So, how do I de-emphasize my frankensteinian brow-line?

Hey, Beauty Queens!

I need some make-up tips for hiding a masculine brow...

If you look at the pics on my profile page you'll see what I mean. I'm pretty happy with how I look for being just under 6 months of HRT in general, but I HATE that brow with a passion!

How can I hide it?

I don't want to have bangs, I hate 'em, so what to do?

I know, FFS is surely in my future, but until then???

Thanks in advance, I really need some help with this..

Wow Svenna, uh can I borrow Roxie? She does some really nice make up work and she has you looking really like WOW. Does she ever consider teaching classes? The browline is a toughie for most of us. It's going to take FFS to get rid of it. I have the same issue as you do. I'm calling for Electrolysis today. I won't even consider FFS until that is finished and as I'm so blond even at my age, laser is not in my future. And I hate bangs as well. I'm growing my hair out and catching some crap about that, but I just don't care. Kathryn

More dramatic but not over the top lashes. More detail and attention to your lower eye portions. Different lipstick shades. Hair style with a bit more curl and body at the bottom and bring the front more in and around your face for a softer overall shape.

LOL!!

Well, Roxy has her talents, yes she does..

But she don't come cheap, lemme tell ya! lol..

I keep saying that I won't consider FFS until the HRT has had a chance to work for a couple of years, but I can see already that my brow and nose are gonna need re-shaping..

I told Roxy tonight that I think I would rather have FFS than any other surgery, if it came down to just one...

I HATE having male gender markers on my face. I can hide what is in me pants, but my face is right out there, confirming I was once 'male'...

UGH!!!

This MUST change, the sooner, the BETTER!!!

I'll be looking into laser for my beard shadow ASAP, too...

UGH!!

Dysphoria? What? ME??

Nah...

Doh!

*sigh* what does a S/O say when the love of her life wants to change the face she longs to see every day for the rest of her life? :(

      Things are moving quickly now that I have my drivers license and social security card in my new name. It was really affirming when I got my first paycheck in my new name.

      Amazingly I have found many cis women are absolutely wrong in their assumptions about bra fittings. I knew an elderly lady that said, "I have been a C cup since school, I just buy a bigger band size as my breasts grow." This is completely WRONG as the band should always fit snug with they gore firmly against the chest.    One of CNA's came into Torrid and I helped her pick out a new bra. She didn't even understand band size was inches and cups/band combo were based off Victorian shirt sizes.  She said, "how do you know so much?"   We found her proper fitting band size, then found a cup she fit.    How can people that take the vast majority of bra users know so little about them? Seems most cis women just use "try it on" only.

      As has been said many times, this is not a black and white issue. Sure.  I get it that a MtF person that has gone through full male puberty and "transitioned" 6 months ago probably has an advantage in some sports.  But these bans affect elementary school kids too. I mean, banning trans women from Darts?  Chess?

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...
