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. Any woman-identified person under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is welcome.
  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 Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.

Sounds great. I still shave in summer, but that's because it's cooler. Our fur should thin, in hot weather. ;) I've switched to shea moisture soap but I like the goat milk when I can get it. I mostly use the "no poo" method for my hair, sometimes with a little honey in the acv rinse, sometimes I use Shea Moisture conditioner, but I mostly do coconut oil with a "do rag" for a deeper conditioning.

No makeup. Occasional moisturizer, non-petrol. Witch hazel and mud mask for pores, sometimes steam with coconut oil for deep moisture.

Mineral salt in water for d/o. I'll have to try the alum and other tips you mentioned. Thanks so much!

I can't afford the shea stuff here, sadly. (It's an import and not a cheap import like the Aleppo stuff.) :(

I think your "mineral salt in water" may be another way of saying "alum crystal in water" honestly. It has the same ring for sure.

Ah well, I am sorry; those things may very well become expensive for me, as well. I'm not sure, about the mineral salts. I have poured them into another container so I can't see the exact ingredients.

I did some checking around. When in the context of deodorant, "mineral salts" almost always means "potassium alum" which means you're using the same stuff I am.

Good to know, thanks so much for doing the legwork for me! <3
