Steps

Step 1

Choose color wisely

Consider the color. Strong colors or patterns show through light-colored fabric. If your pants are white, wear panties that match your skin tone.
Step 2

Try a thong

Try a thong. Be sure to check out the rear view when you sit or squat; those positions tend to expose half the thong if you’re wearing low-riders.
Step 3

Test-drive microfiber panties

Test-drive panties made of paper-thin microfiber, a light, stretchy material that eliminates bulging.
Step 4

Pull on boy-leg briefs

Pull on a pair of boy-leg briefs. The longer leg will eliminate panty lines that cut across the butt. But if your pants are tight, the edges still may show.
If your outfit permits, wear a body shaper that rides high on the waist and goes down to the mid-thigh.
Step 5

Go faux commando

Go faux commando by ordering disposable cotton patches that adhere to the inside of your pants, allowing you the freedom of no underwear without any discomfort.
Step 6

Go actual commando

Leave your underwear at home altogether. It’s the only 100% guaranteed way to avoid panty lines!
