So this is what I received in the kit (it does come in a black bag that says 'Victoria Jackson' on it and it looks very professional. Also, the products come in their own packaging (yet again black) and these add to the professional look:
12 Piece Lip Gloss Collection:
The website claims:
Drench your lips in radiant color and shine with this ultra-moisturizing formula that keeps lips soft and smooth for hours. Enriched with Vitamin E and A, experiment with a variety of long-wearing shades for a range of alluring looks that enhance your lips like never before.
And I do agree. These colours are fabulous and you get a clear gloss, dark red, bubblegum pink, golden colour, bright red, brown, dark brown, bronze, shimmery red, nude, matte plum, iridescent baby pink which all equals to 12 beautiful colours. The formula does seem to be moisturising and when the lips have been primed these stay on longer than most lip glosses. With so many colours to choose from, I can guarantee you will be spoilt for choice! My favourite colour is the bubblegum pink one as it adds a subtle hint of girlyness to my make up, which I do love :)
Also, the packaging. It is sturdy, hard and looks and feels highly professional which when it comes to make up is always a bonus. Now the price on the website I have is $45 (sorry about it being American, I have explained about this below) which is around £28!
You can buy this product here: Now, this is an American website as I couldn't find an English website for these but if you do, please let me know.
Shimmer Powder Brush (Bronze):
The website claims:
Get luminous with luxurious shimmer powder and a silky-soft brush in one!
This innovative brush dispenser is convenient and portable for quick touch-ups on the go. Unique system combines light tinting and shimmering agents to enhance the skin's natural color. Sweep on a shimmering or even a sun-kissed glow, from head to toe, at the shake of a hand. Compliments any skin tone.
This little baby is wonderful. It is portable which is fantastic but you don't even need touch ups as it lasts throughout the day! Also the product looks natural and applies really evenly - I think this is thanks to the lovely, soft brush! You can use this anywhere but I use it after my bronzer, blusher and highlighter just to get a nice subtle glow to wake up my skin. Also, the lady told me sister than once you have this brush there is no need to repurchase as you can refill it with any shimmer etc that you want - perfect. Yet again the website is priced at $32 which over here is worth around £20!

Colour Collection - Pink:
The website claims:
The Color Collection is a classic, multi-functional, mirrored face palette that offers everything you need to make up the eyes, face and lips. The radiant shades are reflective of the current color trend, but also a great starter combination for the makeup beginner.
In this lovely compact you get 4 mineral eyeshadows, 2 mineral blushers and 4 mineral lipsticks, 2 eyeshadow brushes, a blusher brush and a lipstick brush. These all compliment each other and from the eyeshadows you can create a different smoky eye which looks gorgeous. All of the products in this compact last throughout the day and don't crease or end up looking patchy and un natural. The brushes are also lovely and soft and guarantee perfect application. The packaging can not be broken which is amazing so if I was in a rage and threw it at the wall, the products inside will still be intact :). The website says that this is $65 which is worth around £41.

This is the best product of them all and I take this to college with me everyday, just this little wonder. As it contains eveything you need. This contains:
- Mascara: This is the best mascara I have ever used and it really gives your lashes volume but without any clumps.
- Eyeliner: The only eyeliner I have ever used that lasts and doesn't smudge or run.
- Lipliner: A bit too dark but still, stops lips from bleeding.
- A blusher brush, eyeshadow brush, blender brush, 2 lip brushes: All again which are lovely and soft and apply the make up perfectly.
- A large mirror: Which means you don't have to go to the bathroom to do your make up.
- 2 Blushes: One being a bronzed colour and the other dark pink which are mineral and natural looking.
- 10 Eyeshadows: All of different colours to highlight, contour and create lovely eye combinations. Highly pigmented and last all day without creasing.

All of these are in a handy compact which looks amazing! It is worth $110 on the website which is equal to around £69 here.

Bottom Line:
This review has been veryyy long and if you couldn't be bothered to read it all then basically these products are not a scam and are wonderful, lovely and definitly worth having. Remember me telling you how much the products are worth? Well over £200. But like I said, my sister got all of these for just £30! So next time you see a Victoria Jackson stand, don't just walk away, have a listen and consider buying these products.
