Sally Hanson Body Spray
Hello All; So many of you have emailed me, interested in the instant wash off color tint, for your skin. It is by Sally Hanson, but I made a small mistake. It is spray makeup for your face and body. This is GREAT stuff ladies. If you want a tan for one night, or if you have discolorations on your chest or hands, just spray it on and rub it out. Comes out with soap and water, with no tale tale signs of orange streaking tannning lotion. I am trying, it just on my face…as a very light foundation. I will let you know how it goes!! Give it a try, just be sure and find a color that is close to your color or one color darker for a tan. Blend it into your hands and feet. Take a wash cloth and wash your hands and knees gently, and presto! Freckles, age spots, or pale white skin…Gone. I love, L O V E this product!
However, use a sun screen to not burn. Now, get some shorts on, or a wrap around sarong, and come to the beach here in Santa Cruz and have a California Girl Tan!
Voice Training & Michael Jackson Music
TG Voice Training-
Many of you may not know, but I suggest my serious CD clients….sing along with Michael Jackson music, in their cars. MJ created a perfect 200 Pitch, which is the ideal range for a Female voice. Regardless of what you have heard about MJ–he was one of you. How people could not see it, is surprising to me. The makeup, the hair, wigs, and wanting to have a baby. He was truly female inside. He was passionate in his life, and he loved his children, and he could dance better than any woman!
Get A CD of his, and hum the music…to find the vocal cord. in the BACK of your throat as this helps you speak (and sing) from the MIDDLE of your throat.
A must, is to purchase his last DVD “”This Is It.” This is the dress rehearsal, two days before he died. # 13 is fabulous to watch, his moves are very feminine. He walks with a girl, wearing High Heel Shoes, and he helps HER to walk! He is fabulous. Also, watch the Special Effects at the end, they are 3D. This would have been the only live show, with the special effects, screens, lighting and sound…to this level. But, mostly…. I watch his moves, his hands, he has the most wonderful movement, any woman or androgenous type guy could ever want. What a talent. What a special human being. He was my dance inspiration, for many years. Please just purchase This Is It, for $15.00 and enjoy and learn.

Round Silicon Breast Forms , New Shape
Happy Friday to all;
I was just speaking with Victor, from the Breast From Store….and they just began offering TG women the newest implant look…in breast…it is the ROUND breast form. It is less expensive than the previous shapes, and Victor reports that most of hhis TG women, love the “implant” look ; the round silicon breast form. For genetic women, they will blend in with your current breast also. So, check out
http://www.breastformstore.com or http://www.bfs.com
A great tip, for pale skin. I have fair skin, and I have tried every product on the market, from tanning beds, to tanning lotion. Most of the tanning sprays or lotion, tend to streak and turn orange. But, I have found a product I love, it washes off in the shower…and will only last one day or until you wash it off. Look for Sally Hanson Leg Spray, at your local drug store. The colors are buff for fair light skin ( also great to cover any discolorations on your chest, arms, legs, and even with a sponge on your face) to Medium or Dark. This product willl give you color and even out your skin tones, while giving you a light, medium or dark tan. Just be sure to wash your hands. But no worry, it will come off as soon as you need it off!
So, get out your shorts, or swim suits and tan your legs, arms, chest! Denae
Cross Dressers With Large Pores
Large Pores In Some Cross Dressers
Recently, I was working with a new client, who was a Cross Dresser. Many CD’s have large pores….as men do have larger pores, than women. Often hormones closes the large pores. However, for most CDs….hormones are not an option nor are they interested. The base (foundation) you use…is very important for large pores. Foundations and powders pool in the crevices, highlighting the wrinkles and large pores you’re hoping to conceal.
My suggestion: Look for a foundation with a touch of silicone (if you’re not applying primer first). Try Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX Foundation SPF 15 ($38, sephora.com). “The silicone helps it move with skin and sit on top of fine lines,” according to Wed MD. Apply foundation with a damp sponge, and press gently to keep it from sinking into creases and use wrinkle–filling concealer on any still-bothersome lines. Try Avon Anew Wrinkle Zone Line Smoothing Duo ($12, avon.com), which pairs a lightweight concealer with a separate loose powder you dab on to hold the coverage in place. Also, the Breast Form Store (for TG purchases) has a siliconn Gel Foundation. Call their 800 number, for additional help with selecting your shade, light, medium or dark. This product is a light silicon Gel, with a small amount of tint….for a very natural look…but is not a foundation.
If your looking for a heavier foundation, I like to use a liquid Silicon primer, first with any foundation. SmashBox silicon primer gives me a fresh, more dewey look for summer.
A great new product to add to your makeup table or makeup bag!
And, pick up a new bright spring color makeup bag! Many makeup counters, give them with purchase.
Medical Tape, To Pull Back Your Face (skin and/or wrinkles)
Hi; Another great tip, on products I use. Often, I like to pull back a clients facial and/or neck skin. IF you wear a wig, this is a perfect hidden tip…you can use…as it is hidden under your wig! Just purchase a simple wig cap as they are only (99 cents at any beauty supply, but not found at a drug store). A wig cap also keeps your wigs clean.
Pull off about 3 inches of tape, and place your starting side of the tape….to stick/hold onto where you have pulled back and up your facial skin…and then pull it, behind your first ear…pull to see how much pull of the skin…you can get in one piece of tape. Pull it up and over onto the wig cap as you press it down hold the tape down. I like to place two pieces over each other, so it is double strong…so do this twice…on each side of the face and neck.
I found of thie tape at a local drug store…such as Walgreens or Longs. It looks like scotch tape. It is by NEXCARE….FLEXIBLE CLEAR TAPE. This is very simple. Pull any excess skin up and start pressing it down..after pulling your skin back…hold the end…. where it will not show from under your wig. No oil, so tape does not lift. Pull the tape up, up and around onto the top of your wig cap. Now, go to the other ear, and repeat.
For your neck, you can pull your neck skin back, tape it and pull it around to the middle back of your neck. Do this twice, on top of the first piece of tape. Repeat on the other side. Presto, you look ten years younger, and more feminine. If you have to wear a wig, at least taping to the wig cap itself…is the one positive for wearing a wig.
If you do not wear a wig, you can pull your neck skin back, (but not facial) behind your ear and pull over to the middle of the neck. Apply another piece, so you’re double taped. Now, repeat on the other side of ear. Pull your hair down in the back….to cover the tape on the back of your neck!
This is not hard, many of you are afraid of trying this. It is very easy, and very inexpensive. And, now with this new medical tape…you don’t have to use wig tape…which IS expensive. So, don’t be shy. Give it a try. It may take a couple of times to really “feel” how tight…you can PULL the tape over. Again, no oil or foundation or the tape will lift. Instant face lift!! Instant neck lift. Again, locate a Beauty SUPPLY not a salon, as they have all types of hair, wig accessories. Buy several wig caps, as they are very inexpensive, and they keep the oil off your clean wig!
Wigs are finally in again, with the Hollywood crowd. Have fun, with wearing them for special outings!

Let me know how it works for you!
Try This New GEL. For Your Summer Foundation
Hello All; I wanted to turn you on, to a new product I found…and I love. It is a foundation…. but herewith the difference. Instead of being a thick creamy foundation…this product is a light…. silicon type Gel…with several light to dark skin tone shades. This would not work for the CD who has a thick beard. …which needs covering. However, for those who do not have a heavy beard area, give this new type of GEL foundation a try. It slides on…as a Gel not like a thick foundation, and it feels so silky, and glides away the dry winter skin.
If you like a very casual look for your face, and not a thick foundation mask look…. give this new type of foundation a try. I found this new product from the Breast Form Store, who
carries a wonderful makeup line, called Lady Burd. This Gel is called:
“Flawless Complexion Gel”.
The Breast Form Store, has a wonderful customer support, and will answer any questions you may have. They also have an excellent return policy, and work exclusively with the TG community. This “tinted” Gel…. comes in several shades…. a Light, Medium, and Dark, but you would need to call The Breast Form Store, to determine which shade of Gel is best for you. Don’t be afraid of the darker colors, as this product blends into the skin…leaving a “Glow”…more like a Tint…to your face. In addition, The BF Store has breast forms, hip pads, make-up, wigs, and wonderful bras.
I am planning on using this Gel, for this summer…for a light Tint on my bare skin…for the beach and for casual outings.
Take a look!
