The Course


This all-ages course is for anyone who identifies as female and was created for transgender women and girls, Assigned Male at Birth (AMAB), Assigned Female at Birth (AFAB), and nonbinary persons with a desire to learn about aesthetics. The nine modules were designed as a list-style "all-in-one-place" source of information for individuals who are just starting out with female-centered grooming, makeup, and fashion.

Jam-packed with big, clear photos, videos, and lively animations, this course breaks down all of the categories of personal care, makeup, and assembling a wardrobe into bite-size pieces for easy understanding. 

All makeup products used in these tutorials are affordable drugstore brands that can be found easily and inexpensively. No "high-end" products were used since the course is made for beginners with budget restrictions. Clothing and wardrobe modules follow the same principles, keeping budget in mind. 

All makeup tutorials include a downloadable list of products used, as well as a handy shopping guide and makeup application "course syllabus" to be kept on a mobile device for easy access while shopping or online ordering.

Finally, it is strongly recommended that students practice all makeup exercises seated in a comfortable position (not standing!) at a table with direct and bright lighting and a magnifying mirror. A bright window is best but a powerful ring light is also suitable.

Meet Your Instructor


Gina "Jet" Ortiz is a dedicated makeup artist and style consultant with over 24 years of experience in personal styling, specifically catering to the unique needs of the trans-femme community. Her makeup journey began in the fast-paced Drag Community of Denver, where she quickly identified a lack of representation and resources for gender-explorers and transgender women looking to express their true selves through clothing and style.

Driven by the desire to fill this gap, Gina immersed herself in learning about the different aspects of gender expression and the transformative power of style, subsequently establishing herself as an expert in creating affirming and empowering makeup and wardrobe strategies.

As an educator and mentor, Gina's courses, "Styling for the Transgender Woman," and "Makeup for the Transgender Woman," reflect her deep commitment to inclusivity and her passion for helping individuals embrace their identity with confidence.

Each session she leads is a testament to her belief in makeup and fashion as forms of self-celebration and tools for positive change. Through hands-on experiences and thoughtful curriculum, Gina has cultivated a supportive environment where her students can discover and refine their personal style, fostering not only a new skill set but also a renewed sense of self. Her devotion to her students' journeys parallels her drive for advocacy, making her a cherished guide within the community.
