Judging from the first photo you are even more successful in taking pictures as you are in being a girl. Congrats!

Lesley,
    Where have you been hiding girl! I like the top photo, the other photo not so much for feminine traits. I'd try a different hair style to minimize the height of your forehead which appears rather masculine. Other than that you're looking pretty!

I've been full time for over 6 months, no HRT but also no T due to Kleinfelters. I took these pics trying to get something for an online profile but worried about whether the passed or not. I know the one with glasses needs bang work.  I usually keep my hair in a pony.  Comments?

Hola Rosa,
I actually like your looks in the bottom photo best, your hair is like mine and needs a lot of treatment to liven it up, but you're much better looking in the bottom photo with the perm and bangs are good for you even though they need some work. I'd avoid a pony tail unless you intend to present more androgynously. Nice to see you dear!

I would agree with Shantel - I like the bottom photo the best.  I also think the hair looks better down.

That photo is especially nice.

I have to have my hair up at work, plus down it blows all over. I have thought about bangs but hate to cut my hair. In the one pic I was trying to get a bang look. No perm though, ts all natural. Curls when wet and stays unless I comb it out, but then gets wiry and frizzy.

I haven't started HRT yet, still trying what I can on my own until the stars come into alignment and get the rest of the process started.  I like to think I look mostly passable so long as my face is spackled thoroughly...

Makeup definitely helps transform a face but you went way overboard on everything except the lips.
Eyeshadow isn't something most women wear and does nothing to feminize faces tbh, it can actually do the opposite.
Blush is too intense and your nose contour is too dark.
eyeliner is also a tad too thick.

I'm sure with more subtle makeup you can pass facially.

That's pretty spectacular photography.  And the model is cute too.

I'm liking the curl, girl

I don't think this is true.  Most women do wear eyeshadow.  Maybe not all the time, maybe usually in more natural colors, but I'd say almost every woman who wears makeup at all has and uses eyeshadow.  However, most makeup artists will agree that if you are going to try to make your lips stand out, avoid making the eyes stand out and vice-versa

I'd agree with you on the blush though. 

Again, this is just opinion, I'd probably go with either thinner eyeliner and possibly even not go with black, but I think the eyeshadow looks fine as it is.  I'm no expert.

Most women I know don't often wear eyeshadow - at least not during the day..

Makeup is one of those things that seems to cause contention.. And it all boils down to location and age.. As a late 30's woman, I almost never wear eyeshadow during the dau, unless it's a special occasion.. Going out at night? I'll wear it for sure..

Yeah, but eyeshadow is usually at least 2 colors, one on the lid and a darker color in the crease.
I'm pointing out that hers is one solid color from lid to her eyebrow, it's a bit much. If this was a look for night time, sure, but what she has on is definitely not a day time look which is the point isn't it? Passing as female?

Even though I've seen plenty of women that go out to bars with no makeup on. The most I've seen is just eyeliner + mascara + blush and *maybe* lipstick.
Every day women don't wear much makeup like Kelly said.

Wow, lots of good advice here.  Looking more critically at my pics I think I agree about the blush/eyeliner/nose.  Especially my nose, it just looks like a blotch of some kind of mess on my face.  The thick eyeliner looks more suited to my clubbing outfits than it does to something like this, so thinner and less dark is probably the way to go there. 

Part of my problem is likely that I've been practicing from more heavily made up looks, which really don't look right as an every-day style.  Thanks for the feedback, I'll post again when I cook up something a bit more subtle!

@Christina, second pic, you are making it girl.

@Jamie-Taylor, you look delicious girl.

@Rosa, so nice to see you & recognize a face with a name. The wavy curls really work for you, very femme.

@Leslley Scotte, I went through all your photos, you have a way with a camera, excellent. The side lit photo of you, you look darling!

Trying to catch up to the posts of all these Beautiful ladies! Keep doing what your are doing!
Hugs
Jamie

Already pass in my opinion.

You not only pass in these pictures, especially the top two, you look really pretty.
