About

Having achieved success as a Hollywood makeup artist and cosmetics entrepreneur, Victoria Jackson prefers to think of herself as “a goodwill ambassador for makeup.” When women embrace self-confidence, she says, they learn the key to success, and liking who they see in the mirror is a powerful first step in that transformative process. “My personal philosophy has always been, ‘When you look better, you feel better. And when you feel better, you can change your life,’” says Jackson, who has volunteered at women’s correctional facilities and hospitals.
