Ten
years of professional experience packed into a two-volume program
I've worked as an
entertainer, model, and makeup artist for over a decade, and I've shared everything
I've learned over the years in this video. I have also worked in high-stakes
business settings, interacting with professionals and the public, and I show
you how your makeup and skincare choices can be invaluable for your acceptance
as female in daily situations.
I focus on common
issues we face when starting out, with many examples of how masculine facial
features can be minimized with strategic use of makeup.
Our most ambitious
project so far is a major expansion of materials on makeup/skin care from tsroadmap.com.
A Becoming
You consultation goes beyond simple makeup application. It offers the
theory behind tricky cosmetics like contour and blush, illustrated with graphics
and demonstrations of application.
Our new program takes
you through the entire process, empowering you with the techniques you'll use
for the rest of your female life.
Time-tested program
This is the most
in-depth resource for women in transition looking for answers concerning appearance.
A Becoming You consultation doesn't stop at cosmetics--included are
sections with advice on the following:
Assessing and caring for your skin
Dealing with scalp hair loss and
hairline issues
Managing hair removal, narrated
by well-known hair-removal expert Andrea James
Clothing, shoes, jewelry and accessories
Dealing with the emotions and social
situations surrounding the process of transitioning
Lots of positive thoughts and encouragement
along the way!
For TS women,
by TS women
Most makeup instruction
available in the TG community is designed for the women who "dress up" for kicks.
That's cool, but we are focusing on being accepted as female in day-to-day life.
This is designed for women like you, who wish to have a smooth transition into
living full-time in mainstream society.
While the tone of
this course is upbeat and fun, I know this isn't just fun and games for you.
You're making a serious commitment to transition. You want to be accepted as
female in work and social settings, not just at home in front of a mirror or
in a dark bar on weekends.
We also know you are
working to save every penny for transition
expenses-- we've been there ourselves! Some sites out there are geared toward
selling overpriced prepackaged makeup kits to part-timers with a lot of disposable
income and no plans for a full transformation.We both know you need more than
a cookie-cutter approach. Your unique needs can't be shoehorned into some "one-size-fits
all" makeup collection. We're interested in showing you how to get the most
out of ANY cosmetic you choose, and how to choose colors and types of coverage
that meet your specific needs.
We know what you need
to get started, because we've had time to sort out what's good and bad, the
essentials and the unnecessary hype. This video will quickly pay for itself,
saving you time and money so you can focus on what's really important-- your
blossoming femininity.

other women are saying
Hi Calpernia!
Your (and Andrea's)
makeup DVD's are priceless. The real amazement is the amount of info
you two were able to fit onto them. Again, thank you for the hard work
you put into them.

Heya Callie,
Finally got around
to watching your makeup video last night. And it rocks, although calling
it a makeup video doesn't do it justice, as you cover quite a bit more.
Anyway, hugs and thanks for making the video.
