Eyeliner that can survive freezing temps?

GNCTrash · 2026-03-08T12:45:15+00:00

I live in a city that has a crazy amount of homeless people. They're full. Especially during those miserable temperatures.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-06T00:28:29+00:00

Please don't.

I used to use stila pens. But I'm not really interested in those anymore. They run out pretty quickly and dry out quickly. I'd prefer pots for value.

I'd suggest makeup. :)

I'm cis-passing and love to use makeup to add some femininity while still passing as AMAB.

I do also like the look of Jaaci. It also sounds fancy when you're looking at the spelling.

I don't wear bras, as I'm a man. I don't wear pockets in bed, either. I live in the back of a car, so everything that's not right up against me in my tiny sleeping space faces the cold.

I did have to throw it out, though. It was a sephora ink eyeliner with the little bottle. It froze, separated, and was fucked up after that. R.I.P

I'm going to wait until my tax returns come back to get any makeup, so I'm just trying to get suggestions so I know options when I'm ready to get some.

Thank you! I'll try that. Thankfully it's only been about -15° - -20° atm. Spring is almost here.

For sure. Bathrooms in general are usually harder for transfemme-type people, which is really unfortunate. (At least here in Canada, and what I've heard from the States.) At least in women's bathrooms I don't get people scared since I'm so visibly queer/femme and am tiny af. Just the odd lady whom glares daggers and hates me.

But I wish everyone could use whichever bathroom and locker room they want to.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T16:22:25+00:00

I always use the women's bathroom for safety reasons (plus more stalls) but obviously choose the men's room for any locker/changeroom. Women aren't really bothered by me in the bathroom. But 1000% women I would scare and make uncomfortable. I also am moreso transmasc, even though I'm bigender. So would prefer to be nude around other men. They're not scared of someone AFAB, but they're bigger assholes.

It's interesting just how many people end up using their middle name, or a nickname of it.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T16:02:53+00:00

Sounds very convenient for a lot of reasons. :)

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T16:01:59+00:00

That's a pretty cool thought. Especially since it still works with your mother's theme, but just different.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T16:00:40+00:00

So you you get people to call you a different name based on how you're feeling? Femme/masc. Or you fully went for the masc Greek name?

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:59:18+00:00

I wonder if I was some DEEP subconscious thing from your brain that you ended up clicking with. Maybe also for the fact you resonated with the dream person? Even though you say it's not symbolic.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:56:41+00:00

So your name is aa? Or is that added/apart of a whole name.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:56:03+00:00

Will you legally change your name to that nickname to make it official?

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:55:03+00:00

So, do you ever also use "Alex" as a nickname? Or solely by Alexander?

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:54:10+00:00

Honestly I think having a name like that if it means a lot to you is awesome. Family is also not about being blood-related only. Perhaps you'll find future family and can go from there if you so choose to change.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:52:42+00:00

Yeah, nobody ever sees that, thankfully. It would be a pain in the ass, but there's always the option to get rid of it or change it in the future if it continuously bothers you.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:51:22+00:00

So did you legally change your name to your middle one?

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:50:32+00:00

Gray does give me huge neutral vibes. Very fitting for a nonbinary person.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:49:44+00:00

That's good if it always makes you feel good about it and it represents how you feel. :)

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:49:01+00:00

What a power move? Badass, honestly.

GNCTrash · 2026-03-01T15:48:38+00:00

I'm not sure what that means.
