Sadly I can't see that happening at all. It would be more likely that it would be something I did while I was somewhere else, rather than others being out of the house. Also I don't think the results would be very good if it was just my fumbling attempts. I know there's a ton of make-up tutorials to be found online, but they all assume that you have at least some basic knowledge of the subject. I haven't bothered starting to learn at all because of the lack of opportunity.
I've been told that the RTrans did organise a make-up event or two. They had a fair bit of cosmetics donated to them from some local stores. It was quite a fun event from what Jo told me. Unfortunately, like with a lot of things, Covid put a stop on those events continuing. I don't know if they'd ever organise those again.
Going back to me taking those photos yesterday. I did get a bit of a rush putting the dress on yesterday. It was like a less intense version of what I experienced when I first did so last summer. Similar to that experience, I saw past all the male aspects of my appearance, and only saw the woman that I am. That doesn't feel like a concious act on my part either, it just happens naturally. As I said I love how I look in the mirror and wish I could share that with everyone here. Unfortunately the camera doesn't quite catch it. Also I don't think my brain plays quite the same tricks on what I see when I look at a photo of me, even though I look exactly the same. Does anyone else here experience anything similar when you look at yourself when you're dressed up?
