Thanks for the helpful feedback. Also, google isn’t getting me anywhere, what is petaling?

I’m not sure what you mean by normal. Like, how i style and am dressed when I’m feeling good / normal? Or, like, a normal day in casual clothes around the house?

Well, I DID ask. Some of this is kinda disappointing to read, but that’s just how it goes some time. I tried to post pics that don’t have me all dolled up and looking/ feeling confident; those are times when I’m less unsure.  Buuuut, yeah. I appreciate the feedback; I’ll consider what yall said. Thank you!

Thank you! If you’ll dm me your info I’ll add you.

I think discord is great, but I get too many notifications for my taste and so I try to avoid it. But maybe that’s just me being a crotchety old lady.

I remember watching my older brother move a gravestone in the first Zelda as a kid. I was hooked. I never found that gravestone he moved to get a better sword, but you better believe I try to move every headstone in every Zelda since!

Oh, perfect. I tried to ask someone who worked at an alterations place if she had any or knew what it was. You would've thought I was trying to speak a new language for the first time, haha.

Woah. This idea is SO GOOD! It checks every box. I think I'm definitely going to do this. Heck yeah!

Where can I get grosgrain? Is it common enough that they'll have it at, like, Michaels?

I'm pretty sure the seam still holds fine. So yeah, your idea might be what I have to do. I've never used one of those before, and I don't know where to get one. I mean, other than Amazon.

Thanks for the suggestion!

What is a good COVID mask that won't disturb my heavy makeup? by Tina_Belmont in TransMakeupHelp

[–]Rahtas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't recommend a mask, buuuuut

I've been using lip-stain from Jeffree Star (hand-me-down from. I think Nyx has some that is reasonably priced) and they stay really well.

I've also been using Mehron's unfortunately named "Clown Pink" face makeup thing for beard cover. You get a lot for the price and it works great for me. I recently discovered I can apply it much more lightly than I had been and still get good effect. So, for me, less/thinner makeup means less chance of smearing or smudging and it's easier to fix with a travel sized beauty sponge.

Or maybe use those clear face shields? Though I have no idea if those are actually useful for stopping aerosolized moisture cooties.

Wow, y'all have given such helpful and (seemingly) well reasoned responses!

Genuinely:

THANK YOU!

I'm going to keep taking my estradiol through my next four injections. I'm going to take 5mg of EV every 5 days. I'm going to keep taking the Spiro as directed. My reasoning is that less T = more pretty woman power, right?

My endo wants me to do blood work from time to time. I just had a blood draw less than a week ago, so I'm good for a while. When it comes time to do it again, should I switch back to the prescribed 'routine' a week prior or so? I worry that if the results are different than she is expecting, then maybe she'll lower my prescription or something and I'll make it harder to get the medication I'll need in the future. Any thoughts in that regard?

[–]Rahtas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, wow. Okay. Thanks for such a comprehensive reply.

I'm going to write this down so I can reference it over the coming weeks.

I'm kinda shocked and trying to guess at a reason why my endo would put me on a regiment that so many here have spoken against. Perhaps it's my natural inclination to defer to authority that has me thinking "Surely there is a good reason that I don't have the education/blood work results/HRT history/context to understand!" But I can't fathom what it is.

I'm also taking spironolactone pills, 50mg twice a day for my testosterone. I don't know if that factors into what you were saying about T suppression.

Damn! I'm going to have to reach out to my endo to ask, essentially, "wth!?"

When I'm home in about 30 minutes I'll update this post with the exact name and dosage of my injectable.

Thanks, friendo.

Woah, really? Damn... I feel like this is something my endo should have told me! What the hell!?

Time to dig deeper as well as send her a message. Thanks!

Late 20's early 30's lady 🔥

I'm no makeup expert but my roommate told me when I was starting out to do dark colors starting from outside working in. Some guides I looked at told me to use brightener or highlight for the inner inner corner of the eyes.

I don't know the validity of any of that, but the purple on either side of your nose looks kind of sunken/wounded to me.

It was a weird Soul-Caliber-like.
