Okay here are some things I am going to post which I think are subtle ways to make yourself look more feminine if like me you aren't interested in slapping on tonnes of make up or dressing up to much:

1) CLEAN SKIN, Yes I have put this at number one. Showering at least once or twice a day and having a good facial scrub makes the absolute world of difference and is worth spending up on. Glowing healthy skin not only makes you look younger but makes you look quite alot more feminine.

2) Get rid of those bags / dark circles. For me concealer is fantastic if you don't like loads of make up. I use match perfection from rimmel london (great range) and it really changes the way my face looks, so much smoother, even and a great color, makes your eyes appear natural and awake, even if like me you feel like your super tired alot of the time due to work etc :P

3) Discreet mascara / eyeliner. If you research guyliner it can be a good hint, and the worst that can come of it is you look might look like a bit of a gothy guy which is actually pretty cool anyway :P I have good eyelashes anyway so I only wear eyeliner if I want to be a bit more ''impressive'' but it can make a massive difference if your lashes aren't thick or you have problems with them.

4) Body language. Now I have not perfected this at all yet. It seems so natural for me to stomp around, slouched over which is the biggest give away. Just the way you conduct yourself. I have found that if I don't actually worry about the way I walk / look / conduct myself it comes more naturally, if you tell yourself 'I AM A GIRL' then it all comes natural, it's all in the hips and walking slower / more gracefully :P

5) Now hair is debatable, but longer hair if in early stages of transition like me helps, I have medium length hair at the moment and always strive to take good care of it, this includes daily washing / shampoo / conditioner and brushing, healthy shiny hair helps alot.

These are just the visual aspects, of course dressing helps to! Wearing brighter colours such as (for example what I wear) light blue skate shoes, more colourful hoodies, coloured bands etc helps.

Overall just be yourself!

C'est vrai. More internally, I think simply feeling female from the inside can project amazing things on the outside.

having nice eyebrows, white teeth and long hair help :)

I love these tips! Simple things go such a long way. Especially the showering!

I've found that growing out my fingernails ever so slightly makes me feel way more feminine. Even the feel of them on the keyboard when I'm typing makes me smile. :D

I'd like to add: Eyelash Curler.  Even if you have naturally long, dark eyelashes, using a curler on them (right at the base of your eyelid) makes a big difference, even without mascara.  It takes just a few seconds.  :)
