The highlight of Program II is Viscera, a World Premiere ballet by Liam Scarlett, The Royal Ballet of London’s most successful young choreographer.

Shortcut to Fabulous New Skincare Line

January 2, 2012 by ShortcutsEditor  

bothbottles2There is a new skincare product out on the market called Helix D. I say, the new year is as good a time as any to try some new products and start afresh with a new skincare routine! Helix D send me a sample and I am now a fan. They have an eye serum and a face serum. I really loved the face serum. This product tightens pores and made my skin look nice and clear. I don’t have wrinkles so I can’t opine on the effects to wrinkles, but check out some reviews here. All the reviews indicate that it works great for fine lines and wrinkles. The face cream is $99 and the eye cream is $79. You can buy the product here.

Miami Monday…Shortcut to Fabulous Hair for the Holidays and Beyond….

December 19, 2011 by ShortcutsEditor  

Mail AttachmentA blow dry for $35 in Miami? One that is actually good? Yes, it really does exist at Blo in Mary Brickell Village. Blo has been open for about 2 months now and I have been your little guinea pig testing out a few different styles to see if Blo is worth the hype. The space is gorgeous, super clean and makes you feel like a total “It Girl.” The staff and stylists are friendly, but have a very “New York, let’s get the job done” kind of work ethic that is so hard to find here in Miami.

I love the fact that every time I have been they have given me a great blow dry and cut out the chitter-chatter amongst themselves that drives me bonkers. You know what I am talking about…the two stylists in the station next to each other, holding their blowdryers and brushes mid-air or mid-hair, chatting while you sit there fumbling wondering when they are going to stop talking about where they buy their groceries….grrr!Well, I have yet to experience that here and I have to say I LOVE it!

Now onto the hair, they have a fab hair menu with different styles to choose from. Click here to check it out….and yes all of these styles are $35! I have gotten several styles including the Hunt Club and the Holly Would pictured here and each time I have left the bar happy. So ladies, this is your new shortcut to fabulous hair. After being spoiled in New York with Blow Dry bars, Miami has finally arrived, and I for one am super thankful! Don’t forget to follow the Brickell location on twitter @HairF0rce0nehollywould
