Amazing products and packaging too! Shipping is always less than a week. Never received anything broken and I have 3 palettes, 5 mirrors, 15 lip scrubs, setting powder, concealers, 2 bags, lip liners and 20 lip sticks and lip ammo. I love his mystery boxes, it's fun to get items I wouldn't normally buy, and everything can be used in alternate ways which is cool. Love JSC!!! .....and people need to stop complaining about petty things. Can't relate.

Actual Review of the JSC Products (not just the shipping)
Okay I think all the people complaining about shipping need to sit down please. He isn't Sephora, he isn't Fenty launching through Sephora, he's an indie brand. Other indie brands like Huda also have slower shipping times and that is compounded by the fact that Jeffree keeps dropping more and more amazing makeup and people are all dying to get it! Hmmm... I wonder why. Because it's great effing makeup! I swear to god Amazon and their 2 day prime shipping is turning everyone into monsters. If it's not at your door in two days people lose their minds! What all of the sudden JSC is stealing your money? You get your products, calm down. If you were ordering for a special occasion and didn't allow for enough time, a lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on Jeffree & his staff's part. They're all still working hard and doing their best to bring you the makeup you want. Let them live. I've ordered during launches and I've had to wait a while, but you know what? I survived, my products arrived, the packaging was cute, and the products were lit.
If you actually want to talk about the makeup though, then pull through. It's amazing. I'm a junkie so I have a TON of his products so I'm going to break it down for ya.
Liquid Lipsticks: JSC liquid lips dry down better and outlast any other liquid lips I've tried including Anastasia Beverly Hills, Kylie, Tarte, etc. plus drug store brands like NYX (duh). JSC's formula is SO much less drying and I never have to ruin my look by putting on lip balm during the day to hydrate my lips. If I'm feeling a non-matte look, I just pop on some of The Gloss and I'm Gucci. Just make sure the liquid lip is dry first or you'll stain the gloss wand. I love that he does bundles so you can sample tons of shades. I got the Mini Red & Pink Bundle which contains Doll Parts, Calabasas, Wifey, Watermelon Soda, Anna Nicole, Prom Night (hello Jeffree shouting out his own music lol), Redrum, and Unicorn Blood. I never leave my house without a bold lip, so I reach for these a lot. I also bought the full-sized versions of Fully Nude and Strawberry Crush (which I'm wearing rn, work!). When they're dried down I forget I'm wearing them. I don't usually go for nudes but I had to get one because when I wear Jeffree's eye shadows the colors are so extra that I want a more muted look on my lips. Fully Nude is one of those colors that almost every skin tone could rock and it's part of his summer collection, so snag it in case it doesn't get made a regular. A few of the shades have a scent, which I really enjoy and doesn't linger once the product is set. If you're curious which ones out of the ones I own have a scent, Watermelon Soda has a watermelon scent and Unicorn Blood has a rootbeer scent. Also a feature I think is super cool is that all JSC liquid lips can be used on the eyes too! I am definitely going to have to buy his matte black shade Weirdo for my goth moods and to double as a liquid eyeliner.
Lip Ammo: I am usually a liquid lip girl and I prefer spending my money on products that are going to last the longest, but I do sometimes want a more low maintenance look that I can apply on the go with no mirror or careful application so I did end up getting one of his lip ammos. By the way the packaging on these is beyond cute. They look like little bullets and I live for the juxtaposition of makeup & guns. I got the shade Yummy from his Jawbreaker collection and it's a sparkly purple. It goes on more sheer than a full saturated color but the glitter payout is legit. I have worn it alone (cute), on top of his liquid lips (cute!), but my fav is putting it on and then a liquid lip on top. It still gives me a little of the glitter shining through but lets the liquid lip dry down more (unlike when I layer the lip ammo on top). Also, the shade Yummy has a gorgeous creme brulee/vanilla scent. I can't really identify what it is exactly but it's delicious.
Lip Scrub: I have the Pineapple Juice lip scrub and I love using it before applying his liquid lips. It's delicious and entirely edible so I can do it without getting up from my vanity. I don't like having to go wash them off when they're not all edible. Also at $12 you get a LOT of product since a little goes a long way, so this is a great deal.
The Gloss: I have Ice Cold (sheer with blue & purple shift) and Wet Peach (peach tint with gold & pink shift). The packaging is sickening. I LOVE the cap and they're very solid. These also smell amazing! They have that same vanilla/creme brulee smell as the lip ammo I have and I can't get enough. I've worn them alone and as toppers and I like them both ways, but I prefer Wet Peach alone over Ice Cold. They're definitely not sticky and they stay wet and shiny for a seriously long time. I usually only reapply after eating.
Skin Frost: I haven't tried the Liquid Frost or the Supreme Frost since I'm not as much of a highlight wh*re as Jeffree himself, but I LOVE my Skin Frost in the shade Peach Goddess. The component is HUGE (I may never hit pan) and it has a mirror too! I apply with a brush but every time I open it I'm tempted to just rub my fingers in it cus it's so silky.
Magic Star Setting Powder: I got this in the shade Beige before it sold out, but he's often out of the lighter shades. I think Translucent, Rose, and Fair would also work for me, but I'm very happy with Beige. I don't wear foundation a lot but I like to "set" my face anyway to combat shine so I swipe this all over. I also use it under my eyes to set the little bit of color correcting I do to hide my dark circles. (Site note, I'm waiting patiently for the Peach color correcting concealer to be back in stock... I want!). This powder also smells amazing! It's a cotton candy scent and it doesn't linger on the skin, but does end up making my powder brush smell good too!
Eye-shadow Pallets: I have the Jawbreaker bundle (so the Jabreaker and the Mini-Breaker) and the Alien palette. To be fair, these are still new so I'm still obsessed with them, but I reach for these almost every day, even if it's just for one shade instead of the whole look. I LOVE his mattes even in tricky colors like reds & purples and his shimmer shades are so extra. Keep in mind though that some of these super saturated colors are pressed pigment so they can stain your lids, but I haven't had that problem myself. Everyone and their mother can make a shimmer shade, but Jeffree's pop even with a dry brush and without a cut crease. They blend like a dream and until buying his palettes I was too nervous to really go for it with my eye looks, but for as crazy as the colors are I've found that they really are wearable, even for daytime. I've gotten so many more compliments on my makeup at work since I started using JSC. The only complaint I have is that it's really hard to decide what colors to use! I get overwhelmed and want to use them all!
Accessories: So far I only have the White Glitter Hand Mirror, but I am going to jump on a makeup bag the next time he drops a new collection. I loved the Jawbreaker one but I missed it. I like some of the ones from old collections, but I am going to wait and see what he does next since he's been dropping hints lately about more stuff coming in 2019. As for the mirror, it's great. It's very solid and I love the weird combo of straight 2019 culture (hello stanning a youtube icon) with the old fashioned concept of having a hand-held mirror (hello Snow White/ old hollywood vibes on my vanity). I mainly just got it because I love having a mirror to check the back of my hair/check my makeup in natural light without having to use a palette or something that usually ends up getting cloudy with makeup over time.
In case you haven't already guessed, I need to quit spending so much on makeup, but damn it Jeffree, I can't. I have two shades of the Magic Star Concealer on the way along with a Summer Mystery Box that launched today (7/19/19). I wanted a Deluxe box but they literally sold out in 15 minutes. I had one in my cart right at 10am when they dropped and I still missed it, so I went with the Premium Box instead. Disappointing? A little, but it's not Jeffree's fault that his stuff is so good everyone wants it! What, am I going to be mad at his company because I want their products and the demand is just too high? No girl, I'm not. Props to Jeffree for another killer launch. Maybe when his brand is even bigger everyone will be able to get everything they want and the website won't need extra time loading, but maybe not and that's okay too! I can't wait to see what's in the box I was able to get and I'm pumped for the mystery shade that's only being released in these boxes! Jeffree Lynn sure does know how to whip us makeup whores into a frenzy but I don't hate it (even if my bank account does).
Also EVERYTHING from JSC is vegan and cruelty free, so that's just the cherry on top. What's to hate?

After reading many negative reviews can…
After reading many negative reviews can happily say I have had no problem with the shipping from Jeffree Star.
Took 2-3 weeks to arrive, had to pay £15.05 customs but this was all expected.
Was somewhat surprised that the shipping didn't take longer considering that Jeffree had just released his new collection.
Very happy and would order directly again when the products are not in stock on Beauty Bay.

I am a single mom trying to my daughters day extra special NOW she has nothing to open and I’m out $665.00!!!! Don’t waste your time on these products!!!!

poor customer service
It took them 2.5 weeks (!) to ship my order of items that were in stock.
After such a delay, the shipping was NOT upgraded to premium.
Never heard back from the customer service which I tried to reach out via email twice.
There is A LOT OF MAKEUP products in the market to choose from and such a poor customer service and customer treatment will definitely make me pay my $ somewhere else.

Not a review of the products.
Edit: After shipping, products came in 2 days, with the 4th of July holiday in mind. They are great quality, amazing pigment, and long wearing! Save for one liquid lipstick component which had glue on the outside and was coming apart at the cap. We will see how customer service handles that inquiry.
Not a review of products. Will update this review after receipt of products.
Had no issues checking out or with the website.
The website states that order processing takes 1-2 days normally and could take an additional 2-4 days during restocks and new releases. So theoretically it could take about a week for your products to process during a new release/restock.
It took my order 9 days to process and I was never given any shipping options so it's just coming whenever it's coming, I guess.
Also don't like that he doesn't offer a rewards program. After all the rigamarole regarding his shipping practices, a loyalty program would be redeeming.
If I like the quality of the products (which I will update this review about later) and decide to purchase more in the future, I will go through Beautylish or to the Morphe store directly.

Jeffree Star cosmetics first product was a Super Awe moment for me.
I got my package so secure it was like breaking in to fortknox. Plus best quality make up you could ever use.
