Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend [email protected] for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Most of us that wear make up have something we can't go without. Whether it's a trusted eyeliner brand, blusher, lippy or other we're often totally committed to it. What's yours?

Not sure it it counts as makeup but it is cosmetic, so I'm going to mention it anyway.

I can't go without my hair, lash and brow dye.

I lost a lot of pigment from my hair at a young age and have been dying it all (head, brows and lashes) back to my OG dark brown for a very long time now. Without the dye my hair is almost the same shade as my skin, and the complete lack of contrast it has with my face just looks really, really weird.

Dye is also great because living with chronic fatigue issues sucks and at least with dye, I can catch my reflection even on bad days and still see myself in it, as opposed the the undefined beige blob my head would be otherwise.
