A couple of years ago while scrolling on FacebookĀ I came across an ad for extremely cute bathing suits at an impossibly low price. The advertisement was for a website called Zaful. I figured it was a random store that sold fakes of expensive brands so ignored my urge to order. Fast forward two years and I found that Zaful has made a name as one of the leading online retailers in affordable swimwear and fashion. My question is if it only looks popular from their amazing marketing team or if customers enjoy their products. I took it upon myself to order a few of their more popular styles and review them on quality, price, the resemblance to the photo and will give it an overall rating for the bikini.

Suit one: Palm Tree Braided Cami Bikini Set $15
Ā
Quality
The quality of the actual bikini wasnāt bad. The biggest flaws were that the back clasp was difficult to fasten with my hands behind my back and that the pads were thick and circles that donāt match any breast shape. The top and bottom both fit true to size.
Price
Considering that the price was only $15 and that it fit nicely I would say that the suit was priced well.
Resemblance to photo
The suit matches the photo 100%, meaning that this image isnāt from another retailer.
Overall Rating
Since I got a cute bikini that not only fits well but is also flattering I would give this ā stars, only because the back clasp is almost impossible to fasten on my own.
Ā
Suit Two: Padded Cami Bikini Set $15
Ā
Quality
I ordered this set in a size medium because the bottoms looked extra cheeky and Zaful has a reputation of selling suits a size smaller than theyāre listed. This fit perfectly with a size medium but the back was still cheeky, so if thatās not your thing I wouldnāt advise purchasing this. Besides the sizing, this suit feels sturdy and like nothing will fall out when Iām in the ocean.
Price
I feel like I got more than what I paid for with this suit. Iāve seen similar ones sold for roughly $60 at other retailers so I feel like I got a great bargain.
Resemblance to photo
The suit matches the photo 100% again. Just as cheeky in real life as it is in the photo.
Overall rating
I give this suit 5/5 stars because I got exactly what I paid for and more. Iāll be able to wear the top all summer and in my opinion, thatās worth the $15 compared to some tops that go for $30.

Suit Three: Off Shoulder Padded Tiny Floral Bikini $14
Quality
Iāve seen tons of pictures of girls effortlessly looking amazing in this bikini, it had to of been the bikini that made them look amazing, right? It fit these girls like a glove and they rocked it. Me? Not so much. Again, I ordered a medium in this suit because I was worried about the bottoms digging into me. With this suit, however, it was the top that was the issue. The bra within the top dug into my chest making a muffin top on my shoulders. The bottoms fit perfectly. The quality of the material was good I just feel that the sizing was off.
Price
Considering that the price was less than the other two sets I can blame that on the lower quality. I got what I paid for.
Resemblance to photo
The suit resembles the photo perfectly.
Overall Rating
Thereās not much to say about this suit besides the fact that it wasnāt for me. I didnāt feel as confident in it as I had with the others. It wasnāt comfortable and I canāt see myself wearing it a lot this Summer. I give it ā stars since the bottoms are nice.

After trying out three of the bikinis on Zaful I can say that I would shop there again. A tip that I have is to read the reviews on the specific suits. People always write whether to size up or down which saved me on ā suits. If you would rather spend your money on fun activities this summer instead of on expensive bikinis, then Zaful is a great website for you.
