Product reviews of Idea Village Strap Perfect, Assorted Colors, 9 ct.
Review: Does what it says, but not perfect.
Beauty product: 3 Stars
I tried wearing it with a tank, but since it scooped a little in the back the straps (being held together as far as they could go by StrapPerfect) could be seen. It tends to slowly move upwards as you wear it throughout the day. The straps don't lay flat in StrapPerfect, they turn a little and create small bumps. And it doesn't really make your breasts seem larger (not that I mind) but works more as a pushup. It works okay with tanks (as long as it doesn't scoop in the back) and I hope to wear it with nice tops whenever I have the occasion. Though I have to say if you want it to work perfectly I'd recommend getting a bra in which you have many options with the straps instead. Review: Fantastic!

I bought these despite some of the reviews I read about them being uncomfortable and flimsy. However, I found these to be excellent! They do exactly what they say they will. I do recommend loosening your bra straps for added comfort, but if you want the "lift", then tighten your straps back up. I would definitely recommend these to friends :) Review: Fixes some problems, creates others!

First I was disappointed because strapperfect was not as easy to use in real life as in the ads. The first time I used it, it took about 10 minutes for me to get in on correctly and in a semi-comfortable position. However is has gotten much easier with more use. My bra straps were not hidden in tank tops, and it is uncomfortable after a couple hours of wear. When I use it it pulls the straps so far up my shoulders that it ends up peeking out of half of my shirt collars (depending on the style.) It does give some good lift but it slides up and down the straps so you have to adjust it during the day. The only reason I gave this 3 stars is the fact that it keeps my bra straps up where as they normally slip off my shoulders all day. This is VERY annoying when you have to deal with it every day and I love not having to push my straps back on my shoulders all day. If it weren't for the fact that it fixes this problem it would be a one-star product. I would not recommend buying this product unless you have a real problem keeping your straps up like me, and then only if you have patience to play with it and spend lots of time adjusting it! Review: For once an As Seen On TV product that actually works!
Beauty product: 5 Stars
I did not buy this from the commercial, I actually purchased it from a local pharmacy in town, and for only like $10. The set included 6 strap concealers and that special body sticky tape, which I have yet to use. The set of 6 come in 3 colors-nude, clear, and black.
Now first off, let me start by saying that it's not as quick and easy as it appears on TV. Maybe after practice it can get much quicker, but for me, the first time around took a few minutes to get it right. Anyway, the way it actually works is that you have to first loosen your bra straps a good deal so it has enough give when you pull them back. Which makes sense, it's just a bit of a pain to keep fixing the straps all the time.
After you are able to put the Strap Perfect on, you can adjust it up and down your back, to whatever height you want. Even with the bra straps loosened, it's still a little tight, but I didn't really care because it worked! It completely hid my straps, like it said, even with a tank top. And the sturdy plastic Strap Perfect didn't even stick out on my back-it was barely visible. And yes, you do get a decent lift from it.
I have yet to try it with various stypes of shirts, but with a plain tank top-it worked perfectly; not a strap in sight! Like I mentioned, it can get a tad uncomfortable, but it's nothing any girl can't deal with.
Even with the minor negatives, I am giving this 5 stars because the product works as advertised. I think it's an awesome idea and will come in great use for the summer months.
Review: Getting it on =D
Beauty product: 4 Stars
I haven't had the opportunity to wear it yet, but I did try them out when I got them because of all of the comments regarding the difficulty of getting them on. I didn't have a problem getting them on, certainly the first attempts are a learning experience. Key things to keep in mind: the bra has to have the ability to lengthen the straps considerably, most full support bras don't have the length to do this and also make sure that the bra is turned around (hook side to the front) when you attach the clip, set it low, then turn the bra around and put on. You can then push the clip up with the tip of your finger to move into position. They also feel pretty sturdy. Overall seems like a good product.
