Cement Mixer Putti Putti - Slim Gaillard

...Here's a little styling beauty. From the good people at Tresemme, this is their "Create" Fibre Putty. Available in all good stockists, and some rubbish ones as well...actually, probably only good ones! This hair product comes in a 150ml/129g transparent tub, complete with black screw lid. Being made by Tresemme, you would expect the standard of this product to be almost second to none, and on first impressions it certainly is. Upon opening the tub, the first thing that strikes you is the delicious smell. It's a sweet, fruity kind of smell which I can't quite put my finger on, but it's something I'm a big fan of. Over time, naturally the smell deteriorates, but it still lingers the further you get through the white putty. According to the tub, the product "creates and holds lasting messed up effect," which I think sums it up... Read review

...I have always thought Lego Duplo bricks one of the best construction bricks for young children aged between 2 and 5. This Duplo cement mixer would be ideal as a Christmas present. Fantastic as an individual toy a start to a Duplo collection. This cement mixer would also be ideal if you child has a Duplo basic brick set too. . We all know children love to see Lorries and cement mixers at work. Some building work was going on near my grandson's house when he was about 3. His mother would regularly walk nearby and have to stop for ages watching the builders and the cement mixer. This Duplo cement mixer costs £12.99 from http://shop.lego.com /product/?p=4976&LangId=2057&ShipTo=UK http://www.toysrus.co.uk is selling for £14.99.

... Alberto Vo5 Rework Fibre Putty - My Review SHORT THICK HAIR In short thick hair the VO5 putty holds and moulds, achieving any shape and staying for a good amount of time- not enough for a whole night, perhaps, but at least a few hours. The rework putty will wash out fairly quickly, however, and shines in the light, so not perfect for a party. 10/10 LONG THIN HAIR VO5 is fine for long thin hair for a few hours, holding quite well. However, the putty can be seen in the hair, and large amounts are needed for a good stylle, especially if your hair is particularly long or tends to flop down. The fibre putty will lose its hold much faster that with thick or short hair, as the hair is not strong enough to retain the shape naturally, and will wash out fast. 7/10 CURLY HAIR In curly hair the VO5 fibre putty is fairly...
