*Best Beauty Product of 2008 - CLEAN Perfume - Shower Fresh for Men
At Couture we are proud to present the debut of the second Men’s Fragrance from the CLEAN Perfume line - Shower Fresh for Men. From the makers of the famous celebrity scents that is universal for both men and women. We had to let you know how fabulous this product is, as well as do a giveaway!
The CLEAN Perfume Shower Fresh for Men, was also picked as one of the *Best Beauty Products of 2008 by Couture in the City. For its huge popularity, clean and simple scent, and for its universal appeal to both men and women!
The CLEAN Perfume line, worn by celebrities such as Jason Biggs, James McEvoy, Courteney Cox Arquette, Diane Kruger, and Kerry Washington (to just name a few). Have exploded their exclusive fragrance lines to suite both the women and man. Including their popular lines CLEAN WELLNESS, and FRESH LAUNDRY.
CLEAN Shower Fresh for Men is the quintessential just-from-the-shower scent. With juicy notes of Bergamot and Citrus intermix perfectly with the cool undertones of Thyme and Spearmint while Black Tea and Cedarwood create the fresh and simple aroma of Shower Fresh masculinity that captures a perfect-moment-in-time.
Here is what our friends had to say about CLEAN Shower Fresh for Men.
“I think the scent is wonderful and lasts all day. I think it smells great on me as well as my boyfriend.”
Angelique Sims - Editor - Couture in the City, Atlanta, GA
” The fragrance is amazing! It is just as its name suggests - CLEAN. Bold and masculine but not overpowering, classy but simple. I love the fresh citrus tones. This is a great product!”
Brian Copeland - Singer/Songwriter - Brian Copeland Band, Portland, OR
“It really smells like I just stepped out of the shower! The scent is light and crisp. My girlfriend Katia wants to wear it too! So it almost could be a unisex scent!”
James Swofford - Head Chef - South Western Cuisine, Charlotte, NC
“I think it is fresh. It’s got a perfect cool tone to it. Its lasts. It gives me that hip, cool, crisp scent I want during the day.”
SL Thorsen - National Contemporary Painter - Los Angeles, CA

Win this on Today’s Couture! A beautiful 22k Gold Vermeil necklace by Zavida Jewelry! Valued at $110.00! Subscribe here if you don’t already and be added to the Couture in the City readers pool of picks.
Couture in the City and Zavida Gemstones is proud to announce our exclusive giveaway on Today’s Couture! Today we are featuring a review of this exceptional and exotic jewelry line from around the world! This beautiful line of jewelry is a personal favorite of mine. And you can’t go wrong with a jewelry line whose artists are diverse from the most exotic parts of the world. From India, Africa, Asia, Central America and South America. The Zavida line specializes in bringing unique and beautiful jewelry from around the world - with a touch of the exotic. Most of their jewelry line is made of sterling silver, gold and exceptionally high quality gemstones.
Angelique - Editor’s choice - “I love these earrings! Blue topaz is one of my favorite stones. On a fashion sense, I would recommend wearing these earrings with hair in a nice sleek ponytail. I wore them to a birthday party last weekend and I received so many complements on how adorable they looked! These make a great gift item too!”
Even though Zavida creates exceptional jewelry, they also have a keen hand in philanthropy. Their mission - to help struggling artisans half -way around the world. Zavida Gemstones makes a point in offering socially-conscious handmade semi-precious gemstone jewelry.
So far Zavida has granted $23,000 to support the indigenous silversmiths of India who create some of Zavida’s jewelry offerings. The funds come as part of Zavida’s progressive business model that gives back 25% of its profits to struggling regions where its worldly jewelry and gemstones originate, plus private donations. Now that’s giving back! In addition to giving back 25% of their profits, Zavida purchases directly from the silversmiths. Helping to further the silversmiths’ financial gain. Zavida then sells the silversmiths’ pieces as part of the many jewelry options offered on its retail website.
But now Couture in the City and Zavida are giving back too! And be one of the lucky readers to win our exceptional gift item. Enter today, and if you already subscribe to Couture in the City, you are automatically added into the pool of picks. This fantastic giveaway will run until September 12th! So be sure to check back in. When we will be giving away another beautiful jewelry item from Zavida on Friday September 19th! So good luck to you all my fashionistas!

Yes it is our end of summer giveaway! And thanks to Sephora we have an amazing line of really cool products that you can win! Now these are some of my summer favorites, and they feel great on the skin, as well as smell great too! And one lucky Couture in the City reader will win the whole set! So here is what’s up for grabs.
Win this! SuperStars - Super Shield Skin Saver SPF 30 - Valued at $10.00
This is the perfect way to save face for shade worshippers everywhere. This groundbreaking formulation is fantastic for face and body and for all skin types. It’s ultra-light, oil-free, and absorbs quickly, leaving pores clog-free and your skin with the most advanced UVA/UVB protection available. Not to mention, it contains skin-strengthening collagen, antioxidant vitamin complex A, C, and E, and soothing anti-aging botanicals to keep you gorgeous - no matter the weather.
To use: Apply liberally to face and body one hour before sun exposure. Re-apply every two hours to ensure maximum protection - more frequently when swimming or sweating.
Did we like it? Absolutely! Don’t think because summer is nearing it’s end that you don’t need an SPF skin protector. Because you do. Sun rays can still affect sensitive skin, even on cloudy days.
Angelique - The Editor’s Pick- Win the Sephora Peach Blossom Body Butter - Valued at $16.00!
What it is: A rich, lightly scented cream for the entire body.
What it is formulated to do: This thick, luxurious moisturizer rejuvenates skin with natural shea butter and beeswax, which softens skin and prevents against moisture loss.
What did we like about it the most? The smell is absolutely fabulous! And smells decadently like a beautiful peach orchard in the summer. Very dreamy.
Jacqueline - Senior Writer’s Pick - Sephora Peach Blossom body scrub - valued at $16.00!
What it is: A lightly scented body exfoliator.
What it is formulated to do: Using small Jojoba beads, this gentle yet effective scrub stimulates the skin while polishing away dry, dead cells. Macadamia Seed oil softens and hydrates the newly revealed skin.
Did we like it? I loved it! It is one of my favorite summer picks from Sephora. Again the scent is really amazing and fills the whole shower with an exotic and peachy aroma. I found this to be very therapeutic for the soul. And a sure winner. Five stars for me.
So if you wish to win this wonderful set of goodies from Sephora, then enter here. Now if you already subscribe to Couture in the City, you are automatically put into the pool of picks. The giveaway will run until September 9th. So good luck to you all my beautynistas!
