I started with mascara and got the same kind of feeling and reactions. Been thinking of trying eyeliner next :)

:3 that was my comment im glad its working out for you!
fun, I love eyeliner but I only wear it for special occasions these days - I look forward to having more days in the future when I can focus on my makeup.
Your post obviously fits here, but you might also checkout !femboy@lemmy.blahaj.zone too. 😊
Oh I certainly will check out that one :) Thank you
Genuinely, good for you! It's amazing how small things can make us feel more like ourselves. I know lip gloss is a huge one for me, I don't know what it is, but I just feel more feminine.
Best of luck on your journey of self-discovery, and remember that whatever lays at the end of the path, you're valid and supported in it. :3
Lip gloss will be on my list to try and thank you for the support :)
Congrats! Hope you enjoy the process of finding who you are!
It has been fun so far :) Thank you!
nice
Very nice indeed hehe
Yeah, good for you! It's nice to be noticed. Plus eyeliner rocks.
Have fun exploring!
I certainly will be. Thank you so much!
Yay! Super happy for you!!
Eyeliner is fantastic, I love wearing it too! I recently bought some eye shadow and lip stuff from SugarPill, excited to wear it when it arrives! Best of luck with your journey, we're glad to have you!
Eye shadow is the next thing to add in and work on :) Happy to be here as well!
