I’ve been testing these gorgeous beauty products by Lani for the past month or so and they are so much better than I imagined. I am a total sucker for green beauty products that not only look gorgeous but are so great for your skin and hair.
Lani has gained a cult status among the vegan community as a brand that doesn’t just say it’s against animal cruelty but actually promotes cruelty-free lifestyle choices.
The brand has donated to over 20 charities to date and throughout 2020 Lani will be donating to the following four charities: Amicii Dog Rescue, Friend Farm Animal Sanctuary, Gut Aiderbichl & Slaughterhouse Survivors.
The Founder
Vi’s interest in setting up a vegan, cruelty free beauty brand started after she went vegan in 2013. Looking at the products she used she quickly realised that most of them weren’t vegan, cruelty-free or made with natural ingredients.
She wanted to create simple, affordable, cruelty-free products that smelt good, felt amazing that really worked; and so Lani was born.
I have always loved the simplicity and efficacy of natural cold-pressed oils.

Review
I received a good selection of 5 products that I couldn’t wait to test out.
All the products are packaged into glass bottles and jars, are made with high quality, food-grade ingredients and are always free of parabens, synthetic fragrances, silicones, mineral oils and animal derived ingredients.

Juice Cleanse Facial Cleansing Oil – £20.99/100ml | 3.5 fl oz
Made with a clarifying, yet hydrating blend of super boosted plant oils and with notes of creamy vanilla, juicy mandarin and sweet orange, it’s the ultimate deep cleansing treatment.
Things it claims to do:
- Lift away makeup and impurities for a deep cleanse.
- Cleanse, balance and hydrate all at once.
- Leave skin looking radiant, supple and nourished.
I loved this silky smooth cleanser and the super soft cloth it comes with. It made cleansing feel like such a treat and my skin absolutely LOVED it!
My skin used to be really oily but as I’ve got older (almost 30 now) it’s become very dry. I do still get the odd hormonal spot (very rarely though) so this deeply cleansed, balanced and hydrated my skin like a dream.
*Juice Cleanse comes with a free, incredibly soft, double sided 100% organic bamboo face cloth

Blue Mint Facial Cleanser – £18.99/65g | 2.29 oz
The first of its kind. Made with a unique & beautifying blend of purifying clay, soothing oats, hydrating coconut and antioxidant rich blue spirulina it gently removes impurities, toxins and light make up.
Things it claims to do:
- Leaves skin super clean yet never stripped
- Gently lifts away impurities, toxins and light make-up
- Balances troubled complexions with soothing oats
- Turns a magical blue upon activation with water

This is a truly unique and beautiful cleanser. It has a beautiful colour that gets even more blue when mixed with water, it’s a truly magical experience to use.
My skin felt cleansed, soothed and refreshed afterwards. I love the ingredients and peppermint smell. Great to wake you up in the morning!

Tropical Super Serum- £21.99/30ml|1.0 fl oz
A potent facial elixir, stars a nutrient-rich blend of tropical oils and divinely scented dawn blooming jasmine to leave your skin incredibly healthy, smooth and luminous.

This serum is full of so much goodness and smells amazing! Jasmine is one of my favourite scents, it’s sweet (but not overly) and just beautiful. It’s like you’re getting a perfume and super serum in one!
It left my skin feeling supple, smooth, hydrated and glowy.

Tropical Cacao Detox Mask – £18.99/50g | 1.7oz
Transform your complexion in just 20 minutes with this phenomenally purifying chocolate mask. The unique powder transforms into a fluffy mousse upon contact with water – releasing its magic and heavenly cacao smell the moment you use it.
Anti-oxidant rich raw cacao, creamy coconut milk and hydrating coconut water work to nourish and revitalise tired skin. Cleansing Australian clays deep clean pores, absorb excess oil and draw out toxins, while powerful anti-inflammatory properties of aloe vera, healing turmeric and vitamin C tone and brighten the skin.

- Deep cleans pores and absorbs excess oils.
- Increases the production of collagen.
- Helps calm blemishes and lighten acne scars.
- Improves skin elasticity.
- Hydrates skin and revitalises tired complexions.
- Delays signs of ageing.

The mousse like texture of this mask is incredible! It’s like you have a dessert on your face (in a wonderful non gross way).
It feels like its deeply cleansing and helping with blemishes. It’s like a fancy mud mask. I love it.
The ingredients are lovely and my skin looks great. I can’t wait to see the longer term effects but it certainly does what it says. Totally wonderful.

Tropical Hair Treatment – £14.99/100ml|3.5 fl oz
The first product Lani made back in 2014 and has become a global bestseller.
Ultra rich and intensively conditioning, a true multi-use hair saviour. The Treatment can be used as an overnight treatment, a pre-shampoo treatment and a frizz taming serum.
Ingredients:
Camellia Oleifera (Camellia) seed oil, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) oil*, Aleurites Moluccana (Kukui) nut oil, Macadamia Integrifolia (Macadamia) nut oil. *Organic ingredient
Things it claims to do:
- Adds shine and lustre
- Softens and rehydrates hair
- Increases hair elasticity and suppleness
- Protects against split ends and breakage
- Tames frizz and flyaways
- Helps to recover damaged and brittle hair
- Makes hair easier to style and straighten
- Soothes dry and itchy scalps
I wasn’t sure what to expect from this treatment and thought it would be like a serum texture but it’s not (think melted coconut oil). It smells divine and has been a lifesaver for my super damaged bleached hair.
The ingredients are lovely and my hair is so much better. I can’t wait to see the longer term effects on my hair but it’s helped it so much already. I love it and will definitely be repurchasing it.

If you love green and vegan skincare and want to feel really pampered Lani are great. All the products are pretty much plastic free (apart from the dropper in serums but you can order them without that for a totally plastic free order).
Orders are also shipped plastic free ( They only use cardboard, acid free tissue, recycled paper stickers and paper tape). If you don’t have enough reasons to love them already!
I really loved testing all these products and they made taking care of my hair and skin so special. They’re fantastic and innovative products that everyone should try. I love them!
Thank you so much Vi for all these stunning products! x
