A storm began to brew around the perimeter of Starlight Mansion, and a tornado ripped through all in the size of one petite keyboardist—Kimber Benton! After enjoying a beautiful afternoon lunch together, Jerrica and the Holograms set forth to their rehearsal room, adjacent their workout room, to come up with a few ideas for a new hit. Aja mentioned that the song on the flip side of their next single should be uptempo, but Kimber disagreed and proposed a slow ballad instead. Shana and Raya agreed that a faster beat and a stronger rhythm would sell better, and then Jerrica declared that Kimber was outvoted four to one. The fact that her sisters refused to listen to the lyrics she wrote began to take its toll. Now transformed with the help of her red star earrings, Jem continued that the matter was just not up for discussion and their next album was already past due. Then suddenly, while jamming out to an instrumental, the girls changed their minds and decided that a good love song would be best. At that point, the jam session had reached new heights with Aja and Shana strumming away on both guitars, Jem shuffling from side to side with some trendy dance moves, and Raya banging furiously on drums! Still, Kimber felt invisible. After a brief exchange of words with Jem, the pressure cooker exploded the second Aja remarked that she's a kid and that they have authority over her! Instead of giving her sisters a good what-for, Kimber reflexively kicked her keyboard over, knocking the high-priced machine on its back, and stormed out of the session! Seeking solace from the storm, she soon found herself at the popular performance night club, The Scene. With her back to the bar and eyes at the stage, Kimber embraced her surroundings and began to drown her sorrows in one of the most peachiest, extra thick milkshakes on either side of California! Then a sudden racket from the right grabbed her attention, so she turned her head to check it out. To her surprise, it was Misfits keyboardist, Stormer Phillips, who had arrived a second after she turned to the stage. The two began to hurl insult after insult with Stormer asking if Jerrica allowed her out after 4:30 pm, followed by Kimber advising her to go play in traffic! Then, out of the blue, the two were ambushed by the hostess to perform on stage for their fans. Because of their fame as Pop/Rock stars, Kimber and Stormer found the transition to perform together pretty easy and less chaotic than working with their respective bands. Together on stage, yet far apart, the two stars couldn't refrain from snubbing each other while performing, unbeknownst to them, their first hit, “I'm Okay!” Later that night, in her room while perched at her vanity mirror, applying an ample amount of pink eyeshadow and fluffing her hair, Kimber had finally found a moment of peace and privacy until Jerrica walked in and questioned her silence. As she continued to brush her layered mane, Kimber exclaimed that she had nothing to say and didn't want to deal with unwarranted drama. The conversation veered to the left when Jerrica began to dig deeper with questions regarding her whereabouts and destination. Once again, Kimber responded defensively, hopping off her seat and standing face to face with Jerrica while claiming that her big sister didn't really care about her! She then rushing out to the walkway where she was greeted by Stormer. In the weeks to come, Kimber and Stormer embarked on a musical career together, eventually kicking off a mini tour and recording a few songs for their new album. But it was only a matter of time before Jem and the Holograms discovered the truth about her disappearing act. All of the pieces fell into place one night while the band was watching the Lin-Z Pierce show with her two guest stars, Kimber and Stormer, who were discussing their new sound and promoting their debut album “Back to Back!” Now overly concerned about her younger sister's antics, Jem, along with the Holograms, attended her concert with the hope of persuading her to open her eyes and realize the truth about her new partner. The Misfits were also in attendance and, surprisingly enough, AGREED! Kimber, scantly dressed, stood her ground and screamed out that she no longer wanted anything to do with the Holograms, and Stormer had the same conversation with her bandmates as well! Unable to bear another second, Jem gave up and walked off stage. The following morning while rummaging through Kimber's belongings, Jerrica found an ironclad contract that claimed if her sister failed to produce a hit record, then her half of Starlight Music would go directly to the scheming record executive of Misfits Music, Eric Raymond! A second later, Kimber casually walked in the room dismissing all doubt and assured Jerrica that she would have a hit record. Later that day, the two famous keyboardists were faced with the hard truth concerning their joint contract while at Flash Recording Studios. As the two musicians made their way to the recording room, they were met by a conversation between Eric and his recording engineer who were both discussing plans over the phone to prevent the release of their debut album! It was at that moment when reality slowly sunk in and Kimber and Stormer soon realized that finishing their album would take more effort than they anticipated. Several days later, Kimber arrived solo at the studio to complete the voice session, and also to find Stormer so that she could lay down her voice track, but she received a handwritten note instead and quickly learned that her gal pal had in fact rejoined the Misfits! In shame, Kimber was forced to visit Eric with bad news regarding her partner's departure, and revealed that she couldn't finish the record without her help. Her misfortune was Eric's gain as he began to grin like a Cheshire cat at the possibility of reclaiming his share of Starlight Music and adding on to his business empire. With his fists clenched, he prepared himself for the hostile takeover! Just then, his office door flung open and that smile of his cracked in two, when Stormer entered with the master copy of their entire album. The superstar sweetheart made it her duty to prove that their friendship didn't occur in vain and that she really cared about her good friend. Dazed and amazed, Eric slammed on the breaks and reminded the girls that unless the record's a hit, Starlight Music Studios would belong to him! So, with Stormer at her side, Kimber drove back to the mansion and explained the situation to Jerrica, along with a heartfelt apology for her attitude. At first, the album stalled on the charts, but thanks to some clever marketing from Jem, Aja, Shana and Raya, their LP skyrocketed to Number One on Billboards Top 100, and went on to double platinum success with a full article in Ramblin' Rock, Variance, Rock Age Weekly, and Cool Trash Magazine! While working together, Stormer and Kimber learned a lot about each other, and even more about life!
I haven't really had the time to do a brief review on the last two gift sets that I acquired several months ago, so I figured I'd go ahead and begin with Kimber's gift set. Initially, I was not expecting Integrity to create this version, but then again, that's the whole point. Both versions are greatly appreciated and both outfits are two of my personal favorites! For this set, Kimmy has switched her dark red hair color to fluorescent red, and boy does it shine! The bright hue looks incredibly stunning with her French-colored skin tone and brightens up her high-style image! Just off the record, those episodes from Season One, particularly “Starbright, Part One”, “Hot Time in Hawaii”, and “The Princess and the Singer”, where her skin appears in tan tone are, in my opinion, some of her best, most stunning appearances in the show! I've always thought that she looked as though she had spent some quality time basking in the sun, an idea I'm sure the animators conceived and incorporated into the show. The pink tones of her makeup smolder from every angle of her face and truly define her look in the show, starting with her light blue eyebrows, both of which sit fine against her skin tone and give off that relaxed “vacation” look. Maybe she wanted to switch it up for Summer and simply went wild with the eyebrows tweezers lol! Love 'em! Kimber was conscious of her beach tan, when she chose the colors for her eyes, opening her ultra shimmer eyeshadow palette and settling with a heap of pink “Outrageously Outré” shadow to cover her brow bones, all the way around to the outer sections and landing just above her cheeks! Her blue “Shellshock” eyeshadow shows up real thick on her eyelids and sparkles under her tear ducts as well. One basic shade is never enough for Kimmy, so she embellished the creases of her eyelids with a three-dimensional combination of pink “Curiosity” eyeshadow, and a thin, but bold line of red dust in “Private Number!” Yes, her cosmetics are smokin'! With her shadows set in place, she then ran her black “Beautifully Bankrupt” eyeliner across the top and bottom of both eyes, then winged it out—Egyptian style! Using her expensive blush brush, she blended her hot pink “Tunnel of Love” rouge on her cheeks just right, and then out came her extravagant tube of glittering pink lipgloss, in “Pink Patagonian Panther”, a high-class brand of gloss that even Jem doesn't own! Kimber's outfit is the talk of the town, especially in local fashion stores where every teen girl is desperately searching high and low for at least a knockoff version! The first piece is her shiny yellow dress shirt with gold metallic designs. Next, her matching shiny yellow pants and shimmering gold heels. I can't get over this outfit. The details are impressive! It appears as though Kimmy had a blast abusing her VISA during a long and well-deserved shopping spree at New Wave Neiman's! The accessories in her collection are terribly expensive and are protected by her bodyguard while stored away in a secret compartment inside her dressing room. She has a long, three-layered gold chain necklace with gold beads, a shiny gold belt with gold buckle, and two double-studded gold earrings!
Next up is the sexy, the sultry, Bad Kimber! Dare I admit that I am hypnotized by the sight of her fiery orange ratted do? I do lol! WoOoW! What a major change from her signature red hair! Once again, Integrity's interpretation of her bad-girl alter ego is remarkably similar to her 15 second appearance, in “The Bands Break Up!” From the most minuscule details to those that are in your face, the members of the Design Team rarely ever leave one stone unturned with the Jem collection, and her makeup is further proof of their consistent success. The end result looks rather drastic, but that's to be expected with this doll. Originally Synergy's creation, Bad Kimber rocks a set of thin, brown, Misfits-inspired eyebrows this time around, and that's very much true with her wild, fierce stage paint she's applied, covering every inch of her adorable face! From her “G.L.O.W.” cosmetics collection, Vixen “The Back-Breaker” Benton began with a double slap of deep, shimmery purple eyeshadow to the wide open spaces above her eyelids, and marked the creases of her eyes with her bluish-purple “Live Wire” eyeliner. To dress up her baby blues, she's smeared on a few swipes of frosty blue “Lady Ice” eyeshadow across her eyelids and under both lash lines, painted her eyes with black “Cities in Dust” liquid eyeliner, and tapped her cheeks with “Backhanded Blackout” blush! After an hour spent in front of the mirror perfecting her red face paint with her “Flamin' Tears” kryolan pencil, Vixen took a brief minute to reapply a fresh coat by tracing an outline on the outer edges of her eyes, then dragging the paint upward to the tips of her eyebrows, trailing back down onto her cheeks and filling it all in! And she couldn't possibly forget to refresh her lips with her sizzling red “Salivating Sin” lipgloss! I am a firm believer in authenticity, and if it's at all possible to recreate a certain outfit from the show and give it life, then give it a go! My theory is set in stone when it comes to the Jem collection, for as I'm sure we all know, an outfit could either be a hit or a miss. Let's just say that the Design Team has had more hits than misses! The Bad Kimber outfit is yet another flawless elaboration from head to heels and is considered to be an independent hit! I'll admit that her clothing looks a bit risqué for a Jem doll. I mean, it doesn't get any naughtier than her tiger-print bustier! And those “Pretty Woman” thigh-high heel-boots?!?!...OWWW! Vixen's tight, shiny blue pants fit her real well, and I love the color! The red scarf for her thigh and the orange gauntlet for her arm proves what I mentioned earlier regarding small/large details, and I'm happy to have both with this doll! She's covered literally from her head down to her feet with accessories. I'm talking gold blinging and hanging over here, and silver buckles fastened over there! She wears a short gold beaded necklace, a pair of gold circular drop earrings, one silver bracelet, and a thick and thin black bracelet! She's also sporting a gold arm bracelet. If you think that's the extent of it, then you couldn't be more wrong! Vixen's most awesome accessories, and perhaps her sexiest, are four leather items that she wears with pride: her black silver-studded neck-choker, and her three black belts, one super wide with a huge silver buckle, the other medium-sized with silver studs, and another medium-sized with silver holes embedded along the strap! I tell you, this outfit alone makes all four Misfits look like charm school goody two shoes lol!
We are coming up on the finale of Jem, and even though I'm pretty much pleased with the wardrobe from this line, it's still annoying to know that I will never get the chance to see one of my absolute favorite outfits from Kimber's wardrobe, her (Le Klub Kool) light blue jean jacket, matching mini jean skirt, and white heel-boots, from “The Stingers Hit Town, Part One.” One can only dream, I guess. You know, there are moments in time that call for an appropriate display of public praise, and I know of several dolls from the collection that qualify. So kudos to the Design Team on a job well done! With all that said, there are absolutely zero complaints on my part. And it's safe to say that I am completely satisfied with every aspect of this set!
Three words only: HOT, HOT, HOT! ♨️

Lights: a nude euroblitz on camera right triggered with cacrtus V2 wireless system
This is a picture I took back in June 2006 I was then age 47. During that period I was very keen on studio style portraits and liked to use studio lighting for my pictures of myself dressed up as a woman. I also totally got into make-up for studio photography as well and literally painted my face in heavy layers of foundation to try and achieve that smooth flawless skin look. This proved quite a challenge having a male face that is bumpy with a dark beard shadow after years of facial shaving.
This may be of little interest to others but I thought I would break down the techniques I used to take this picture. As I mentioned I was obsessed at that time to try and get smooth looking skin. In this picture I am actually wearing four layers of Kryolan panstick stage foundation make-up on my face, ears, neck and chest. It’s basically the make-up equivalent of plastering a wall to make it smooth…I’m not kidding!
Prior to putting on the very heavy make-up coating I had decided to really go for it and pluck and shape my eyebrows. I recall I went a bit too far as it was very obvious when back in male mode I had thinner shaped brows. I have to admit though at the time I loved taking this risk, I enjoyed the thrill of committing my eyebrows to favouring the female look over the male look.
Once all the eye-liner, mascara, eye-shadow, eyebrow pencil, blusher, powder and lipstick had been applied I decided to try styling my wig differently and instead of my usual framing my face with a fringe thought it would be a change to brush everything up and back for a more open face look. I was concerned as I am in fact a bald man and was trying to make the wig hairline look hopefully realistic.
I noticed that wearing make-up that disguised my male skin and uneven complexion and having a female hair style that something began to change within me and how I as behaving, I confess I as loving it and was marvelling at having dared to embark on this bout of transvestism. I always find cross-dressing quite an adventure as well as rewarding on an emotional level.
I had earlier set up a dark grey paper backdrop and two lights, one behind me to highlight my wig hair and shoulders and a softer brighter light to the right of the camera as the main illumination. These would be triggered to flash when the camera shutter opened. I used the cameras 10 second self timer to take the shot.
I wish I had smooth feminine skin but acknowledge as a man engaging in female illusion I do need to make (a lot) of use of make-up to help create with trying t achieve such a look. Consequently I was wearing industrial quantities of make-up on my face but rathe enjoyed this. In fact it took me well over thirty minutes to get the make-up off and oh how I missed it when I saw my male face reappear. I do enjoy trying to look like a woman, it is rather a fabulous thing to do as a man.
The result is I feel a reasonably quality image on a photographic level but admittedly not aesthetically a picture that has much beauty. As a man I can never be a feminine beautiful woman but I do hopefully look somewhat female despite not being sexy and attractive as I would wish to be as a woman.
I have to say that all too often the phrase ‘Photoshopped’ is bandied about which in a way truly dismays and diminishes me. I do use Photoshop to process my pictures but not for the purposes of physically altering myself digitally. I use for control of the tonal aspects, the colours, the contrast and so forth. I see it as the same as one used to develop a negative and use darkroom techniques for a print to get extra quality in the tonal look of a print.
Personally, what I enjoy is the challenge of trying to look female by using physicality, make-up and wigs and of course the most enjoyable part (for me) of performance, acting the role, inhabiting the portrayal I attempt of a woman. Even for a still image I think it worth getting into the performance. I believe if you think you are a woman it adds to your photos rather than just being a an dressed up.
I acknowledge that all sounds pretentious but I enjoy female impersonation, I am after all a transvestite and I adore engaging in the activity. My big ambition is to one day pass convincingly as a woman out and about and never be perceived as being anything other than female. The ultimate acting challenge but also one on a deeper level I feel I need to achieve in my life as there is a transexual element within me that desperately seeks this.
So there you go, I’m sure many will mock me for what I say about what goes on within me as I pose for picture while cross-dressed but that’s just me, it’s how I am. If I’m cross-dressing I want to look the part and pretty much believe I am now female. We all have different motivations regarding our transvestism. The last thing I ever want to do is simply dress up and look good but still behave, walk and talk as a man, I want to make the switch as convincingly as possible when I am dressed as my female self. I am happy living as a man but when I dress up, yes, I want to be a woman...completely...

Hello
I do like short hair styles on women and I frequently have a desire to try them out when I dress up as a woman. I have stated many times my ambition as a transvestite is to be able to pass myself off as a woman in the eyes of others.
Of course, I'm male with physical limitations which restrict my ability to achieve this goal. However I am aware I have certain attributes I can utilise to aid my attempts at impersonating a female. I think I'm fortunate that I'm not very tall as a man, have reasonable figure and I've always been aware I was blessed with nice looking legs.
That's about it so the rest is down technique and acting. Make-up is the transvestites friend, make up can help all of us to look female but some kind of direction is required. Many transvestites, indeed many real women, put make-up on their faces in a way that does nothing to enhance their looks at all. Learning what will feminise and enhance your features is knowledge worth investing it as you feel a lot more female when you cross-dress. I would recommend hiring the services of a professional make-up artist to give you direction if you feel you are at loss or desire to look your most feminine. Approach the session as a tutorial rather than a makeover, it's all about gaining knowledge of techniques and approaches.
One thing I wanted to mention as I feel it is relevant is about the amount of foundation required by men dressing as women. Some transvestites are very fortunate to have minimal beard shadows and faces that look pretty as women. For most of us this is not the case, I am aware I too fall into this group. I need a lot of make-up to feminise my features and I do not think we should feel bad about this. Some T-girls can get away with minimal foundation and look good. For most of us this is a disaster and we remain male looking. We need to accept that the majority of us are not able to get away with minimal foundation, we need it to disguise our beard shadows and generally rougher skin than women or fortunate transvestites have.
Transvestites should avoid using foundation worn by real women as it is far too thin to cover beard shadows successfully. I have to admit when I see transvestites with visible beard shadows it makes me wince as it obvious I'm looking at a man. As I say, there are a few who can get away with this but I would hazard a figure of 98% of transvestites cannot. For most of us more coverage is necessary. Trying to think ordinary foundation will work is unfortunately a delusional view for the vast majority of men dressing as women.
Personally, I have accepted the requirement for heavier make up as my 'Mexican Bandit' beard shadow is not something I wish to see in the mirror when I become Helene. I use Kryolan panstick or Mac Full Coverage to cover my beard shadow and it also helps smooth the look of my bumpy skin (after years of facial shaving). As I mentioned make-up is our friend and is I find, an enjoyable aspect of cross-dressing, I like wearing it. It affects me psychologically by making me feel more feminine.
I think the point I'm trying to make is don't feel inadequate or down hearted if you require heavier make up. We are men and most of us need some help with transforming our features into a more feminine look. It is easy to feel envious of the beautiful transvestites, their looks, their popularity, their ability to look so feminine and get away with minimal make up but I say do not feel envy, instead draw inspiration from them. Seeing such gorgeous looking transvestites and recognising their popularity can fire your inner enthusiasm to push yourself to achieve a better female appearance. Like the real world not everyone is beautiful but we can all endeavour to look our best and try and achieve a look we may not have thought possible.
Careful use of make up, the right wigs, colours and clothing choices along with body shaping garments can create a successful illusion of being female. The next step requires a bit of performance as to make your female illusion work, even if you are just taking still pictures in private, you need to become a woman in your head and act the part. The make-up and clothes are just a part of the whole.
In this photo I was determined to be a woman once I was in make-up and the clothes. To try and get there I had shaved off all of my body hair, plucked my eyebrows, tucked away my male genitals and dressed in women's underwear and got myself into character in my head. I became Helene, the woman and I loved playing this part for a few hours. Even though I was a man I had become a woman and I enjoyed the experience.
I find if you get into character it changes your whole vibe and how you move, behave and talk. It is a form of acting, performance but not for the stage, it is a it of an exciting, undeniably thrilling indulgence.
I admit when I am pretending to be a woman I get areal buzz from it all. I love acting like I'm a female and enjoy the clothes a lot. I like wigs and make up; it's dressing up in a big way being a transvestite but always a thrilling adventure.
I am coming to feel more and more that shorter wigs on me create a more believable female appearance. As transvestites we have a liking for long hair styles but they often do not work well or make us look older. A shorter style may not be as girlie or as pretty but can make your female appearance be more natural and convincing to those who see you. I would recommend trying out a few shorter wig styles as it is genuinely huge fun and the results may well surprise you. Of course as I keep saying my ambition is for Helene to pass as a real woman so my efforts are focused on this elusive goal.
I have a lot of fun and pleasure from my cross-dressing experiments and efforts at acting female and I am now happy to admit I do love being a transvestite. It's amazing how for most of my life I feared my desire to dress up as a woman and impersonate females yet now I adore engaging in the challenge of transforming my gender. I really do enjoy being a woman. I think it is the sheer thrill of wearing all the make up, clothes, wigs, perfume, painting my nails and walking in high heels and acting like I'm a female whilst knowing I'm really a man that I find is both incredibly exciting and truly appealing. Swapping gender is rather good fun.
