Those Bambi Salon Two Week Vegan Express Lashes - Review


The Bambi salon is where you can enjoy a quiet, home-based, cruelty-free and vegan salon experience either in Gravesend or in Hartley, Kent. Better for you, better for the environment and better for the animals. The team is made up of two vegan sisters, Gina and Danielle who are on a mission to help make us feel amazing using only ethical and moral brands. Bambi even has a gang that you can sign up to as well. You'll get loads of vegan beauty information including an exclusive #GangPerks offer sent to your inbox every month. They also have a private group on Facebook where you can ask absolutely anything and chat with other members.




Danielle is our lash extension fairy. She loves creating perfect lashes for you to wake up to every, single morning so it's time to get yourself cosy on our super soft blankets and let her work her magic. ​ Danielle understands that 'perfect' is different for every single person so we have a little something to suit everyone. Award-winning, premium quality, lash extensions in 5 different curl types as well as different thickness' and colours. ​ If natural is more your kind of perfect, we also offer lash lifts. One of our most popular and low maintenance treatments to date.

I've had a fair few treatments done at the lovely home salon in Hartly from false lashes to gel toenails. And I've actually managed to try out most of the false lashes that Danielle has available. Danielle kindly took some photos of my lovely looking lashes so I could write another review about these specific lashes the great Bambi Salon.

Two Week Express Lashes £35

If you want the look of a full set of extensions but don't want the maintenance, then Express lashes are for you. The look is created using the same high-quality individual lashes but the process of application is different and quicker. This means they last for two weeks before needing to be removed completely so are perfect for holidays or events. A patch test is needed if you have never had the treatment with us before- your eyes are precious.



I've never been very good at applying false lashes, so when I came across the Vegan Bambi Salon over a year ago now, I loved the idea of someone applying them for me instead. The whole lash experience is a great pick me up and I like to get mine done for any special occasions that I have. This time I needed my false lashes for a long weekend away for a Wedding, so I went for the Two Week Express Lashes. For the first twenty-four to forty-eight hours, you're advised to not get your lashes wet due to the glue still bonding your lashes together. So please keep this in mind when getting your lashes done before any special occasions. For me, my lashes last around four to five days if I go out partying in them, but with extra care, they should last around under twos weeks. Danielle is great at applying all different types of lashes and I'm always happy with the outcome that she's achieved for me!

BeBarefaced Anti Blemish Mattifying Toner - Review



At BeBarefaced we’re committed to helping achieve barefaced confidence through the power of natural ingredients. While we may appear playful, we take our formulations very seriously. If we don't think it’s natural and doing some good then we don't add it in! All our products are made with precision and care to deliver a category-leading performance worthy of your trust. Our high performing formulas focus on carefully selected natural ingredients combined with antioxidants and essential oils, ensuring that our products are honest, natural and effective.

Our anti-blemish toner is specially designed for unbalanced, blemish-prone skin. Formulated with soothing, natural antiseptic tea tree to calm and sanitise congested skin, protecting from further breakouts. Pore minimising salicylic acid helps clear pores, eliminate excess oil and prevent spots. With only natural alcohols, to ensure that it is non-drying and non-irritating. Moisturising glycerin ensures skin is correctly hydrated, preventing that unpleasant ‘overly dried’ feeling. Leaves skin with a silky - smooth, matte finish and prepared for optimal application of further blemish treatment products.

This BeBarefaced Anti Blemish Mattifying Toner from Love Lula leaves my skin feeling clean and soft after use. The toner is a great pick me up for when your skin is feeling a little heavy or greasy throughout the day. I also like using it before I apply a face mask as it makes my skin super clean before I apply the mask. My only problem with this product is that I would prefer a spray bottle to the pour lid that currently has, as a lot of the toner seems to come out at once.

Nature's Kitchen Whipped Cream Coffee & Vanilla Body Scrub - Review



We have developed Nature's Kitchen utilising the very best organic ingredients, not only to protect the skin but actually make it so beautiful and radiant that you won't be able to stop looking in the mirror. Our products are vegan, natural and we only use organic and natural plant and fruit-based ingredients. We never use animal products or cheap filler oils, so skin is super healthy and cared for from the very first time you use Nature's Kitchen. We also don't have to tell you that we never test on animals. We simply don't need to. Our ingredients have been feeding and healing the world for thousands of years.

Looking for a softening body scrub that won't leave your skin dry and sore? Our Whipped Cream Coffee & Vanilla Body Scrub is a mixture of pure Italian ground coffee beans and vanilla pods blended into a beautiful rich cleansing buttercream. The result is a super rich and creamy indulgent body scrub that not only buffs skin gently but leaves it feeling so soft and healthy, you can actually feel the difference.

This Nature's Kitchen Whipped Cream Coffee & Vanilla Body Scrub from Love Lula is a lovely thick body scrub that smells absolutely amazing. It gives my skin (wet and dry) a great exfoliate and leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft after use. I especially like using the scrub before and after waxing, as it helps remove any ingrown hairs that may have gotten stuck and any dead skin.

Emani Lip Shine Oh La La in Red Wine - Review*

Exclusively designed and specifically formulated to benefit sensitive, acne-prone, and ageing skin, each of our products enhance the appearance and well-being of problematic skin. Emani uses only all-natural ingredients to create natural beauty. Emani Vegan Cosmetics combine natural minerals with certified-organic botanicals, oils, and waxes to create quality makeup that enhances your dermatologic health.

Say “Hello!” to your perfect pout. Powered by Mother Nature, this 100% vegan formula is drenched in Vitamin E, natural & organic oils, organic fruit extracts and pure mineral pigments to condition and hydrate your lips. Emani Lip Shine is a long-lasting formula that may be worn alone or over Emani Hydrating Lip Color for a bolder, multi-dimensional look.

This Emani Lip Shine in Red Wine from Love Lula has a great flat applicator which makes it easy to apply the product across my lips evenly. You can easily create a darker or lighter look with this Lip Shine by applying more or less of the product. The darker shade personally lasts on my lips for around half an hour, after this it fades to a lovely lighter shade.  It's a little sicky once applied, but once it's soaked in it doesn't feel too bad. I find this product easy to remove with make-up remover and it doesn't leave any stains which is great. The product itself also has a lovely sweet scent to it, which I love!


• Long-lasting, multi-dimensional colours for every skin tone • Infuses the lips with moisture, never drying • Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that nurtures the lips • Organic fruit and essential oils combined to keep your lips in optimum health • May be used alone or over lipstick for bold colour combinations • Light reflective ingredients give the lips a lustful finish •
