Make sure you've no residual cream, talc or make up on your hands or legs as you pull them up, some brands are better than others, I personally now use Ann summers ones, a bit more pricy, but they suit me.

Good luck.

I have found that my Latex ones stay up pretty well if I don't apply talcum powder before hand

I keep the gun pointed right at their head,also fire a shot in the ceiling or just missing their feet.

They'll keep their hands up until you've made good your escape and/or the coppers arrive.

Hold up successful!

some brands aren't very good at staying put...

I had problems with Anne Summers hold ups but Matalan ones are brilliant, and very good value for money

I've tried most brands from expensive to Cheaper ones but I struggle to get any that stay up because my legs are so slim !!

If the sticky bit has lost its stickiness, a quick blast with a hairdryer can help. But I don't have much luck with hold ups either, they only stay up on me if there's a really thick band.

Quick tip- spray hairspray on your thighs just beforehand- helps them stay in place

I think it's a matter of finding the right brand to fit your leg shape. I've never had a problem with Tesco ones and i have thunder thighs. Ann summers ones on the other hand always seem to fall down.

Primark have some nice ones, they aren't very accommodating for the larger leg, but when my yoyo diet allows, I do find them very good

I love hold ups but can only ever wear a pair once. They stay up just great but if i try and wear them again they never do. It doesn't matter what brand, they all do the same, so i get mine from asda

A quick tip to try. Wash by hand, without getting the top elastic wet, and don't let and detergent or softener make its way to elastic, dry over a towel on the radiator, should get a second wear out of them.

I get fed up reattaching 1 clip all the time, so hold ups are better for me.

I'm assuming that was sarcastic though you're so good at it I can't tell!

Sarcasm level = God!

Primark good for sheer.

Buy the right size!

try roll-on sock glue, its the stuff irish dancers use....

google staysput and order direct from their web site... the 50ml bottle is better value.

Works a treat - you can thank me later ladies.....

ps - if you try the sock glue, don't take your stockings off while you're still out for the evening, your thighs will stick together....ask me how I know....lol
