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.
Jackson has also reached thousands of women through her two bestselling books: Redefining Beauty: Discovering Your Individual Beauty, Enhancing Your Self-Esteem (Warner Books, 1993) and Make Up Your Life: Every Woman’s Guide to the Power of Makeup (HarperCollins, 2000).
An active philanthropist, Victoria’s newest charity is the Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation. This charity's mission is dedicated to finding a cure for Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO) Spectrum Disease.
Married to husband Bill Guthy of infomercial giant Guthy-Renker, Victoria Jackson is the mother of three children and together they make their primary residence in Los Angeles.
