NY Beauty Guide: Shobha Threading Salon

Shobha is my favorite place to get my brows done, for two reasons. The first being, I love the colorful and exotic decor and second being the great service. A friend tipped me off about Shobha a while back and I'm forever grateful for her suggestion. Shobha is incredibly clean, inviting and beautiful. The staff is amazing and they are very professional and clinical which I really appreciate. They also offer also waxing (the best Brazilian in NY mind you), sugaring and facials.

Indian women are obsessed with threading because of the precision and definition it brings to brows. I always make it a point to have my eyebrows reshaped while vacationing in India so it's nice to get the same look here in NY. Visit Shobha and make sure you you let them know we sent you and tell us about your experience. See all locations here. -Mimi

Beauty Basics, Tips For Gorgeous Hands

You can tell many things about a woman by looking at the state of her hands. Hands play a huge part in your overall look and if you have been neglecting them, it's really time to take notice. The best way to keep your hands looking flawless is to get a weekly manicure at a salon like my favorite, Dashing Diva . Or DIY by buying a manicure kit and a selection of nail polishes from the best nail polish companies, Essie and OPI. Don't forget to pick up a base coat and top coat

I've recently started using this great Rejuvenating Hand Cream by Become Beauty. I love it because it has some amazing ingredients like orange oil and peppermint that are clinically proven to improve the appearance of your hands. I also adore how fast it's absorbed and also pleased that the formula is non-greasy. I recommend slathering it on at night and then secure with cotton gloves to wake up with supple beautiful hands. Then apply it religiously during the day. Get your tube of Become Rejuvenating cream here.
