Are you ready to reveal your most fabulous feminine self?
If so, the right tools are a must! Some of these items are obvious, but others are essentials you might not have thought of.
Keep reading to discover 10 must-have items for your male to female transformation:
1. Breast Forms
Breasts are arguably the most feminine part of a woman’s body. Unless you’re blessed with your own curves, breast forms are essential. (Of course, you’ll also need a cute bra to put them in!)
2. Color Corrector
A visible beard shadow can be a big challenge to putting your best face forward.
While you might be tempted to cover imperfections with heavy concealer, it never looks natural.
Instead, invest in a pink or red color corrector to first neutralize the tone of your beard shadow. This allows you to use less makeup and gives you a more natural and feminine look.
(Note: Check out The Makeup Magic Program to learn pro techniques for concealing a beard shadow, feminizing your face with makeup, and much more.)
3. Panty Girdle
A panty girdle is a great multi-purpose garments that trims your waist, flattens your belly, and smoothes your overall shape.
Panty girdles come in brief and long leg styles:
- Choose the brief style to wear under short skirts.
- Opt for the long leg style to wear under pants and longer skirts.
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:
- 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
Bare legs might be trendy now, but in cooler months, nothing beats the polished look of hosiery. Classic black pantyhose or tights are a style essential.
If you’re going to wear pantyhose, be sure to choose the sheerest hose possible and only wear jet black pantyhose. (Avoid grey-black and brown-black tones.) Or wear 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 – especially when she is wearing lipstick. Lipstick is a must-have item that will instantly make you look more feminine and attractive.
7. Classic Pumps
Shoes say more about you than any other accessory. You can’t go wrong with a pair of classic black pumps. They’re sexy, feminine, and work well with many types of clothes.
Think you are too tall for heels? Even a 1″ kitten heel has impact, so there’s a pump out there for everybody.
8. Moisturizer
Due to higher testosterone levels, males generally have rougher skin than women do. Get a facial moisturizer and use it daily, (whether you are en femme or not).
Moisturizer makes your skin look smoother and helps your makeup go on better and last longer.
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
Finally, the most important thing you can possess is a great attitude!
People treat you the way you expect to be treated – so be as femme and fabulous as you want to be. You deserve it, girlfriend!

Hi Lucille,
This a great “Top 10” list. I think that those of us that have learned feminization skills through trial and error can agree with nearly all of it. When I began my journey in 2007 I thought I was a crossdresser. Over time I learned that there was more to it than wearing ladies apparel, make up and a wig. I realized that emotionally, psychologically and sexually Melissa was who I am. Like most of us I’m work in progress. I’m currently working on the physical part of my transformation. One item that I’d add to this list for someone starting out would be to invest in a quality wig. Unless your gifted with natural hair that you can style a wig will enhance your feminine panache and help give you the confidence to meet the world head on and not look back at your former self!

Lucille, I have some points, these are belt shorts, black stockings, lipstick and other cosmetics, other necessary things I will possibly buy soon. Sanny
Some of these items are fine for a cross-dresser or a drag queen, whose objective is mostly to have fun. But for transgender women who are simply trying to live their day-to-day lives, the key is blending in, not make one’s self stand out *more*. Heels? Personally, I’m 5’8″ so heels (even pumps with a modest heel) bring me to 5’10” or 5’11” (and there are some gals who are approaching or well over 6′ tall), so heels end up making us so tall that we draw attention to ourselves. There are some great flat or low heels (including ballet flats, which are very “in” right now), that don’t add much height, look good, and most importantly, blend in, as a lot of genetic women wear them.
