CdR Eterno Super Lucido Tights

And yes we are back in the Eterno Super Lucido after some time, but in this gorgeous grey instead. I have done the black before, and loved that oily goodness on the legs, so it will be nice to see it in a different colour that will work for all sorts of occasions as well as work.

The Review

From The Website: Cecilia de Rafael brings you the Eterno Super Lucido Ultra High Shine Tights. A similar design to the Eterno Sevilla tights but with extra, added shine. Designed without a waistband for a smooth, sleek finish and featuring the famous Sevilla, patented technology these tights are just about the shiniest we’ve ever seen! The oil look shine makes sure your legs get the attention they deserve, whilst the anti-ladder technology gives durability. These luxurious High Shine Tights are also available in plus size up to XXL. Look great no matter your shape. 68% Nylon, 32% Spandex

20 Denier
No Waistband
Sheer to Waist
Cotton Gusset

 

The Packaging: so the front (as you can see) has the model wearing the black pair, and the back goes into a little more detail about them:

“New super glossy, highly resistant tights, laser cut waistless, never seen before. Feel like a second skin and are ladder-resistant. Great mix of shine, comfort and technology.”

As you get inside, these are neatly wrapped around promotional card. These are subtly shaped to the legs and feet, which is great so you can follow the crease down to get the toes spread to roll right on up.

 

On The Legs: I decided to go some images with flash, and other without so you can see the difference.

The quality of them are amazing; I hardly snagged these this time around. These are easy to damage let me just say! I snagged them so bad last time, so I made sure I was more cautious this time around.

The denier being 20 is enough to get a nice thick oily looking shine on the legs, and still gives great coverage.

The fit of them are spot on; I felt there was enough room and stretch to them to fit my legs perfectly. There isn’t too much stretch let me add, so I would go up one size if you’re unsure after checking the sizing guide. The feel of them are so nice and super soft. I love feeling them I gotta say! They are to die for, and trust me when I say once you stroke them, it’s hard to stop!

The colour is one that I was hesitant to do (as always with grey) but I am so glad I did. It’s not a dark grey at all, and when the light (or flash) hits, it just becomes super sheer and glossy. You lose the actual grey and it becomes super stunning!

 

The Toes & Ankle: so the toes have plenty of wiggle room in them and they don’t cause any pressure on the toes at all. I had long nails (which do need cutting down) so I had to be extra careful in my heels today to make sure I didn’t make any holes!

Around the ankles it was a lovely smooth finish as always!

 

The Seamless Band: works so well under anything that has the word bodycon in it! Once again, I felt these came up a lot higher on my waist rather than at belly-button level like they normally do, so they ended up rolling down a little. It was no biggie this time as I wasn’t wearing a bodycon.

My Thoughts?

Once again I have had so much fun being in them, and I gotta say the grey is so much more appealing than the black in my eyes. I felt they stood out more, and would be perfect for Spring/Summer!

  1. Your legs look fantastic in these I have a pair only in the Moreno shade. Yes your right this
    I know when wearing mine my legs have that oiled look and love wearing these. From the fit, plus the look is magnificent plan on getting more colors. Even at 20 denier they are durable compared to other sheer pantyhose due to the spandex content just not indestructible you can’t just pull like your in a tug of war lol.

  2. Absouloutely gorgeous on you, Soni. Love how they enhance you lovely slender legs.
    I will be buying some for my own use.
