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!

Hello
I have been crossing over for over 45 years and I have bought and purged so many times to achieve my collection of things that covers all the recommended items I have. Of course make up gets changed and outfits get tired of being tried on. It takes about 500 dollars a year to keep a rolling stock of updates. I love every bit of my things and can’t imagine dressing without lots to choose from. I’m a large make 6 foot 2 and 225 I played football as young man in school and still work out. I have friend that’s a woman that is worldly and dressed exceptionally well. We will call her Liz. Liz loves me to send photos of my most recent shoots and then comments on my many looks. She helps me a lot to improve and how to become more and more feminine looking.
She knows I love her and her help. She is a true female beauty that I would just kill to look like. She is curvy and just looks so darn feminine. Anyways long story short my have to haves are heels, lipstick red of course, breast forms and bra, silky panties and my favorite auburn wig. With a little foundation , mascara and eye shadow I can wear my man clothes, slacks and button down dress shirt and look like my sister is wearing my clothes.
I do that once in a while for fun.
My favorite thing of all is to spend hours with my things, put on my best face, top, short skirt, heels and go out to buy my new most favorite scarf, bag or accessory. I love the feeling which is why we all do it to get that funny feeling in your tummy that comes with the risk of being a boy in girls clothing. I love all my things and I love being me, Carla Darling.
Just about every other suggestion mentioned here to improve on your femme appearance or manner has been addressed by Lucille in the past, at one time or another. Thank you Lucille for all you have done for us ladies, especially me. The two things that I think has help me the most is a very helpful woman who is my wife. She has guided me for many years and taught me how to dress and present myself as a lady. The other thing is I have had total beard removal by electrolysis and it is wonderful to be able to run to the grocery store in a casual outfit with only lipstick and maybe a little blush. Ladies, if you are really serious about your dressing and can afford it and stand the discomfort, go for it. It is liberating not to have beard shadow.
I have a lot of that stuff but I also have a Nubra which helps create cleavage for low cut dresses and shirts.
I’ve got all but perfume and color corrector. I don’t have a panty girdle but I do have a couple waist cinchers. I can be a bit sassy.
i have most of that except the color corrector. plus you need a good wig and jewelery. mascara eye liner etc helps
