Are you excited to embrace your fabulous female self? Having the right tools is key!
While some transgender / crossdressing supplies are obvious, there are important items you might not have considered that can help you look and feel your best as a woman.
In this blog post, I share 10 must-have essentials for your male to female transformation journey.
1. Breast Forms
Breasts are arguably the most feminine part of a woman’s body.
If you don’t possess your own natural curves, then investing in a pair of breast forms is a must for any crossdresser or transgender woman. (Of course, you’ll also need a cute bra to put them in!)
2. Color Corrector
Dealing with a visible beard shadow can be a major challenge in putting your best face forward.
Although it may be tempting to camouflage it with thick concealer, the result never appears natural.
Instead, invest in a pink or red color corrector to help neutralize the tone of your beard shadow. This enables you to use less makeup and achieve a more natural and feminine appearance.
(Note: Check out The Makeup Magic Program for expert tips on concealing a beard shadow, using makeup to feminize your face, and so much more!)
3. Body Shaper
A body shaper is a versatile garment that offers multiple benefits, including waist trimming, belly flattening, and overall shape smoothing.
Body shapers come in a variety of styles. Opt for a brief style to wear under shorter skirts and a thigh-length style for pants and longer skirts.
To feminize your lower body, look for a body shaper with hip and butt padding to create the illusion of curves.
4. Perfume
The right perfume can make you feel irresistibly feminine!
The secret is to choose a fragrance that matches the qualities you want to express. Here are some simple guidelines:
- Go for floral scents if you want to express your romantic side.
- Choose oriental or woody scents if you want to bring out your inner seductress.

5. Black Pantyhose Or Tights
While bare legs may be fashionable, there’s nothing quite like the sophisticated appeal of hosiery. Classic black pantyhose or tights, in particular, are a style must-have.
When opting for pantyhose, choose the sheerest hose available and stick to jet black. Avoid shades like gray-black or brown-black.
Alternatively, you can go for opaque tights for a more casual and youthful look.
6. Lipstick
Studies show that a woman’s lips are considered the most attractive part of her body, particularly when accentuated with lipstick.
It goes without saying that lipstick is an essential item that will instantly make you look more feminine and attractive.
7. Classic Pumps
Shoes say more about you than any other accessory. When it comes to making a statement, you can’t go wrong with a timeless pair of black pumps.
Classic black pumps exude sexiness, femininity, and work well with many types of clothes.
8. Moisturizer
Due to higher testosterone levels, males tend to have rougher skin compared to women.
That’s why it’s essential to incorporate a daily facial moisturizer into your routine, whether you’re presenting as your feminine self or not.
By using moisturizer regularly, you can achieve smoother-looking skin and enhance the application and longevity of your makeup.
9. Little Black Dress
The little black dress is a wardrobe staple every crossdresser and transgender woman should own. A simple black dress in a flattering length can go from day to night and will never go out of style.
10. Attitude
Lastly, the key to it all is your attitude – and it’s absolutely crucial!
The way people treat you often reflects how you expect to be treated. So, embrace your femininity and radiate fabulousness with confidence. You deserve nothing less, girlfriend!

I am really happy to read the comments of people who are sailers on the same boat. I too have almost all the items mentioned in the mail. I am a mail by birth but blessed with most of the features of woman. I have very large breasts with perky nipples hence no need to wear breast forms. I wear 42” D cup bra,two sizes higher than my wife. My wife is very supportive and initially she use to select bra for me.One of the greastest advantage is my wife really likes my breasts. Due to large size of breasts I need to wear bra always and I am not ashmed of it. Only thing is my nipple protruding through the bra if I wear thin bra. As I wear bra,my breasts are not sagging. It is standing out and bounce if I wear a loose bra. I use to wear T shift and bra and breasts and visible some times people smile at me. Even ladies use to tell my wife that she should be proud of such a husband. Your advise always helped me to achieve feminine status.

Hi Lucille,
I have most of the things you listed, LBD, Black Tights and Pantyhose, Shapewear,Lipstick and Black High Heel Pumps (shoe freak), so lots of shoes. I’m fortunate to have been able to develop my own breasts, 38C and they look just like natural female breasts, I’m so happy! In regards to attitude, I keep working on my confidence, getting better everyday. I’m much more confident presenting as female while out shopping, especially at Macy’s and other major stores.
Just want to say your really appreciated, I think you are awesome 🙂
Love Ya,
Kristin
salut.
merci infiniment pour vos conseils fabuleuses.
moi j’ajoute le sac à main et des boucles d’oreilles.
mais l’attitude me manque à près de 35 pour cent; car avec le souci de se faire attaquer ; je reste tout le temps préoccupée par ma sécurité.
amour.
Bonjour, belle,
Peut-être que vous pouvez obtenir des conseils de l’application de la loi sur la façon de vous protéger. Je porte du gaz poivré et une lime à ongles en métal chaque fois que possible, mais à 1 mètre 88 et 100 kg, je doute que je n’aurai jamais besoin non plus. Ne laisse personne te prendre ton esprit.
Tout le meilleur,
Nikki
I’m still in the first stages of transfiguring,due to lack of funds.I have started taking hormones and have some increase in my breast.Now I’ll work on my voice.Going to find a shemale club to get some pointers.
I have the LBD, the heels, and a lipstick. I need the brief style tummy control underwear, and am now going to look for and try the color corrector so. I also need to pick up some jet black pantyhose as I used to always wear either suntan, or a dark smokey beige tone. Need to work on my attitude too, as I am still very timid about going out, even at night.
Thanks,
Chart
this is the first time I’ve heard of a color corrector-sounds like a good ideal though-
the only other thing I haven’t got on the list is the outgoing attitude—
need a girlfriend in London Ontario to teach me–

I have everything you listed except the attitude! actually I’m lacking confidence and I get nervous when I venture out dressed up. Is there a cure fo this?
You look absolutely beautiful! And I understand your situation. Raise your confidence. I really wish I was as pretty and convincing as you.
Love JD
You will get the confidence but need to take the steps outside and have every one looking at such a pretty lady like you !
