I've been looking for something like that Alexaz. Thank you!

There are several free virtual makeup apps for ipads although I have found them a bit limited but they are good for experimenting with looks! Search the app store.

Oh what fun playing with these make up apps. I put my doctored pic up as my profile pic. I masked it with effects to try and hide facial hair. Anyway, I think I'm going to be a great looking 50 something woman!

[Guest TGTrish]

Marcie,

Getting rid off facial hair is something you can start before any other obvious signs of transition. If you have light skin it doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg either. I'm successfully flashing away my beard shadow with a Flash-n-Go. About every 10-14 days I shave, wash, and flash my face, it's working. At first it took a good layer of concealer to hide the darker areas, now a quick electric razor shave almost does it. A little foundation and I'm good for 5-6 hours. I've flashed maybe 8-10 times so far. By 15-20 I doubt I'll have much trouble with facial hair. I'll go to an electrolysist to finish off what's left when I can afford it.

I like the idea of an app rzther than uploading my pic. Frankly. I tend tobe quite apprehensive about uploading certain types of images,

[Guest Marcie]

Your not kidding Fiona! I have a huge problem with that. I'll upload an image and then Get scared and pull it off. I tell you I'm tired of hiding behind this mansquise. I will one day tell everyone that I don't care what they think. Right now I still think that the world has hang ups with gender bending......oh wait, they do!!!!

Love y'all

While I obviously don't want some photo with me dressed or wearing makeup on the net, even photos in general can be stolen and used for nefarious purposes. I guess I've gotten paranoid over the years....

[Guest JODYGIRL]

i find it easy to do the baby steps.i wear my female jeans,my fleece and clothes are getting more female colors. ive found that doing one thing until its sort of natural works best. i live in a small rural village so every thing has to be gentle. dont rush it just because you think its what anyone expects. find yourself and take time over it.we are all different and im more on the butch side that some dislike but thats their problem, but you should see some of the cis women round here lol.

[Guest Marcie]

Thanks for that Jody. I have to take baby steps although I live in one of the most tolerant cities in the U.S. I love the feel of fleece. Maybe I'll go shopping and get one in a unisex (but subtly femme) color. One day I will have a beautiful wardrobe. Every girls dream......

[Guest saoirse]

I'm also working on my mannerisms. I went the other way (forced presentation as very masculine) most of my life and have a lot of work to do...

you and me both sister , it seems like a lot of us do this , pretend we are super macho and stuff so no one will question our gender.

[Guest alexaz]

Hi again

Im not positive but the photo I uploaded to TAZZ .com to do makeup experiments with isnt shared on the web.

Theres a place on TAZZ you can say whether you want it public or private whenever uploaded .

I have gone on TAZZ several times without signing in and have never seen my photo there and I have looked at page after page of makeovers done by hundreds of people including guys that seem to be trans and never seen mine there.

I too am very apprehensive about putting any info about myself out there. Heck, Im not even on facebook or twitter for that reason but think TAZZ is safe.

If your really worried about it you can upload your photo do the makeover and then delete it and that will take care of that.

BTW my profile pic is one that I did on TAZZ

While that MAY be true, it depends on the software. NOTHING is ever really deleted. Even on your own computer, deleted data is recoverable for quite some time. When I have an old hard drive or retire a computer, i remove the hard drive and disassemble the drive. Remove the platters and cut them in quarters.

There's an old saying, once on the net, always on the net. We should ALL keep thst in mind.

I have owned and operated and still co-own and help admin forums sites. Trust me, nothing is truly deleted and ANYTHING that you can be seen, can be copied, if if sharing or downloading is 'disabled' on the site...

[Guest Marcie]

Yeah I Checked it out and your right. It's fun to see what you would look like with different hairstyles and makeup. Thanks again for the info Alexa. I'm sure many of us who can't dress when ever we want will enjoy using the virtual makeup sites.

Marcie

[Guest Marcie]

I'll send you a personal post fiona. Have questions concerning nsfw. Sounds like you're up on this stuff.

[Guest]

Ugggg. Last night around 12:30AM and ran into an hour long fiasco with google play and my account while trying to download that TAAZ app. Apparently I didnt keep proper notes in my login and uggghhhh...

[Guest Marcie]

OK so I know what I can do to conceal some feminine attire, jewelry and toe nail polish etc. I have decided to start with that as soon as I get home. This is going to be fun. I'm going to tell my wife what I'm doing, I expect she'll go along with it. She will probably enjoy it too as long as she knows she will not lose me in the process. I thank you so much for all of the ideas you have given me. It is apparent that most of you c are about our issues and share positive info. I swear that without you these last few weeks, life would have been much more intolerable. If I can ever be of assistance to anyone of you, reach out to me and I'll help if I can. I thought recently that nothing is trivial in the transgender world. If it is important to you, if something is bothering you than it is important. This topic was important to me and your awesome answers were much needed. My love goes out to you all!

best,

Marcie

[Guest Marcie]

Feeling down today. I wish I could dress for female success. I will soon. I hate being depressed.

[Guest]

Hi Marcie, sorry to hear that you're feeling down. I sent you a couple PMs. Not sure if they're showing up for you. Take care

[janetcgtv]

for attitude: watch chic movies and read women's magasines(keyboard), or romance novels if so inclined. .If you can afford it have electrolysis done on your face and other places later..

Another thing try to get more involved with women in a feminine way. They can be your best friend as you will be theirs.

Slowly drop any macho behavior if you can do it.

Wear women's perfume and use feminine smelling products when you bathe.

Please take the advice from all here to help you to become feminine.

Pick up a feminine hobby or hobbies like sewing

Just do things slowly until you are ready to display your femininity to others.

[Guest KerryUK]

Hi Jane,

Everyone has days when they don't feel feminine. I say to my partner when I'm feeling 'blokey'. She always reminds me that all women have days like that - it's just part of being a woman. It makes it the more worthwhile when you get ready and feel pretty and feminine.

Hey girls.....I thought of a couple that would be awesome. Anklets and toe rings! Very cute ones. No one will know but me.......unless of course I wear short shorts and pink sandles!!!! Oh so much fun! Seriously, when I think about these things my depression dissapears. Today I love my life.

Marcie

Marcie , wow love the idea regarding the anklets and toe rings , Awesome hugs and thx.

[Gwenlingfelt]

Thank you all for the wonderful ideas , amazing.

[anadana]

I always wear unisex clothes such as women's jeans, leggings, shorts, tops as well as women's beauty darted flannels and suit coats/ overcoats, even boots and gym shoes which allows me to dress as a woman in public without being to obvious about it
