Feminization Secrets

Cleavage can go a long way towards making you look like a woman, but until now, it hasn't been easy to pull off.

Tape is the traditional way to create cleavage, but it's difficult to use and can be ultra painful if you don't know what you're doing.

Fortunately, there is a solution that can work wonders for TG females. It's the Nubra!

The Nubra is a backless, strapless "stick-on" bra that adheres directly to the breasts. The cups are attached separately and then clasped, pulling the breasts together and creating cleavage like a charm.

The Nubra sells for $30 on Nubra.com, but you can usually find better prices on Ebay. (Look for the FeatherLite or UltraLite styles.)

Here's how to create incredible cleavage with the Nubra:



1. Prep your chest

The Nubra requires a clean, smooth surface to adhere to. Shave your chest the night before and wash with soap and water immediately before applying the Nubra.

2. Attach the bra cups

Unclasp the Nubra so the cups are separated. Take one cup and flip it so the adhesive side is sticking out. Smooth it down over one breast and repeat on the other side, making sure to position both cups equally. The further the cups are from each other, the more cleavage you'll be able to create.

3. Connect the clasps

Bending over slightly, pull your breasts together and clasp the bra in the middle.

4. Put on your push-up bra and falsies

The Nubra should be worn under a push-up bra and breast forms. Position the breast forms in the outside corners of your bra and tighten the bra straps for extra lift and cleavage.

You may have a feminine face, a melodic voice, and a body like Beyonce, but there is one detail that can quickly give away that fact that you aren't as girlish as you seem: I'm talking about man hands!

Males have bigger hands than their female counterparts, even if they are a similar height and weight. This is due to the fact that males were evolved to do hard physical labor with their upper bodies.

Fortunately, it IS still possible for you to look feminine right down to your fingertips. All you have to do is disguise the less ladylike aspects of your hands. Here's how!

1. Keep your nails neatly groomed.

You can't change the size of your hands, but you can take better care of them. People always notice dirty, straggly nails. You don't have to grow your nails out, but do keep them clean and neatly shaped.

2. Remove the hair from your knuckles.

It amazes me how many crossdressers forget about this simple and obvious detail! Women don't have hair on their hands, so grab a razor and remove the fluffy stuff.

3. Don't wear excessive jewelry near your hands.

You might think that flashy rings and bracelets make your hands look more feminine, but they call attention to an area that should be kept low key. Stick to one or two pieces max.

4. Choose the right proportions.

Dainty rings and bracelets make your hands look even bigger in comparison. Wear chunky jewelry instead.

There is no reason to hide your hands when you crossdress. As long as you don't spotlight them with bad grooming and loud jewelry, most people won't notice your hands. They'll be too busy admiring the rest of your feminine look!

Lucille

Heels are the ultimate feminine accessory, so is it any wonder that most crossdressers salivate at the sight of stilettos? As a petite woman, I share your passion - but let's face it: learning to walk in heels is a daunting task for genetic women and crossdressers alike! Fortunately, it's something anybody can master with practice.

Ready to polish your supermodel strut? Here are 10 essential tips for walking in heels:

1. Work your way up.

The higher the heel, the greater the challenge, so start with a pair of heels no more than two inches tall. Once you've mastered that pair, you try a higher heel.

2. Practice standing in heels.

Before you take your first step, practice your balance by standing in heels. Experiment with different poses as you get used to the added height.

3. Improve your posture.

Keep your shoulders back, your spine tall, and your chest forward. Good posture keeps you steady in the highest of heels.

4. Take a few steps.

Now you're ready to walk! Take your first steps on a hard surface since carpet can throw off your balance.

5. Point your feet forward.

Beginning crossdressers tend to turn their feet out as they walk, so remember to keep both feet perfectly parallel.

6. Keep your legs together.

Women walk with their legs close together, so imagine that you are placing each foot along the edge of a ruler - you shouldn't have more than two inches between your feet.

7. Shorten your stride.

Big steps can trip you up; instead take small, delicate steps. The higher the heel, the shorter your stride should be.

8. Straiten your legs.

Bent knees throw off your balance and look inelegant. Practice walking with strait legs.

9. Challenge yourself.

Once you've mastered the basics, try turning in different directions. Take a few steps on different floor surfaces and practice your stride on stairs.

10. Practice makes perfect.

Walking in heels is totally different from walking in tennis shoes, so don't expect instant success. Just keep practicing and soon you'll be strutting with the best of us!

Lucille

A small waist is essential to looking feminine. In fact, studies have shown that the greater the difference between a woman's waist and hips, the more attractive she is considered to be.

Creating a waist can be a challenge for TG girls, but it CAN be done.

Obviously, the less weight you have around your middle, the better. You can't create a wasp waist out of a beer belly (gotta lose weight for that), but the good news is that there are a few quick fixes that can instantly whittle your waistline.

Here are 4 fast secrets to creating a feminine looking waist!

1. Wear a waist cincher.

Corsets are uncomfortable and impractical. Waist cinchers, on the other hand, are designed to reduce your waistline while still allowing you to breath.

Waist cinchers are made with high tech elastic and can take several inches off your waistline. Look for waist cinchers with boning for the best results. You can find waist cinchers in lingerie stores or online. (There's a good selection of waist cinchers up to a size 3X on Figleaves.com.)

2. Improve your posture.

Most of us have poor posture due to being slumped over computers all day. Well, there is no point in getting decked out in your best femme gear if you're going to slouch and let your gut hang out!

Good posture, on the other hand, can instantly take 10 pounds off your middle. Stand with your chest lifted, your shoulders back, and your tummy in. This can make a huge difference to your overall shape!

3. Put on a belt.

Belts, especially if they are wide, can act as waist cinchers if you wear them tight enough. (Just not too tight! There's nothing worse than seeing two big bulges of fat being squeezed out the sides of your belt.)

Belts also define your waist by drawing the eye inward, creating the illusion of having a smaller waistline. Try sticking to black or brown belts since dark colors also make an area look smaller.

4. Make your hips look bigger.

The size of your waist isn't as important as your overall proportions. The bigger your hips, the smaller your waist will appear.

Padded panties can give you extra curves, but you can also make your hips look bigger by wearing a full skirt. Look for skirts with pleats or gathers around the hips to balance your proportions and make your waist look smaller in comparison.

Most crossdressers and transsexuals don't just want to look like women - they want to look like beautiful women. Unfortunately, the features of a beautiful female face don't come naturally to most males - particularly the traits of a delicate jaw and chin.

So what if you were born with a jaw like Jay Leno? Don't despair!

There are plenty of beautiful genetic women with strong jaws and chins - just look at Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson, and Jennifer Aniston. They look great because they know how to flatter their features - and you can do it, too!

Try these four tips for disguising a manly jaw:

1. Contour your face.

When applying makeup, sweep a little bronzer or brownish-toned blush across your jawline and chin. This creates a shadow effect which makes strong features appear to recede.

2. Choose a softening hairstyle.

The purpose of a great hairstyle is to flatter your face by creating balance. Look for wigs with gentle waves that flow over the harsh angles of your face. Avoid strait hair or severe styles, as they will only make you look more manly.

3. Wear the right neckline.

Stay away from turtleneck or square necklines that accentuate a strong jaw. Instead, choose v-neck tops or rounded necklines to create a flattering frame for your face.

4. Feminize with accessories.

The right accessories can also help soften your look. Try wearing a scarf in a flattering shade around your neck - or some dangling earrings that skim over your jaw bone. The more you distract from your masculine features, the more convincing - and attractive - you will look as a woman!

Nothing can transform your appearance faster than a wig. How many genetic women do you know who can go from blonde to redhead to brunette in a matter of minutes?

Wigs are key to your success at passing. But they are also a minefield of potential mistakes, so don't let a bad wig do you in!

Here's how to transform your look from "drag queen with a cheap wig" to "sexy babe with hot hair":

1. DO invest in a good wig.

Nothing looks more ridiculous than a cheap wig, so invest in the highest quality wig you can afford. The hair fibers are a tip-off: a good wig feels soft and silky.

2. DON'T wear a long, platinum wig.

Ok, we all want to look like Paris Hilton, but how many people can pull off her hairstyle? Your best bet is to choose a length and color that flatter YOU.

3. DO stay within two shades of your natural color.

Choose a wig no more than two shades lighter or darker than your natural hair color. This guarantees that the wig will work with your skin tone.

4. DO try before you buy.

It's easy to order a wig over the Internet, but there is no way you can judge a color or style from your computer screen. Find a wig shop and try on as many styles as you need to. All wig shops have transgender customers and will welcome your business.

5. DON'T wear your wig too far down on your forehead.

This is one of the biggest mistakes most beginners make. Shortening your forehead makes you look like a Neanderthal, so push that thing up to your natural hairline!

Small feet are a coveted female trait (remember Cinderella with her tiny tootsies?), but they don't come easy to most TG females. Men have proportionately larger feet than women, even if they are the same height.

The good news is that you don't have to cut off any toes to make your feet look smaller! Try these tips to create the illusion of delicate feet:

1. Wear heels.

Heels make feet look smaller because they bend the foot into a vertical position. Flats, on the other hand, highlight the broad expanse of your foot. Just don't go overboard if you are tall. People are a lot more likely to notice you towering over them than if your feet are on the large side!

2. Look for shoes with rounded toes.

Thankfully, the pointed toe shoes that were popular a few years ago are on their way out. Pointed toes add length to the foot, which is NOT what you need. Rounded toes are much more flattering.

3. Avoid strappy sandals.

The more of your foot you expose, the larger it will appear, so strappy sandals should be avoided. Instead, you can show some skin by wearing peep toes or sling backs.

4. Do dark colors.

Light colors make an object appear larger, so avoid white, cream, or silver colored shoes. Instead, look for styles in dark or subdued tones to downplay the size of your feet.

Remember, fashion is all about smoke and mirrors. The more you highlight other parts of your body, the less likely people are to notice your feet. Keep your shoe styles simple and add flash to the areas you want to emphasize.

Crossdressers and transsexuals face many challenges, but perhaps none as frustrating as the battle of the beard. Shaving is fast and easy, but can lead to razor burn and ingrown hairs, not to mention the frustration of seeing a beard shadow after only a few hours.

While there is nothing you can do to stop your beard from growing (aside from painful electrolysis), it is possible for any crossdresser or transsexual have a soft, smooth, feminine face.

Here are seven secrets to getting the smoothest, longest lasting shave possible:

1. Avoid shaving first thing in the morning.

Most people wake up with slightly puffy skin in the morning. You'll get a closer shave if you wait 20-30 minutes for the skin to tighten, exposing more of the hair shaft.

2. Prep your skin.

Take a shower or wrap a hot, moist towel around your face and neck for several minutes before shaving to soften your beard and open up the hair follicles.

3. Always exfoliate.

Use a washcloth or an exfoliating scrub on your face to eliminate dead skin cells and raise hair stubs for a closer shave.

4. Use a regrowth slowing shaving cream.

For a long lasting shave, use a shaving cream, such as Aveeno's Positively Smooth Shave Gel, designed to slow hair regrowth. Avoid shaving creams containing menthol, as they can dry out the skin.

5. Select a great razor.

A great shave depends upon a great razor. Most crossdressers agree that the Gillette Sensor Excel is the ultimate tool for the job.

6. Don't use a dull blade.

Never use the same blade more than two or three times since dull blades can lead to razor burn and ingrown hairs. As a matter of fact, I suggest using a fresh blade every time you go en femme.

7. Do a two step shave.

A great pre-femme shave should be done in two steps: first, shave in the direction of hair growth. Then lather again, this time shaving against the grain for an even closer cut. Be sure to use small, gentle strokes to avoid irritation.

Lucille

Passing as a woman is the Holy Grail to most crossdressers and transsexuals. But it is really a goal worth pursuing?

If you've been afraid to go public for fear of "not passing," it might be time to rethink your priorities. I believe everybody has the potential to pass, but let's face it, it's not always easy. It could take years to master all the subtleties of walking, talking, and acting like a woman. And depending on your physical makeup, you might require electrolysis or even surgery to be truly passable in all situations.

For transsexual females on their way to becoming full time, these are necessary investments to make. But if you're a crossdresser with a full time job and a family, then trying to become 100% passable is probably not practical.

Rather than getting hung up on "passing" vs. "not passing" (which has unpleasant connotations of flunking out of grade school), I'd like to suggest you make it your goal to "blend in" instead.

The key to blending in is to create a harmonious female image. Dress appropriately and act natural. Most people don't scrutinize everybody around them, so unless there is something glaringly off about you, you are unlikely to attract a second glance.

Does this mean 100% of the population will think you are a genetic woman? Probably not. But it doesn't matter.

The happiest transgender females don't care whether they pass or not. Their main concern is being themselves.

Passing is great when it happens, but there's nothing wrong with being seen as the transgendered woman that you are! As long as you choose the right environment and present yourself well, you are likely to be met with acceptance.

Looking sexy is simple: All you need is big hair, big boobs, and big lips. The boobs and hair are simple. Just get a wig and a good set of breast forms. But what about the lips?

Most gals think the only way to enlarge your lips is with injections, but that's not true. I'm about to tell you how to plump your lips with some common kitchen ingredients, but first, here's why enhancing your lips is so important.

As Paris Hilton would say, "Full lips are hot!" Some of today's sexiest stars - Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, and Scarlett Johansson - are well known for their plump pouts.

For TG girls, full lips can DISTRACT from facial flaws like a big nose, square jaw, or long chin. It makes sense, doesn't it? The bigger your lips are, the smaller your other features will look in comparison.

So here's how to pump up the volume!

Get some cinnamon oil or peppermint oil (you've probably already got some in your kitchen) and add a drop or two to your favorite lip balm or lipstick. These ingredients increase blood flow to the lips, causing temporary swelling and a full, sexy pout. What fun!

Just be sure to dilute the oils since they can burn the lips if applied full strength. You'll also want to use plenty of moisturizers to combat dryness.

I know what you want...

You want to look like a hot, sexy woman with a body to die for! Breasts are fun, but they're only half the battle. You also need lower body curves!

Here are 2 secrets to having a killer butt and awesome hips:

1. Get a padded panty

A quick Google search brings up 142,000 results for padded panties, but beware: Most padded panties have padding on the cheeks and upper hips only.

Women's hips are naturally fullest BELOW the hip joint, not at the upper hip, so this looks totally unnatural in pants or a fitted skirt.

Make sure your padded panty has curves in the right places! (The best I've seen are by ClassicCurves.com, which offers custom made butt and hip enhancers.)

2. Make your own hip and butt pads

If you're the creative type, you can make your own hip and butt pads fairly easily. Just get some thick packing foam from a packing supply store and use an electric carving knife to cut out custom-shaped pads.

Two things to keep in mind:

A.) There should be a smooth transition between your body and the pads, so use a carving knife to taper the foam edges.

B.) If you're making hip pads, they should start at the upper hip and stop at mid-thigh for a natural look.

Keep the pads in place by wearing them underneath a tight pair of pantyhose.

To complete the look, suck in your gut with a waist cincher. Now you're rocking some SERIOUS curves!
