SHOPPERS are legging it to get to their nearest Aldi store, desperate to nab a brand new La Mer dupe gift set.
So if your skin is feeling lacklustre this winter, but you’re on a budget and can’t afford to break the bank on posh skincare products, then you’ve come to the right place.
Whilst many of us would shudder at the thought of spending over £500 on two beauty products, luckily for you, Aldi has come to the rescue with their new purse-friendly dupe set.
It’s perfect for those who are looking to save a bit of cash, without needing to scrimp on their beauty routine.
It comes after one happy shopper was left overjoyed when she spotted the new middle aisle set in her local Aldi.
Thrilled with her cheap purchase, Lauren Jade Lyon took to social media to alert others, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on Aldi UK Shoppers, a private Facebook group with 333,900 members, Lauren shared a snap of her purchase – the Lacura La Soie Gift Set.
Alongside snaps of her new Specialbuy set, the beauty enthusiast beamed: “Also found in Aldi the dupe to the La Mer Calming Hydration Collection (Worth £520).”
The Aldi set contains the Lacura La Soie Eye Concentrate and Facial Moisturiser, both of which look strikingly similar to La Mer’s Crème de la Mer Moisturising Cream and the Eye Concentrate.
Lauren then confirmed: “I got this for £4.99. Absolutely worth it.
“I managed to get the face cream last year and I’ve been using it ever since.”
Not only this, but Lauren also praised the affordability of the Aldi buys, as she added: “They’re great and so worth the money.”
Thanks to these Aldi products, which are made with ‘ultra luxe formulas’, your skin will feel hydrated and glowy in no time at all – making them perfect for winter.
If that wasn’t enough, according to Aldi, these bargain buys also help to ‘improve the appearance of fine lines and dark circles’ too, which the viral but pricey La Mer products also claim to do.
