There’s nothing like freshly-cut hair to add a spring to your step, but over time split ends can make your hair look frizzy and dull.

Luckily, our TRESemmé hair rescue team landed in Superdrug stores, to guide shoppers on how to battle their hair demons using TRESemmé Split Remedy.

The TRESemmé team introduced the new Split Remedy collection using their handy hair toolkit - which clearly showed Superdrug shoppers the effects of the Split Mend and Protect Treatment.

We unleashed chaos by spreading the alluring scent of the new Lynx Attract for Him and for Her throughout the UK.

The Lynx Attract phenomena had already reached ASDA, Wembley when Lynx For Girls super fans camped outside overnight to be the first to get their hands on the new fragrance.

Superdrug customers were mesmerized by the mysterious happenings that surrounded them in-store as a whiff of Lynx Attract scented the air.

Our gorgeous models also teamed up with Supermodel Abbey Clancy with a mission to create mass attraction at the exciting VIP pink carpet launch at The Strand.

When interviewed on stage at the launch Abbey said, “This is the first time in history that Lynx has launched a fragrance for girls and it’s very exciting that lots of girls are going have lots of men after them."

Our lovely Lil-lets female brand ambassadors hit the town to talk about new look Lil-Lets with female students and shoppers in university and high street locations nationwide.

Is it going to end? Are the aliens coming to collect us? Will it be the last Lynx ever? Who knows…

…one thing is for certain though, Lynx are not taking any chances and it is, as they say, better to be safe than sorry.

As the UK’s largest clothing, beauty and fashion exhibition, Clothes Show Live is a highly anticipated event held once a year just before Christmas at the NEC, Birmingham.

This year we were delighted to attend with Nailene, a salon quality, innovative artificial nail brand.

Following an in-depth training day at our Windsor head office, our N2O nail and lash advisors were let loose at the Clothes Show Live to introduce and apply Revlon eyelashes and Nailene’s new Ultra Adhesive Tabs, which are acetone-free and glue-free, stick on tabs that come with a peel off sheet, making them easy to apply straight to your own nails with minimal fuss. The event was filled with enthusiastic and keen attendees; customers were given the option to have their nails or eyelashes applied, or even both after purchase! The stand was very busy and generated a lot of interest for the products, there were many comments on the innovation of the slide and roll off function of the Ultra Tabs.

Stand visitors also had the option to purchase the products on site to take home or have them professionally applied straight away. Lots of visitors chose this option:  enjoying the luxury of sitting back, relaxing and having their nails and eyelash treatments done by our attentive specialists. What a luxury!

It’s not always easy to believe when it’s pouring down with rain outside, but the Southern Water region has been classed as an area of severe water stress, with climate change and population growth putting further pressure on resources.

To combat this, Southern Water is changing the way it supplies and bills its domestic customers by launching a comprehensive Metering Programme – a first for the UK water industry.

Working with N2O and Groundwork South East, Southern Water has designed the programme to offer an opportunity for wide ranging customer engagement on the key issues of saving water, saving energy and saving money.

Launching today, 2nd August, and for six days only, Japan’s Prime Brew, Kirin Ichiban, presents their pop up Yatai restaurant offering delicious bamboo-skewered Kushiage, Kirin beer, shortlisted film competition finalists and the opportunity to own original, commissioned street art.

Designed to engage all the senses, the Kirin Ichiban Yatai is a unique collaboration between premium Japanese beer brand, Kirin Ichiban; top London Japanese chefs, Yasuhiro Mineno and Shinya Ikeda; exciting short film makers entered in the Kirin First Cut film competition; contemporary art collective, Soulful Gallery; post-earthquake, fundraising, Play for Japan; brand placement agency, Be Communications, and experiential agency, N2O Limited. Working together, they have created a pop up Yatai bringing together the old traditions of Japan with new creativity and technology.

To anchor the ephemeral pop up Yatai restaurant in its London Brick Lane setting, the creative team at N2O commissioned art collective, Soulful Gallery, to produce an outstanding series of Japanese urban street art walls – complete with hand painted brickwork, graffiti, peeling posters and fantastical traditional and kawaii characters.

Creating an atmospheric backdrop for the Yatai, each bespoke wall section is an individual work of high quality art. And, one, or more, can be yours!

Yatai diners, art collectors and anyone with seriously good taste (and wall space) are invited to bid, in a six day-long Silent Auction, for the original, street art wall panels. Monies raised will go to Kirin's and Play for Japan’s supported charity, the Japan Society Tohoku Earthquake Relief Fund.

Bidding begins at 18:00 BST Tuesday 2nd August and ends at 23:00 BST Monday 8th August 2011. To download a Bid Sheet and place a silent bid, click here. For the Silent Auction Terms and Conditions and Conditions of Sale, click here.

To book a delicious food experience at the Kirin Yatai, visit www.kirinfirstcut.co.uk 

The bespoke ‘walls with street art’ panels, created uniquely for this exciting pop up Yatai experience, will become the property of the lucky highest bidders.

As part of 2011’s BBC Good Food Show and Gardeners’ World event, Flora pro.activ sponsored a garden in the Gardeners’ Green area of Birmingham’s NEC between 15th and 19th June.

Our brand ambassadors discovered that 90% of people they spoke to didn’t know their cholesterol number! With high cholesterol significantly increasing the risk of heart disease, and heart disease being the primary cause of premature death in the UK, this was a worrying figure.

Flora pro.activ products are clinically proven to help reduce cholesterol as part of a healthy lifestyle and we were very proud of our brand ambassadors as they helped to educate and inform visitors.

You can check out more great pictures form the event here.
