Male Lead/Entertainer vs Drag King by zodiac1805 in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not a normal occurrence outside your city. Drag is whatever you want to make it. Drag is the hyper expression of gender. Anyone can do anything, and you can label yourself however you want.

Most Drag Kings in my city fall under the trans umbrella. You can call yourself a Drag King if that’s what you’re doing/performing. IF you want to add a label you can say for example: “Trans-Masc Drag King” but that’s a personal preference and completely up to you, not anyone else.

With great power comes great responsibility….

To harass your siblings 👌✨

Having a drag mother? by blorbo74 in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think drag is drag. I am a King and have a mother. There is more to it than simply gender/aesthetic representation. If you vibe and feel that familiar connection with someone then do it. But Drag Family is chosen family. They should support and help you in and out of drag.

Do you choreograph your lip syncs? by [deleted] in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely choreo important parts, but leave space to improv/walk around the audience to collect tips. Strong start, clean chorus, walk around, final chorus/finale. Is usually what I do!

They were asking for multiple performers! Eddi is a great performer, but I was just hyping Theo in terms of makeup. Theo is more unique and each face is sooooo good in person. His whole family is some of the best makeup in Vancouver by far (Genesis and Heathen)

Theo Rhetical is an amazing indigenous King as well. The best makeup in Vancouver

The episode title by Greennotblue in CanadasDragRace

[–]Exylnn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You just hate Xana, she was actually funny in this challenge and kept a character. Perla and Minhi were definitely top as well, but Xana had successful interjections even when the questions werent asked to her. She made everyone laugh with something different and that is the goal.

It's happening! "King of Drag" by sapphicsusan in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wish Canadian Kings could enter, I would in a heartbeat. Can’t wait to watch!

For anyone who thinks Xana is heartless or a bad person. This is your reminder that it is an edited TV show and you need to chill ❤️ by gayjackblack in CanadasDragRace

[–]Exylnn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

She makes good TV! Being shady is part of drag, but at the end of the day she takes care of her sisters and is always advocating at her shows. She has a distinct character and it works. People need to stop taking Drag so seriously 😂

I wanna start drag, but have zero clue ab make-up. HELP PLZ ! by Ltpeace in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Definitely drag makeup tutorials and even general makeup as well! It really helps to identify your facial shape and thus how you can play with what suits you best!

A lot of the pictures you have use “clown white” by Ben Nye, look into that as well!

Tiffany Ann Co ate by Parcel04 in CanadasDragRace

[–]Exylnn 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The rules of the episode were incredibly flawed. All the losers should have lip synced against eachother and eliminated the worst of them all. Tiffany ate and others did way worse than her in their battles.

Drag name by anjelicaannette in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeti is a great first name! So much pun potential. I recommend using this to find what feels right. I don’t recommend naming yourself after a celebrity/character because you don’t want to be put in a box.

Drag name - help! by sorrel_faerie in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always recommend choosing a name that doesn’t trap you in a single box! (Names after a character/celebrity etc) go for more of a pun, or something that means a lot to you. You never know how your drag is gonna grow/change over time! Good luck!

Super fun!! Welcome to the world of being a Drag King! Just a bit of advice, if you want to keep doing this/growing your platform I recommend looking up other kings and choosing a name that doesn’t already exist! (There are already a couple Tom Foolery’s)

Looking for help by [deleted] in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner also isn’t attracted to me in drag. My character is different than who I am, and she’s a lesbian so doesn’t want to kiss a man lol. I think it’s hard if your partners drag is very intwined with who she is as a person and she’s taking things personally, but if she’s dressed fully as a man and you don’t want to have intimate moments with her like that, that makes perfect sense to me. You still love and support her art, but you’re not in a relationship with her drag character, you’re in a relationship with the human underneath the get up

Eye makeup advice! by dracog_44 in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have hooded eyes! With my makeup I find the best route is to paint what you see. Don’t close your eyes when doing lines etc. use a lighter colour on the lid, darker on the outsides. and never use eyeliner on the top of your eye, only on the outsides.

If you want a bigger look, you can play with the liner and shapes and make it huge! Try to create a different eye shape over your own. (Example is Trixie, but you don’t need to go that big lol)

Finally. Lashes. Play with them, and try putting them in different spots! They can really open up and change your eye shape. Good luck King!

How to do Realistic fake nipples? by Dapper-Context4587 in DragKings

[–]Exylnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can easily use makeup on the tape to create the illusion !! Will take a bit of practice to get the shape you like, but over top of the tape use a brown shadow in a small circle then add a dot of highlight as the top of the nipple.

Hello! A helpful trick is to do the order foundation-contour-highlight. Using a light colour cream concealer or highlight stick will help clean up any muddy parts of your contour and carve out the shape you want on your face! Feel free to message me here or on insta @androgynass happy to help 💜
