'Balancing face serum' Biofficina Toscana - Review by Sissylove85

Hello everyone! 
The product I review for you today is a face serum with rebalancing properties.

Italiano per favore!

I'll talk about the 'rebalancing face serum' from Biofficina Toscana. In fact, this serum is not my purchase, but my sister. She has the skin face very similar to mine, and she decided to take this serum because it's delicate and calming.

How to use a serum? The techniques used are: take a few drops and spread on your face after cleansing and before applying cream, or adding a few drops directly in the cream when you apply it, or even making a kind of intensive evening treatment by applying a little more drops.

Let's now talk about Biofficina Toscana: as you can guess from the name this is an Italian company, specifically their headquarters is located in Lucca and their creed is to use organic ingredients on Km 0, the products are not tested on animals and as a rule overall everything they create is very low environmental impact. I ADORE... 

It's easy to find this brand in sales online or you can check in their site Biofficina Toscana (the site is in italian).

Prices may seem a little bit high, but I think even more so for what they offer (both for us our furry friends and the environment!).

For this serum specifically speak about € 13.50 for 30ml, but do not forget that it is a serum, then you need three/four drops for one application.

The bottle (frosted glass that prevents the light from spoiling the contents) has a integrated dropper, which makes application easy and no waste. I have personally tried the application of this serum and I have to say that although oily absorbs fairly quickly. It has a delicate floral scent: the notes that I perceive are mainly mallow and calendula; I find it absolutely nice!

Unfortunately at the moment I cannot tell you the performance over time because I'm not using it and especially because it was bought by very little, but I can definitely tell you that it has an INCI five stars (I'll leave you to the bottom of this post as always). The function of this serum rebalancing is just to rebuild the protective lipid layer of sensitive skin using soothing ingredients such as calendula, mallow and camomilla. Non being a full review, but purely descriptive, I hope you still have been help. Thanks as always for reading my post ^_^ 

Bye everyone and see you soon!

'Siero viso riequilibrante' Biofficina Toscana - RecensionebySissylove85

Ciao a tutti!
Il prodotto che recensirò per voi oggi è un siero per il viso dalle proprietà riequilibranti.

English please!

Si tratta appunto del 'siero viso riequilibrante' della Biofficina Toscana. In realtà questo siero non è un mio acquisto, ma di mia sorella. Lei ha la pelle del viso molto simile alla mia, ed ha deciso di prendere questo siero perché è delicato e lenitivo.

Come si usa un siero? Le tecniche più usate sono quelle di prendere alcune gocce e stenderle sul viso subito dopo la detersione e prima della crema, oppure aggiungendo qualche goccia alla crema al momento di applicarla, oppure ancora facendo una specie di trattamento intensivo serale applicando uno strato più cospicuo.

Parliamo della Biofficina Toscana: come potrete intuire dal nome si tratta di un'azienda italianissima, nello specifico la loro sede si trova a Lucca ed il loro credo è quello di usare ingredienti ecobiologici a Km 0, i prodotti non sono testati sugli animali e come regola generale tutto quello che creano è a bassissimo impatto ambientale. ADORO...
Potete trovare facilmente questa marca sia nella vendita online che in vari punti vendita specificati anche nel loro sito Biofficina Toscana

I prezzi possono sembrare un peletto elevati, ma a mio parere nemmeno più di tanto per tutto quello che offrono (sia a noi che ai nostri amichetti pelosi ed all'ambiente!).
Per questo siero in particolare parliamo di circa € 13,50 per 30 ml, ma non dimenticate che è un siero, quindi occorrono tre/quattro gocce ad applicazione.

La boccetta (in vetro satinato che evita alla luce di rovinare il contenuto) ha un 'dispenser' contagocce integrato, che rende l'applicazione facile e senza sprechi. Ho personalmente provato la stesura di questo siero ed ho visto che, pur essendo oleoso si assorbe abbastanza velocemente. Ha un profumo floreale molto delicato: le note che percepisco principalmente sono la malva e la calendula; lo trovo assolutamente piacevole!

Sfortunatamente al momento non posso dirvi la resa nel tempo perchè non sono io ad usarlo e soprattutto perchè è stato comprato da pochissimo, ma posso sicuramente dirvi che ha un INCI da cinque stelle, che come sempre vi lascerò in fondo all'articolo.
La funzione di questo siero riequilibrante è quella appunto di ricostruire lo strato lipidico protettivo della pelle sensibile usando ingredienti lenitivi come la calendula, la malva e la camomilla.

Non essendo una recensione completa, ma puramente descrittiva, spero che vi sia comunque stata di aiuto. Grazie come sempre di aver letto il mio post ^_^ Come sempre vi lascio con l'INCI a seguire.
Ciao a tutti e alla prossima!

'Vice 2' Urban Decay - Review by Sissylove85

Hello everyone!

Today I'm talking about a makeup eyes product that I love  to the madness! It's the eyeshadow palette 'Vice 2' from Urban Decay.

Italiano per favore!

Let's begin by saying that Urban Decay is my favorite brand for eyeshadows, because over the years I've bought several palettes (which I will talk in other posts) and their yield was always superb. In fact, in every palette I found the same super color pigmentation, the extreme softness of the formulation and the good wear! Not to mention the packaging always fun and well chosen, and the names that each eyeshadow has ^ _ ^

Urban Decay is sold here in Italy exclusively by Sephora, though it was not always so! In fact it arrived here only in 2007 (if I remember correctly ^ _ ^).
Before you could only be purchased in e-commerce and there was to be careful not to buy from US.
At that time the most famous product, and most wanted was the Primer Potion (I'll do a review on that too!) And I remember that I ordered it on Ebay from an English seller. After a few years, when Urban Decay has landed here in Italy and I saw "live" eyeshadows, I bought my first palette and it was true love!

But let's talk now of Vice 2 ^ _ ^
It was sold at a price of approximately € 49.00 (about $ 62,00). As I said, the packaging is beautiful. Inside there is a huge mirror, a brush twice (other than those senseless sponges!) And then there are 20 eye shadows that speak for themselves:

As you can see the colors are mixed, the first and the last row are the most neutral, while the two central rows have more vibrant colors and with whom you can indulge (Beatiful!!)

Guess what are my favorite colors?! ^ _ ^
Then we want to mention the names ?! * _ * Wow ...

Now I show you the swatches of this wonderful palette:

Now, if you wanna know my opinion (and if you want to get a few laughs, and if you want to see my bunnies stand me while I take them!) I leave you below the link to the video review of the 'Vice 2'.

I recommend you don't forget to subscribe to my channel! ^ _ ^
Let me grow with you ^ _ ^
Thanks for reading my post and we'll see next time, bye everyone!!

'Vice 2' Urban Decay - Recensione by Sissylove85

Ciao a tutti!
Oggi vi parlo di un prodotto makeup per occhi che amo alla follia! Si tratta della palette di ombretti Vice 2 della Urban Decay.

English please!

Parto col dire che la Urban Decay è la mia marca preferita per gli ombretti, perchè negli anni ho acquistato diverse palette (di cui vi parlerò in altri post) e la loro resa è stata sempre superba.
In ogni palette infatti ho riscontrato la stessa super pigmentazione del colore, l'estrema morbidezza della formulazione e la durata ottima! Senza parlare del packaging sempre divertente ed azzeccato, e dei nomi che ogni ombretto ha ^_^

La marca Urban Decay viene venduta qui in Italia in esclusiva da Sephora, anche se non è stato sempre così! Infatti è arrivata qui da noi solo nel 2007 (se non ricordo male ^_^).
Prima poteva essere acquistata solo nell'e-commerce e c'era da stare attente a non acquistarla dall'America, perchè potevi anche incappare nelle spese salate della dogana!
Allora il prodotto più famosi, più ricercato, più desiderato era il Primer Potion (farò una review anche su quello!) e mi ricordo che, pur di averlo, lo ordinai su Ebay da un venditore inglese. Poi quando la Urban Decay è sbarcata qui in Italia ed ho visto "dal vivo" gli ombretti, ho acquistato la mia prima palette ed è stato amore vero!

Ma parliamo ora della Vice 2 ^_^
Era venduta al prezzo di circa € 49,00. Come dicevo il packaging è bellissimo. All'interno c'è uno specchio enorme, un pennello doppio (altro che quelle spugnettine insensate!) e poi ci sono 20 ombretti che si commentano da soli:

Come potete vedere i colori sono misti, la prima e l'ultima fila sono i più neutral, mentre le due file centrali hanno colori più vivaci e con cui ci si può sbizzarrire (Beeeelliiii!!)
Indovinate un po' quali sono i miei colori preferiti ?! ^_^
Poi vogliamo parlare dei nomi?! *_* Wow...

Ora vi mostro anche gli swatches di questa meravigliosa palette:

Ora, se volete sapere la mia (e se volete farvi quattro risate, e se volete vedere i miei coniglietti che mi sopportano mentre li riprendo!) Vi lascio qui sotto il link al video review della 'Vice 2'.

Mi raccomando non vi dimenticate di iscrivervi al canale! ^_^
Fatemi crescere insieme a voi ^_^
Grazie di aver letto il mio post e ci vediamo alla prossima, ciao a tutti!!

Bunny cleanliness and health - By Sissylove85

Hi everyone!
Here I am with a new post. Today we speak of what we must do to keep your bunny clean and healthy.

Italiano per favore!

Bunnies are very clean animals, even cats, so they think themselves to clean, however there are some precautions that should be taken. Let's see what its are.

The cage 
Obviously it don't clean itself! You have to clean it at least twice a week emptying the contents and wiping with a sponge that you will use only for this operation. Use water and a thimbleful of microscopic and delicate soap as neutral as possible, as always the intimate soap is the best. The key at this point is to rinse the cage as best as possible, shall not be any trace of soap because, even if we use a mild and delicate soap, it is always a chemical agent that may cause annoyance to their delicate skin. When the cage is dry, spray a little animal sanitizing (first make sure it's okay for rabbits, I remind you that several products for cats are toxic to them), this step is not mandatory, but it can help prevent dermatitis and minor troubles. The cage is now clean and fragrant!

The litter
In market there are various types, there are three main: the gravel or litter, wood shavings plywood and the pellet (compressed wood in the shape of cylinders). After trying all three types I can say with certainty that the best is the pellet, because it absorbs and retains better a minimum odors, especially in summer; unfortunately, bunny pellet litter is a bit expensive, then what? Simple! Buy the pellet used for the heater, they sell it in DIY stores and household goods. Put in the cage a layer of pellets and then a layer of dry hay, so our bunnies will not get hurt with claws. After this operation, the cage is ready to accommodate our bunny.

Paws
Every now and then it may happen that our bunnies getting dirty paws because, alas, walking on dirty litter... Upstream it would be better if they had the cage divided into sections, one where they eats, one where they makes their needs and the rest for play and relax; I confess that I tried to do several times this division, but Romeo has always made his own! So if your bunny is stubborn and them paws dirty, you can clean them with wet wipes specific for animals hair, I recommend you never use these wipes to clean the intimate parts or the inside of the ears of rabbits, you may risk irritation to no avail.

Check them out!
Check your bunny often, especially in the interior of the ears, nose and private parts: its must be kept clean; if not, call your vet. You can understand a lot about the health of your bunny simply by controlling: for example, if the inside of the front paws dirty he/she may be cooled, because of course they use their paws to wipe the nose.

The hair 
At certain times of the year, bunnies lose several hairs. To prevent the emergence of a hairball in the stomach to force lick, you should make it a habit to spend on a hair brush that eliminate excess hair, the adhesive you use on your clothes, and you have to brush them with a soft brush or a fine-tooth comb, remind to be very very delicate.

The claws 
Cut the claws is a task that falls to us. In nature its shorten force to dig and go on the ground, but our bunnies live with us, and in most cases they walk on tiles that do not help at all in filing their super strong nails. Arm yourself with patience and the special clippers sells in pet stores. You have to be more careful because under bunnies nails there are many nerve endings. If you look at the claw it has a first part that keeps getting white rose, just like ours, but beware! You don't have to cut the top of the white part, because there are still blood vessels; for not making mistakes and accidentally hurt your bunny is best to check the claws more often rather than less often cut close to the pink part. Another important thing is to pay attention to sudden movements: your bunny hardly will be standing there to get a manicure! Personally I found a method that works with Romeo, but may not be valid for all the bunnies: do you remember when you take a kitten by the scruff? I tried with Romeo, without pulling him out! In practice, I keep him in my arms, I take it gently but firmly by the collar with one hand and with the other cue the claw (it's easier to do than to say); alternatively ask for help from someone, one of the two holding the bunny catch (delicate, I recommend!) and the other cuts the claws, I suggest you tocover their eyes during this operation, they should be more calm.

The pesticide 
Let's speak briefly of the pesticide: your best friend is a vet, always remember that! However I can tell you that if the bunny doesn't come out of the house, you probably don't need to use them. Just in case you have a dog or a cat in the house, you need to protect your bunny. Not all pesticides are good for them, some are (guess what?) toxic. Even the pesticides used on the other house pets should be safe for bunnies. So be careful with the choice of the pesticide and ask to the vet.

Now that we have a smattering of attention paid to have for our furry loving bunnies, always remember to consult your vet if you have any further questions, especially about their health, and to love them as they love you, then soooooooooo much!
If you have any questions I'm here, do not hesitate to contact me ^ _ ^
Bye bye to all and see you next post!
