YesKween is a beauty blog, yes, but told from a perspective of someone over 40.  I come from a background of always loving makeup and admiring artists like Kevyn Aucoin, Pati Dubroff, Pat McGrath, galvanizing over their talents on the models of the 90s. I had acne prone skin from a young age, I was teased for my nose and I saw makeup as a way to correct my flaws and enhance my better traits.  Makeup was my super power, but without it I would feel less than.  It wasn’t until I was almost 40 that I decided I wanted to feel good when I looked in the mirror when I got up in the morning.  Now I can honestly say I do feel good in the morning when I see my reflection.  And to me thats what its all about.  Finding your inner acceptance of yourself.   I hope to help others with tips and recommendations on what has worked and not worked for me.
