  • Spray On Blush!

      I recently tried a new product on the market, a “spray on blush”. It contains moisturizer which helps to blend… using a sponge. You can try this, or perhaps, use a cream blush. I have found, for skin over 40… always put a small amount of lotion, on a sponge and then apply your liquid foundation. For the TG woman, both the moi

  • Great Tips For Buying Your First Dressy Dress!

    1. Decide on Formality: Usually the event invitation will clue you into the formality of the event, whether it’s casual or black tie. But sometimes even that will cause confusion (short dress or long?) In general; the later in the day the event (after 6 p.m.), the dressier it will be. Long dresses are usually reserved only for formal occasions. While some fabrics are year-ro

      I recently spoke with a beautiful woman, who is 74 years old, and looks 50. She shared a few of her "natural, inexpensive" skin care tips. Here are a few ways to protect your skin, without spending any money! 1. Avoid soaking in your bathtub, or taking long showers--as this destroys the substances that keep skin cells intact. And, avoid bath oils in the bath-as the oil

  • TOP TEN TIPS for the Transgender Voice

        By Kathe Perez, Certified Speech-Language Pathologist President, Exceptional Voice, Inc.   WATCH OUT FOR DRYNESS.   Dry climates, excessive talking, poor intake of water or clear liquids, and too much caffeine (to name a few) will dry out the throat and vocal folds.  When the vocal folds become dry, they become stiffer, which makes it much harder to control your

  • Forget The Fear

    Many TG’s are afraid; afraid to get out of the house, and afraid people might find out that if they are a man, they have a feminine side.  Afraid their significant other might disapprove or leave them, and afraid they might lose their jobs and get fired. Our TG brothers often share many of the similar fears.
