First post here, long-time admirer of all you Kings and Queens! I (38F, with only very basic light makeup skills) am looking to support my 14 y/o daughter (she/they, queer and questioning EVERYTHING) in trying out her first drag King look. She has a full character ready with lore and an outfit; she's looking to be on the natural side, just looking a lot more masculine than her typical look. She already has a super-short pixie cut, so the hair will be easy, but I'm absolutely lost when it comes to contouring, and I really want to help her feel joyful and confident in this look. We are also planning to try doing some partner looks where we're both Kings together.

I'd love any buying guides and tutorials that others have found helpful, and while I'd love to say that money is no object, I do have 3 other kids, so I would like to stick with a few high-quality basics that we'll be able to experiment with if possible. We both have pretty fair skin, so we should be able to use similar products.

With her permission, I'll post a photo update in the future. Thanks for your help!

I wanted to hype up this silly thing I made for Instagram 😂
