I Tried TikTok's "Leggings Theory" and My Butt Has Never Looked Better

I was inspired to buy these Nvgtn Scrunch Seamless Leggings ($48) after seeing how great my friend looked in her own gym sets. I know the scrunch is a bit controversial, but if you can deal with the wedgie, I'm not really mad at it. When I first tried these on, I felt like I had been let it on some kind of gym-girl secret. Now that I can look at the results more objectively, I don't think these are quite as life-changing, but they definitely make my butt look a lot better than the control leggings.
