Transgender model Jess on changes in appearance and cosmetics
FOR THE FACE "HEAD" we study the contents of beauty cases, dressing tables and cosmetic bags of girls of interest to us - and show all this to you.
Pro makeup
I use cosmetics at a minimum. First, I appreciate punctuality, and femininity, which implies the use of cosmetics, and punctuality in my understanding of things are poorly compatible. Secondly, I protect my skin: I think that the frequent use of cosmetics is old, but I always get less age than I have. It turns out, the more cosmetics, the more it will have to buy to hide defects and care for the skin. And thirdly, I am afraid to make up and look bad. Sometimes I look at how the girls look on the street, and often find that - to my inexperienced look - they are made up badly. Since they began to learn the art of make-up before me, with the help of mothers and girlfriends, and they are not good at it, so far to me. I only sum up my eyes and paint my lips with lipstick or gloss. I almost never use mascara: long eyelashes make up look strange and rub against glasses.
But stage makeup I adore; here you can swing and not be afraid to "bust." I thicken my eyes, put shadows on it, emphasize lips. The viewer from the audience must distinguish facial features from afar, and any shortcomings from afar will not be noticeable. The nail polish I use is barely noticeable - in case I have to transform into a male image. The household is on me, and although I do some of the work with gloves, the lacquer does not last long, but I constantly repaint laziness. In addition, I have pets, rats, when they communicate with me, they bite my nails a little and gnaw varnish.
About changes in appearance
I never used male cosmetics. I have beautiful skin, not counting the problem area around the mouth (I need to shave a couple of times a week) and wrinkles on my forehead. Everything else is good. Skin and hair, I owe first of all to hormonal drugs, which I take the seventh year. They are simply contraceptive; they are perfect for me because they contain synthetic estrogen, which is strong in action, and an anti-androgen component that suppresses the male hormone.
About nutrition and body shape
I have been dancing since my early childhood and regularly go to the gym. I also like to run, but now I have problems with my knee, so I try not to burden my legs. I like to sit in the bathroom almost in boiling water, everyone is surprised how I can withstand such hot water. With nutrition is simple: glory to the male metabolism, I have it left - I can eat anything, as much as necessary. But I try to exclude junk food, do not take alcohol, do not smoke, which also probably affects the appearance. Somehow I had a fasting day “the opposite” (I was throwing a cake and meat), then the director of the agency called me in the evening with the words “Tomorrow you are shooting in the morning”. I was sitting with my stomach full, but I didn’t worry - I knew that I would be slim again in the morning.
In a sense, my pets, rats, have taught me to eat right. They, like people, are omnivores, but they also eat all kinds of rubbish with pleasure. Since I am responsible for them, I try to feed them with cereals, vegetables and fruits. Before they appeared, I did not have the habit of eating porridge, but after the rats I also began to cook and there are all sorts of useful things.
