TN10: Lydia Marie Wilson, Beauty Blogger
Encouraging women to embrace their beauty at every age
Your Age: 47
Basic bio: Lydia Marie Wilson is a beauty blogger, YouTuber and the face of Beauty by L’Marie, a beauty and lifestyle website for women over 40. When she’s not playing with makeup or trying new skincare and beauty products, Lydia is out and about in Charlotte, NC finding something interesting to do. Her latest project is a spring beauty trends roundup.
Beyond the bio: How life has changed for me as I’ve gotten older is how free and comfortable I am with myself. I’m slowly accepting the graying hair and taking better care of my body so that I’ll remain as vital as possible. I wouldn’t trade this time in my life for anything.
What makes you a grown-ass lady?
I’m very brave and not afraid to pivot and try something new if my current situation isn’t working. Also realizing that I don’t have to compare my journey to anyone else’s. I’m one of one.
On the nightstand: Books, my journal, some water and lip balm.
Can’t stop/won’t stop: Trying new things, promoting my brand and blog.

Best thing that happened recently: I hit 5,000 views on my blog.
