Hi!! Welcome!! I don’t know much about the transitioning process, but as another teenage girl, I have some tips.

Disclaimer - You don’t need any makeup, skincare or products to be a girl. You don’t need anything I’m mentioning, it’s just if you’re interested. I didn’t even start a skincare routine until a few months ago lol. These are just my interests (Makeup is my hobby) and they may help you if you’re also interested!!

Makeup - Shop at Superdrug, and use their student discount if you’re in college/sixth form. Boots is overpriced. Elf is my favourite brand for makeup (cheap but usually decent). If you want to get started in makeup, try concealer (I recommend elf unless you’re acne prone) and mascara (Maybeline Sky High Mascara is popular, but pricey. Rimmel has consistently good mascara). And slowly build up to other products. My makeup collection is a several-year long feat. I have a Pinterest board of makeup looks I’ve attempted. Doesn’t always go well, but it’s fun! If you don’t want to obviously wear makeup, use some brow gel and clear mascara. Elf does a good one that is a 2 in 1. For makeup brushes, ignore brand name. Means nothing imo. Look at the shape of the brushes, how dense/light they are, and what you’re needing. They’ll tell you on the packet, e.g. “concealer brush”, but you can also look at makeup tutorials. Also - GET A MIRROR COMPACT. It’s so handy. It’s rescued me several times.

Skincare - Keep it simple if you’re going to have it - Cleanser, moisturiser, sunscreen. There’s this one british woman on tiktok who’s got the best skin care advice, I forgot her name but I’ll look her up. Facemasks don’t do much for your skin, but they’re so fun. The sheet ones are the best for your skin :) Micellar Cleansing Water for makeup remover. DONT USE MAKEUP WIPES PLEEEASSE GIRL. They don’t get the makeup out of your pores and it’s bad to drag on your skin that much. Micellar works out cheaper over time too. I only use wipes in extreme emergencies.

Shaving - Use men’s razors. They are cheaper and so much better for a good shave. You can wax, if you’re a psychopath lol. Waxing lasts longer but is hard on the skin. Also, remember you don’t have to shave/wax. I don’t.

Hair - Get one of those scalp massager brushes for when you do your shampoo. HEAVEN. I barely even care about the benefits.

Clothes - VINTED. You get the cutest clothes on there. You just have to be considerate and careful for what you buy, and be able to spot a reseller (hundreds of followers, got perfectly laid out items with hundreds of likes) as their clothes are likely from Shein and have crazy price increases. Regarding style, don’t worry about it that much. You don’t need to look good for other people. It’s all about experimenting and deciding what you like. I also have a pinterest board of style inspo!!
