how do I get the mascara off?

[Deleted]

Ummm. I need to lighten this up before wife and eldest kid get home...

[Kelly]

Umm.. I use a little makeup remover - when I wear it..

[Laura J]

Yeah, makeup remover.. Maybe even soap and hot water.?

Paint Remover !
Go to Walmart in the cosmetic's section look for OLAY fresh effects make-up removal cloths . Small white bag 4'' X 5". Also in the Equate brand there is a white bag with original clean written in a blue strip across the bag .They both work great. Small wipes about the same size as a dryer softener sheet. Its always refreshing to help a rookie Hugs Patty

I used to start my grill with a little gasoline, that takes care of mascara problems once your eyelashes are gone in a blinding flash! 

Listen to Patty's advice she's a lot smarter about these things hon!

Nair. No eyelashes no mascara. Possibly no eyes also.

I personally like Neutrogena ultra-soft eye makeup remover pads. Come in a container similar to various acne remover pads, but unlike them, actually work.

Definitely the make up remover. If you do use soap and water you kind of got to work it in and if your not careful the soap will get in your eyes.

I've used petroleum jelly before on waterproof mascara. Also you should be able to use castor oil, olive oil, baby oil. You don't have to rub hard either, just work it in gently and then use soap and water to wash the oil away. Or you could use non waterproof mascara, it comes off easily without having to use removers, just soap and water. keep your eyes closed though, no one likes soap in their eyes.

This is great, will use for stealth male when needed. Getting tired of those times.

Was on when wife and kid got home, no negs. But I gotta hold up on any more presentation pushing.

I so dread relatives, I need my nails to fight physical dysphoria.

Interesting the blend is stronger right now, more fluidly in play, more of the natural so called male is present. An awareness, that part is the old pro actor, very strong personality.

So Nonbinary. Yet so girl in bed and body.

Thank god for this group, this family, I would be so screwed without all of you.

Its been a really long time since I've even used mascara, probably more than 3 years and a couple years since I last used eye liner. I've gotten lazy and doing makeup in a couple minutes is about my speed. Put a little smoother in the trouble spots, then very light foundation, then a little blush, then powder and lip gloss, then that's it for me these days. With my worsening eyesight and sometimes shaky hands, its best, lol.

Trinity. I have seen plenty of guys with long nails. About a year ago when I was still driving myself part time I delivered to a place and the dispatcher for the dock had some hellacious fingernails. I was tempted to ask him if he was trans. They were manicured and clean even. No polish though. But I have noticed that more guys are letting their nails grow a little longer than used too. Driving cross country and not playing music I would let mine grow and shape them. I think people will see you how more of how you act other than look.

I wish I could grow my nails again and can to a certain point and then it just makes my playing too sloppy and they get in the way. :'(But at least I have the hair though.

For some reason makeup needs for me publicly are eyes only. I flush anyway from meds, have no desire for lipstick. Even in face makeup I am Nonbinary. So gq publicly, so socially fluid.

It's wild.

Yet I don't think I have the nerve to ever show a full body transitioned presentation.

Maybe I should someday.

Genderqueer like that, woman with a beard, it's so jarring. And it's me.

Oh, to shave.

Not today.

I love nails....

Coconut oil is by far the best natural makeup remover, there are no chemicals and it is a superior moisturizer. I use it to counter dry skin that's brought on as a side effect of HRT. I recall JennyGirl and another really attractive post-op gal "ShawnaNinjaGirl" both recommended it highly.
