Fashion, Perfumes and Cosmetics for Less: The Best Marc Jacobs Deals

Marc Jacobs sells a main line of designer clothing, along with a more accessible ready to wear collection called Marc by Marc Jacobs. Both lines feature youthful clothing with a focus on contemporary American style. The company also has a very popular range of perfumes, which are known for their sweet, fruity scent and signature daisy branding.

World-famous Designer Label Marc Jacobs

Born in the USA in 1963, Marc Jacobs graduated from art school in 1981 and went on to study design. The first Marc Jacobs collection was released in 1986, after which he went on to work with fashion legends like Tom Ford and Louis Vuitton. His bridge line, Marc By Marc Jacobs, was launched in 2001, as well as his first fragrances for men and women.

The Marc Jacobs Collections

Despite a thirty-year career in the industry, the fashion label created by Marc Jacobs is still considered to have a rebellious air. As well as expensive designer clothing, they sell a range of other goods, most at a price which is affordable for the mass market. Here is a rundown of which collections are available from the brand.

• The Main Collection – Each season Marc Jacobs releases new fashions in their main line of clothing. These are usually debuted on a lively catwalk and have a reputation for being young and punky. Marc Jacobs has stated that ‘fashion means you can become a rock star just by changing your clothes’, and his collections do have a highly theatrical edge. This range includes shoes, scarves, stationery and jewellery.

• Handbags – Marc Jacobs has a huge collection of handbags, with something to suit every occasion. There are small highly decorative Mini Bags, relaxed and understated hobo bags for wearing across the body and larger shoulder bags with plenty of space inside. They also have more utilitarian designs, with a selection of biker backpacks, baby changing bags and computer cases.

• Sunglasses – As part of their accessories range, Marc Jacobs has sunglasses for both men and women which can be worn with your winter or summer wardrobe. They come in round, retro or aviator frames, and are sold with a hard-shell case to keep them safe when not in use.

Marc Jacobs Cosmetics

Marketed separately from the clothing, accessories and fragrance lines, the Marc Jacobs Beauty range sells makeup, along with brushes, bags and gift sets featuring makeup. It was launched in 2013 and is a luxury line aimed at people who are willing to spend more on their cosmetics. Here’s what to look out for:

• Foundations and bases – This section includes primers which ready the skin for a makeup application, or give it a subtle sheen if worn alone. There are also highlighters to add definition to the cheekbones and a touch of sparkle to the skin. The liquid foundation comes in over twenty-five different shades to match with many skin tones and is a made with natural ingredients like jojoba and acacia, which deliver a smooth finish.

• Eye make up – Here you can find a range of colourful Gel Eye Crayons in fun shades like Lollipop, Blue Me Away and Violet Femme. There are also lash building mascaras, like the Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara and palettes of harmonised eye shadow colours for creating more complex looks.

• Blushers – The Marc Jacobs Air Blush, Lines & Last Night blusher has two colours in a range of five striped palettes, so you can blend the product to a custom shade. Rather than a powder texture, this blusher has a light air-whipped creamy feel. Marc Jacobs also has bronzers made with micro-fine powder for a very precise finish. These are the O!mega Bronze Perfect Tan compacts and they come in two shades.

• Makeup brushes - Marc Jacobs makeup brushes can help you achieve an extremely specialised finish, and are designed to work with the brand’s foundations and bronzers. They are feathery soft and wide, so you can apply a product quickly. There are also blusher and contouring brushes for adding finishing touches of colour or highlighter.

Marc Jacobs Fragrances

Marc Jacobs has a very successful line of fragrances for men and women. The women’s scents are sold in attractively finished bottles which reflect the individual perfume contained within. Here’s a little more about five of the most popular Marc Jacobs fragrances.

• Marc Jacobs Men – A modern masculine scent presented in an angular minimalist bottle, Marc Jacobs Men was released in 2002. It’s a heady scent with ginger and cypress top notes, coupled with patchouli and cedar below. This aftershave is available in 75ml or 125ml sizes, it is an Eau de Toilette and has a spray applicator.

• Daisy – First released in 2007, this fragrance is topped with a gold lid and is decorated using daisy-style flowers. It is essentially a fresh, floral scent, but there are also notes of fruity strawberry and grapefruit. This can be purchased as an Eau de Toilette in a 50ml or 100ml version, and there is a range of accompanying beauty products.

• Dot – A very extravagant looking perfume, the bottle for this creation features an array of polka dots and a small ladybird resting in the centre of a flower. It was first launched in 2012 and offers a more exotic aroma than other Marc Jacobs scents. At its heart is a warm, soft vanilla tone, whilst red berries, dragon fruit and coconut make for sweet top notes. There is a range of body care products which go with Dot, and it is available as an Eau de Perfum, in 30ml, 50ml, or 100ml sizes.

• Daisy Dream – A spin-off from the iconic Daisy perfume, this scent was released in 2014 and is a lighter, more delicate version of its predecessor. White daisies decorate the lid and bottle, whilst inside, the blue fragrance is infused with coconut, wisteria, pear and jasmine. It is available in 30ml, 50ml, or 100ml Eau de Toilette bottles. The scent is complemented with a matching shower gel and body lotion.

• Decadence – Usually considered the most mature of Marc Jacobs signature scents, Decadence was released in 2015 and has a more sultry perfume. Along with top notes of plum, there are hints of jasmine and a woody base which gives this aroma a solid richness. The glamorous bottle features emerald glass and a gold-chained snakeskin handbag lid. It is available as an Eau de Perfum in 30ml, 50ml or 100ml.

• The Perfect Present: Marc Jacobs Gift Sets – A great way of getting Daisy or one of the other Marc Jacobs perfumes at the best price is by purchasing a gift set. These usually include a couple of beauty products and a perfume, which would cost far more if bought individually. When you are looking for a Christmas or birthday present, or something special for any other occasion, these are a great solution. They come in an eye-catching presentation box and include different perfumes, so shoppers can choose one they prefer.
