold and even a brown works better for me. the MySkins ones are genius!!

ksuan & Dusk: If we petition them hard enough think they'll ship over?

Hey Kahani,

Just wanted to let you know your post (and a handy Memorial Day sale) inspired me to buy a bra-and-panty set in #17 (Almond)! Thanks for the tip =) Hope it works out.
