Through virtual services, clients receive one-on-one beauty coaching, faith-informed image consulting, interactive lessons, and personalized beauty shopping consultations designed to help them master techniques, make confident product decisions, and create routines that truly work for them.

Corporate and group clients can expect engaging beauty, style, and professional presence experiences that combine education, encouragement, and confidence-building—ideal for teams, executives, and organizations seeking meaningful connection and elevated presentation.

Every client receives the YAMSGLAM™ experience: a blend of artistry, education, encouragement, and transformation that honors both inner strength and outer expression. Whether for camera-ready glam, bridal beauty, stage performance, personal development, or a virtual masterclass, I create memorable experiences that extend far beyond the mirror.

Expect professionalism. Expect compassion. Expect transformation. Most importantly, expect to see yourself in a new light.

I’m Kanecia Rashida, professional makeup artist, beauty educator, and founder of Candied Y.A.M.S. Beauty Consulting—an evolved brand dedicated to helping clients discover confidence through beauty education, artistry, and personalized guidance.

For nearly two decades, I’ve served beauty enthusiasts and professionals across the luxury beauty and retail industries. My journey began behind the artistry counters of Sephora and expanded through luxury beauty education and brand representation with Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Estée Lauder Companies, and NEST New York Fragrances, where I specialized in event hosting, client education, and personalized styling experiences.

My philosophy is simple: beauty is more than appearance—it is an opportunity for confidence, creativity, and authentic self-expression. Through my signature YAMSGLAM™ experience, I combine expert technique, personalized consultation, and genuine encouragement to help clients create looks and routines that reflect who they are.

Beyond makeup artistry, I offer private beauty coaching, virtual lessons, beauty shopping consultations, educational masterclasses, and corporate image workshops designed to elevate confidence, presentation, and personal style.

Whether preparing for a special event, refining a professional image, or learning how to confidently use the products you already own, I help clients see themselves in a new light—beautifully, purposefully, and authentically.
