Whats going on with Claudia at iliketotalklot?

 

Tons of things going on lately, and I apologize for being a little MIA. I hope you guys enjoyed the recent giveaways that I helped host. I really wanted that Hourglass Ambient Lighting powder myself! I treated myself to a trip to sephora to ease the pain of losing and admired the new Marc Jacobs Shadow Palette, and picked up my first eye treatment from Clarins. I’m 31 and think it’s time I start doing what I can for under eye circles that are starting to form. Anyways, here are some updates on whats to come on the blog!

If anyone has tried this or has another amazing eye cream to suggest, please share in the comment section!

Annaliese Body Care is a line of personal products I am creating using organic butters and oils. I’ve been working on formulating some lip products as well and have started doing a few sales to friends. Right now I have a melting Shea butter and Mango-Shea mix that soaks into the skin. I also have a scrub and lip balms in a handful of scents and flavors. Starting your own business is quite difficult to do at times when you already work full-time, but I really hope this can go somewhere big. It’s a passion of mine and I love creating new products. I hope to share more about the process with you guys as I go take on this journey!

Just tested some nail polish strips that actually work and have fabulous patterns from OMGnailstrips.com. Unlike nail stickers, these strips last long and have a ever growing selection of patterns and colors to choose from. A nail polish that’s applied WITH nail polish remover? Say wha? You’ll find out more when I post the review!

 

J.F Lazartigue sent me their Shea Butter Hair Mask and Straightening Gel to put to the test. The luxurious french hair care line treats me to their products and boy do I feel lucky that I get to share them with you guys! I love a good hair mask and feeling the difference it does I just one try. And having fine hair and a few frizzies, I need a good straightening gel for those humid days when hair goes to hell. JFL has wowed me plenty times in the past and I look forward to trying out the rich mask and gel. If you missed my past reviews, you can see them here, here, and here.

Ferro Cosmetics, leaders in the HD Mineral Makeup field have sent me a TON of products to try, including some yet to be released fall shades. I almost fell out of my seat when the package arrived by surprise. These seriously sent me more than I thought could fit in that little white box. Included was a really sweet note from Krissy herself, Owner and creator of the brand. If you haven’t heard of them, you NEED to read my previous review, as well as the one Tovah  from hautecurvywoman.com did for me too!

 

Greg Pidcock can make me move. Just found this DJ on soundcloud and have been listening to his mixes lately and cannot stop putting them on repeat. I happen to like the house genre of music so if you like that stuff, check him out on soundcloud. And if you don’t know what soundcloud is….omg……best app ever to have on your phone. Streaming free music! And mixes from all kinds of artists that you’d never find anywhere else. Here is the latest he posted. Kinda sexy. Kinda fun. Just sexy house and love it.

I decided I want to straighten my teeth. Again. That’s right. After seeing so many patients (in our office) so happy after doing Invisalign, I have decided that it was time for me to consider doing ortho again, but this time Invisalign and not those terrible wire and brackets I had before. I’m really excited because we even have this device that helps speed up ortho time by almost half! That’s crazy, right? But it’s true and it works.

 

I cant wait to share everything with you guys! Which post are you most looking forward to? Share in the comments below!
