When scrolling endlessly on Instagram and Facebook, you can always find the biggest of influencers in the fashion game recommending cheaper alternatives of expensive brands - and SKIMS is one of them.
The solutions-orientated brand is founded by none other than Kim Kardashian but, its pricey options for shapewear range between £30 and £80.
Amazon has become a hub for alternative brands which offer great prices - and you can already find some incredible deals leading up to Black Friday (November 24).

I have found plenty of options for shapewear on Amazon here that work out considerably cheaper than SKIMS but still a hit for those looking for a bargain.

For instance, SHAPERX has an incredible 2,639 ratings with an average of four stars and it's half the price of this SKIMS alternative.
One reviewer wrote: "I'm size 16 on the bottom and a 12-14 on top. The medium is perfect, and is better quality than high price shapewear I have bought in the past. I recommend."
Another said: "It's great, it feels amazing, I'm so happy with this one."
You can pick up this shapewear with tummy control for £15.99, saving you 24% on the original price, and this offer is part of the Amazon Black Friday deals which kicked off last Friday (November 17).
There is also a great need for long-sleeve fitted tops from cheaper brands, and again, Amazon have some really highly-rated options. A SKIMS Long Sleeve T-Shirt goes for £54 - but, I have managed to spot something that looks similar at just £5.99.
We have also found that there are plenty of other brands out there which offer more affordable prices than SKIMS, with a perfect fitting Boux Avenue thong SKIMS alternative here for £22.40. Meanwhile, fast fashion favourite Pretty Little Thing has a very similar black thong bodysuit for just £15.
