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.
