When was your first time with makeup

Hmm I didn't put make up on untill about a year ago when i was 21-22 years old. I wish I had done it sooner.

I knew I was TS since about age 12 but I never really tried makeup until last September. I went out and bought a makeup kit that included eyeshadow, blush, powder foundation and lipstick. Also picked up some eyeliner and mascara. By today's standards I looked like a clown but I saw a glimmer of potential to actually look like a passable GG in my face. To tell you the truth I probably would never have continued if it weren't for that spark of potential.

Makeup is my main thing now. When some people have only a limited amount of time to be en femme they usually put on woman's clothes and don't do makeup but I'm the opposite. I do my makeup and don't dress. I'd rather look like a woman who is cross-dressing (in my drab clothes) than a boy who is cross-dressing.

my 1st time with makeup was when i was probably 6-8 dont really remember, but it was my moms lipstick.

still trying to learn how to use makeup now, i am pretty bad at it. and practice makes perfect, but i cant seem to find time to practice.

I guess i really didnt start messing around with makeup till i was in junior high.

I seem to remember Hallowe'en when I was about 14, and also initiation into high school. I don't really count those as being legit, though. First time I tried it on my own, with the intent of looking feminine, I was about 21 or so. My gf at the time came home early, and I came perilously close to getting busted. :eek:

My mom's dark red lipstick!...:o..My fascination with lipstick has only grown over the years....no doubt enhanced by being a lifelong Chapstick user.....

When I was very small (2-1/2 or 3), my mom would sometimes put nail polish and/or lipstick on me for the fun of it (her fun, that is!). She even occasionally took me over to a friend's house or out shopping. My experiments on my own were pretty much limited to lipstick until I was in my very late teens, in college, and I started wearing eye makeup most of the time -- liner, shadow, mascara, even false lashes sometimes.

Fast forward 35 years, and I have permanent lipcolor, eyeliner and shadow, and still wear lashes every once in awhile. In fact, nothing much has changed since 1977! :)
