Kim Kardashian smells Gold with new fragrance

From clothes, shoes and weight loss supplements to skincare, hair care and fast food, reality TV star Kim Kardashian, 30, has taken celebrity endorsements to a whole new level, and now she smells Gold with the launch of her new fragrance of the same name, reports People.

Following up the successful launch of her signature perfume in 2009, Kardashian is promoting her newest perfume Gold at malls across America.

The star recalled that when her father went away on business trips, he always returned with a gift of perfume for her. “I hated when he bought perfume for his girlfriends, but loved it when he bought me a glamorous bottle of his favorite scent of gardenia. So when I was developing ‘Gold,’ I thought of him and other happy times in my childhood.”

At the perfume launch at Macy’s in the Aventura Mall outside of Miami, Kardashian told the group: “To me, summer is sexy, beachy and glamorous with thoughts turning to romantic evenings. I wanted something powerful yet not too sweet. I got stressed out while developing the scent because I wanted it to be just perfect.” 

The fragrance combines top notes of Italian bergamot and grapefruit with a hint of spicy pink peppercorn, along with a floral heart of jasmine, delicate rose and golden resins of amber and creamy benzoin. Musk provides the trailing base note.

“I am very hands on with my fragrances,” she explained her choice of packaging design. “I really didn’t want a square bottle of any type. I am curvy and think my fragrance should represent me. So I picked a sleek round vessel in gold with ebony accents.”

Kim Kardashian debuts single in March

A little like Paris Hilton, who she seems to have replaced in the tabloids, many people wonder: what’s Kim Kardashian famous for?

Once again, following a similar trajectory to the hotel heiress, Kardashian, 30, comes from a wealthy family, stars in a reality show with her sister Kourtney, had one of her sex tapes leaked online, and enjoys stepping out to night clubs.

Although she’s spent no time in jail like Hilton, Kardashian can now also add singer to her résumé with the launch of her very first single, Turn It Up, in three weeks.

The fundraising record was created with the help of producers The-Dream, plus a slick new music video shot by Hype Williams will also debut in about three weeks.

Kardashian, 30, explained that she didn’t record the song with plans to launch a music career. "I’m proud of myself that I tried something. It’s all in fun," she said. "We just had a good time and the proceeds are going to a cancer organization [because we both] lost a parent to cancer. So it’s just fun."

Kim Kardashian promotes laser hair removal

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian has signed on to promote an at-home laser hair removal system from TRIA Beauty company, reports Coco Perez.

Gracing the cover of Allure magazine, in an article of the September issue, Kardashian says that being half Armenian has made her obsessive about body hair.

"I am Armenian, so of course I am obsessed with laser hair removal! Arms, bikini, legs, underarms…my entire body is hairless." Kardashian also went on to talk about her regret over her sex tape and posing for Playboy.

This celebrity endorsement is sure to helps sales of the laser hair removal system that is supposed to remove body hair painlessly and permanently. The product offers five speeds, which allows treatments to be tailored to the colour and density of hair.

The company’s website guarantees permanent results. It states that their $495 machine was created by the same scientists who made in-office laser hair removal systems.

Laser hair removal is supposed to free you from a lifetime of shaving, waxing, ingrown hairs and razor burn. They say they are the only laser that can deliver permanent, professional results at home.

The FDA-cleared instrument promises results in as little as 90 days, and after 6 to 8 months you’re done.

Kim Kardashian designs jewelry collection

On Tuesday (November 16), reality TV star Kim Kardashian, 30, unveiled her first in a series of jewelry collections for Bebe, reports Coco Perez.

Last May, Kardashian revealed she would work with Pascal Mouawad to create a line of necklaces, earrings, cuffs, bracelets, and rings – “statement pieces that you can wear day or night to make your look stylish and fun!” according Kardashian’s website.

This is not the first time Kardashian has designed jewelry. In April, she launched a collection called ‘Virgin Saints and Angels’ with her sisters, Kourtney and Khloe.

The American beauty has her finger in many pies including numerous retail ventures that carry her name: perfume, shoes, clothing lines, and even a sunless tanner, all the while modeling and making guest appearances on various TV shows. She has recently written a book with her sisters, which is due out November 23.
