Many crossdressers and transgender women tell me that they felt more confident about their looks when they were younger.
The truth is, you can look beautiful and feminine at any age!
While nobody can stop the clock, there are some easy ways to make yourself look younger if that’s your goal.
In this blog post, I’ll share 7 simple tips to enhance your youthful allure as part of your feminization transformation journey.
1. Choose the Right Hairstyle
Hair has a huge impact on your appearance. Long hair is undoubtedly feminine, but remember that excessively long hair can accentuate signs of aging.
Consider these styles for a fresh, youthful look:
- Shoulder length hair: Universally flattering and youthful.
- Bangs: Cute, youthful, and great for concealing forehead wrinkles.
DO: Shoulder length hair
DO: Bangs
2. Embrace Your Sensual Side
While you shouldn’t dress like a 20 year old, you definitely want to avoid looking like a buttoned-up old lady.
Here are some ways to add a bit of youthful sex appeal to your look:
- Wear high heels and playful stockings.
- Choose clothing in sensual fabrics like lace, velvet, and fur.
- Show some skin (tastefully, of course).

3. Get Enough Sleep
We all need our beauty rest, and as you age, the effects of sleep deprivation become more apparent on your face.
Under-eye bags, dark circles, and lackluster skin can detract from a feminine look, so make sure to prioritize sleep.
4. Add Some Color to Your Wardrobe
If you tend to stick with black or neutral tones, consider incorporating some bright colors into your wardrobe.
Vibrant colors add a youthful energy and vitality to your appearance.
5. Whiten Your Teeth
Teeth can subtly reveal your age – older teeth often appear yellow or gray.
Whitening your teeth can rejuvenate your face and take years off your appearance. Consider using affordable and effective products like Crest White Strips for tooth whitening.
6. Use the Right Skin Care Products
While most skin creams may not live up to their “miracle in a bottle” claims, there are specific ingredients that have demonstrated anti-aging benefits.
Combat wrinkles and firm your skin by using products containing ingredients such as:
- Retinoids
- Vitamin C
- Growth factors
- Peptides
- Hyaluronic acid
You can easily find affordable products with these ingredients at your local drugstore.
7. Smile
Yes, it’s a cliché, but it’s true – a smile is the quickest way to enhance your appearance.
Smiling elevates your cheeks and functions like an instant facelift. Plus, it makes you look more pleasant and approachable when presenting yourself as a woman.
Beautiful at every age

Lady you look spectacular! I am sure you have been told many many times.
At 73, and out in public since the 1960’s, we have been the pioners in CDing.
Enjoy being you.

Shoulder length hair does help and so does good makeup and as Lucille recommends -a smile. I’m 66 in this pic.
I was 62 in this pic. I love going out dressed as a woman. I enjoy learning as many things as I can to be more passable as a woman. Here’s a tip you girl may like. Before I get myself ready, I shave my face as close as I can.
Here’s something that helps my face feel and look better. After I shave my face I put original Neosporin on my face and it feels wonderful, it feels so good I don’t even want to take it off. I myself like to keep it on for 30 to 45 minutes before taking it off. It really makes my face look better after using a blade. I’ve been doing it for at least 5 years now and will never stop.
Girl,you just look fabulous! Great face/smile,great body,hips,beautiful legs,love the stockings and slingback shoes.
Just beautiful.At 73,/I have a few years on you…but still do my best when leaving the home. Been out in public since the 60’s, still love to doll up and go out 2-3x month

Oh thank you for thinking so….Hugs Teresa
I thank you for the awesome reply so I’m only a year older than you next month I’m wishing we could chat privately if you don’t mind to door if possible love Samantha
I’m so glad you look so beautiful at 62 in reality I’m jealous of you hun in a wounderful way I’ll be another year older next month and I shall say I’ll be past my 65 age but I hope I look as great as you when I get brave enough to venture out
Oh thank you for the kind words. My pic was from about 3 years ago. This Dec. I’ll be 66 wishing I was 26 again. So your birthday is in Dec. like mine….??? Oh wow, we are close in age and at the same time of the year. I love this site, Femme Secrets, I’ve been getting these great post for a long long. I’m wanting to try some new things with make-up as I’m getting older and I learn things from this site as well.. Also I hope you make that step on venturing out, it feels so good. Once you do it you don’t want to stop. I was around 20 my first time going out and I went to a small town near by to do it. Oh what a feeling I had that day and I still get excited just thinking about it. Well I’ll say bye now and thanks again for your kind words…..Teresa
You look beautiful…..I am 43-going on 44. Many trans women I think go to far with trying to look 20. Your hair is pretty.

Jessica, you have a very youthful look and I love the photo of you in that black top. Oh the cleavage with the peak of your white bra is so sexy!!
You are beautiful Jessica . Oh to have started when I was younger.
Love to all the gurls.

Well thank you started transitioning at age 28. It has its ups and downs. But really cheaper than some think.

40 years young…
Cute
Myself age 44. Almost 45 and yes it is a wig. Trying to grow my own hair out.
Hi – personally, I actually think as I age, I have become more feminine and passable. I am now retired, age 73 and pretty much now live my daily life as a woman. I love it! I’m lucky in that I am only 5’6” and about 150 lbs. I just try to base my fashion sense on how I see other women dress and behave. Basically, just try to blend in. I never have any issues in public. Always treated as a lady. Here I am the other day out doing my favorite thing, shoe shopping at Nordstrom’s!
