Marc Jacobs cucumber splash

Update: I have added shopping boxes for sources of this sometimes hard to find fragrance that I will do my best to keep updated. Also, Ultra Fragrances sometimes has it here:
Marc Jacobs Cucumber by Marc Jacobs Perfume for Women

Marc Jacobs Cucumber Splash is back! I adore this fragrance. You see, I am not much of a perfume person. I don’t care for most of them, unless they have a very natural and clean smell.

Marc Jacobs cucumber splash is one of those that I really like. This fragrance is light (it is labeled as a “splash”) and while I don’t know that it really smells like cucumber, it has a fresh, clean fragrance that seems natural to me. This is a great scent for everyday wear and for outdoor casual activities.

I also must add that I have had more compliments wearing Marc Jacobs Cucumber Splash than I have had with any other fragrance. Actually, I don’t think I have gotten many compliments at all on other perfumes, but cucumber splash has drawn good remarks on multiple occasions.

Another one I really like is Marc Jacobs Grapefruit Splash , which also has a fresh and light citrus oriented fragrance, although it seems slightly more perfumed to me.

These tend to be limited edition (the first cucumber splash was out two years ago for only a short time). So if you want one, procrastination isn’t a good idea!

Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara 2000 Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper is essentially the same mascara as CoverGirl LashBlast Mascara. I happen to like both quite a bit and the CoverGirl one is sometimes cheaper.

This mascara provides good volume and decent length and definition. I haven’t had clumping issues with it. Mostly it’s focus though is on volume with a decent amount of length as well. I find the thick tube a bit odd (it just feels fat to me), but if that is my only complaint, then it must be a decent mascara!

The brush is average size, with no real taper, and the mascara wears well without flaking. Despite the lack of taper to the brush, I am able to do my lower lashes OK with this one. But I could see that bothering some people.

Of the various drugstore mascaras, this is one near the top of my list. Just be sure to see which mascara is cheaper or might be on sale when you buy. CoverGirl Lash Blastor Max Factor 2000 calorie.
