Femouflage (please give tips on passing better)

[jainie marlena]

I have taken so many picture to find truoble area it is crazy. I love hats and I guess that is a good thing. My forhead and nose drive me up the wall but when I put on just the right hat it vanishes. What would be some good ideas for femouflaging the face without make up? Oh, and other parts of the body as well.

Even drug store makeup would go along way. Just do it in a very subtle way. Natural makeup is better than no makeup at all. Bronzer/contouring can conceal an addam's apple.

A little is better than nothing at all.

Is bronzer the name of it? When you say drug store like wal greens.

[Mahsa Tezani]

Go to ULTA. Bronzer as makeup? No, bronzing powder won't stay on.

Makeup is easy once you get the hang of it, but the skills aren't gonna come over night. Watch some youtube videos and learn more.

Eyeliner can go a looooonnnnggg way.

Eyeliner and eye shadow though... eyeliner on a blank eye looks bad. I recommend getting a shade that matches the flesh tone...adding that, some contouring(either grey or brown...brown looks sexier)

Plenty of mascara. The fuzzy black wand is your friend.

Btw, you have to get specific brushes. For a wider texture on the eye, you use a "C" brush, for your contour use a specific brush, etc...you have to use these effectively. Get a decent foundation brush, a decent transparent powder, etc...

And get your eyebrows done. I have bangs now which are concealing them, but normally i get them done every two months due to slow hair growth.

ELF has good brushes at Target for 1-3 bucks each. They sell a good setting spray as well...

@samantha I have eyeliner but I have trouble putting it on.

@mahsa I'm all about the browns. My blonde hair works well with brown. Brown works great with my skin tone. I'm not sure what order to put the make up on. I messed up one of my brushes getting mascara on it put power on. Didn't even realize it until my face started looking like I had a big bruse on it. Lol. I was like what the he**! Lol. I was in hurry that night I was about to go out.

I've talked to a lot of ts's and even on the board...we're subdivided by those who wear makeup and who don't.

If I lived closer, I'd do your makeup for you... I recommend just getting some eye makeup remover and practicing. Thats how I learned and sitting at a desk or something.

Well I want to wear make up. the woman that waxes my face knows about me I've been thinking about asking her to help with it.

[Keaira]

that wouldnt be a bad idea.

Actually, here's a couple of Youtubers that have great tutorials. I have eyeliner and mascara. I need to get more make-up but I need a vehicle more.

The best way is not wearing make up! I never wear make up or very little (less is more) and pass better without make up. Make up sometimes highlights the male points in your face.

@naturally blonde, any tips on hair or some other things that helps to pass with out make up? I am a plain jain most of the time but at the same time I  like to wear make up to go out. I have heard my whole life that to much make up is worse than not having any on at all.

Not really. Maybe overdone queen makeup(thick lips, brows, etc). But natural makeup means the person took more time.

There's a rule in the industry when it come's to transsexual and it goes:

"Better to be overdone, than not done at all"

But that's just my opinion.
