Here's me in boy mode (as of early October):


Here's my early October attempt at making myself up as a girl:


It's funny - when I look in the mirror, sometimes I think I could really pass. But then I take a photo and it looks completely unfeminine.

IT'S CHRIIIIIIIIIISTMAS

estrogen can do wonders

So, not trying to sound needy or anything but, by the lack of response from the pic I posted a few pages back am I to assume I stand no chance at passing? Thanks

Sorry hun, I had to go back a few pages but just seen your pic! Course you pass! Well, I think so anyway, looking great for your second time with makeup. I think in my second time with makeup I had lipstick on my nose and mascara on my forehead lol xx

Picture seemed a bit blurry or could be the glare off the window, but you look very good.

A little over 2 months HRT.

So this is me 2nd time I've ever done makeup. So I'm still learning

(I've never tried quoting from the phone. I hope this works)

Chrissy you look lovely! Honestly. I think anyone here would be proud to be seen with you. You much more than pass! A+! You should feel confident. There are so many lovely ladies posting here, if you don't look at the thread frequently, you miss so much.

You go girl!


Dori.

Holy hell, I found an old picture of me!!! This was taken when I was 15 in school!



Haven't seen old me in ages! Here I am now at 21

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I went back and saw your pic, It's a great job for a first time with makeup! It's really quite the learning curve to actually learn the steps behind it. Keep going and you'll only get better and better! Always always always experiment with new shadows and stuff, it's so much fun to see the end result of different combinations!

Update: here's a newer picture of me:

No makeup, just my normal, everyday hairstyle. Usually, though, it ends of poofing out halfway through the day.

I notice how much happier everyone looks in the after pictures.  I can't wait for the day when I can get there too.

Ok I think I got this posting pics directly to my post thing down now. This is me, boy-mode, pre-HRT, post-losing 100 lbs. Not sure if I have any hope of ever passing.





Edit - maybe I don't have it down. Sheesh.

But of course you can totally pass hun! your facial bone structure is round ish and refined. You will have no problems passing at all!

Thank you clarabrown! So much! Having an emotional weekend of conflict with my dysphoria and new addition to my family. You have no idea how well timed your comment was.

I think you're pretty cute myself, though you didn't ask.

Awww thank you! Every woman loves to be told they look pretty, so compliment accepted. Hahaha. x

Clara.

Pretty sure this is the first time I have posted a picture on the site! Anyways, would love for any and all feedback. This is pre everything @ 27... Hoping to start HRT in the next few months. All of these were from the very first time I wore makeup, about a month ago - it was more difficult than I thought, lol! But in the end I was happy with the results, and it was the first time I ever looked in the mirror and liked the reflection. Some things I discovered...
- need to get rid of the beard asap. I have thick hair and a fair amount of it, and of course it is dark too! Appt tomorrow for laser quote.
- Must learn how to not get a caked or shiny look. I think the beard being removed will help alot since I need to use so dang much to cover.
- Colored lip balm looks great on the lips, but sucks as a red coloring to conceal shadow.  oops!

The obligatory 'angle' selfie:


More selfie, but less 'angle' magic:


And this was from a few nice shots I took with the DSLR. The portrait came out wonderfully, but I cropped because I feel a little self conscious about the bewbs since they are stuffed and not natural...
