This is just subjective conjecture, but you look way better without makeup.  I've always felt that makeup doesn't enhance beauty; it hides it and creates this fake normality that changes our perception of what we really look like.  When you start feeling like you don't look like you without makeup on then there's a problem. 

Every girlfriend I've ever had I've always told them to rock au naturel, and they've always looked so much better.  Sure, a lil eyeliner and mascara goes a long way, but foundation and concealer and lipstick (which do nothing but clog your pours and create dermatology issues)?  Nty.

Anyway.  You look great.  It'd honestly be nice to see more of the real you; no wig, no makeup as without either you're presenting the real you and that in itself is beautiful. :)
Carpe diem.

hmm yeah but this is personnal i think.  I am to early in transition to start presenting "my male converted self" .

I still see a men without a proper makeup that is still natural in my opinion.  I wouldnt really require foundation but as long as i fight with beard shadow i will keep using it.  ( 5th laser therapy in  2 week)

After my FFS in 2 week and after the recovery my natural hairs will be long enough so i can use  glued hair extensions . Finally!    I dont know if i will stay black or go with highlighted blonde hairs.

i am not so different ( at the moment because this will change and improve) then ciswoman that look fabulous with makeup and  completely different without it.

Ok so I found this very pretty dress and just had to wear it out to a transgender evening event.
I would love some feed back.  How do you girls think I'm progressing @ 11.5 months low dose HRT.

Hair's longer, still learning makeup.  Sometimes, like in the selfie from above, I feel like there's a chance, but then I see the second and third pics, and I think, no way.





Your current situation is not your final destination.

I like you with the makeup on, very sexy  ;)

Your face reminds of Megan Fox. I also love the tattoo's. Well placed tattoo's can make a woman look much sexier.

Unfortanutely my 1 tattoo is too manly :embarrassed:

Looking great Karlie. If it makes you feel better most of us don't seem to like our own profile views :)

Well, here I am.

Flaws, I know.

But this is me :-)

Definitely yes way Karlie, you look fab in all those piccies! The profile shot is hard for everybody, cis girls included, its very difficult to get the lighting right. If I could offer a couple of lil tips? Get your ears pierced, its makes such a dramatic change, for such a quick and is relatively cheap. Also I find if I'm wearing a top that shows a lot of skin, its best to break it up a bit with a nice glammy necklace :) Awesome makeup skills lady X
Don't let anyone ever dull your sparkle!

Tips to Crissy1979 and Techgirl. If you want to appear more feminine and easier pass, I really recommend you to change glasses. Square glasses make you look more masculine. You could rather have lesser square glasses and a bit rounder - softer frames. Maybe a difference color at the glass frames would do more wonders too. It's much harder for you both to pass with square glasses in my opinion. Square glasses also make your masculine features more visible for me.

Was going to explore options while at my next annual checkup.  Which, coincidentally, I need to make an Appt for  [emoji4]

I am hoping for the day I could go out as a female and feel really close to passable. I like how I look when I have the sunglasses on but that doesn't work for indoors. I wonder if it would be possible to go with the right frame of eyeglasses that could add as much to the feminine look as the sunglasses do.

I don't think people mind how much a person pass or not. I think people usually have enough with their business. :)

Well this is my first picture here.  I haven't done makeup in awhile (2 weeks or so) decided to have a go at it, and see how I looked fully natural me, as I've hit about my mid-mark weight loss wise (down to 205 from 230ish).  No way can I pass with my terrible beard shadow.  I can't stand the amount of foundation I have to put on to cover things up. 

But I felt this was one of my better jobs to date on makeup.  Still feeling very insecure/dysphoric about how I look in the mirror but I wanted to share.  I'm pre, with maybe a little bit of residual man-boob.
