ALDI is set to delight beauty enthusiasts with a fresh wave of budget-friendly beauty buys, including both new additions and returning fan favorites. The supermarket has garnered significant attention for its impressive range of skincare and make-up products, many of which have gone viral for their quality and affordability, often serving as 'dupes' for high-end brands. These exciting new and returning items are hitting shelves on Thursday, August 21st, with prices starting from just £2.99.
Among the standout offerings are fragrances and make-up essentials. The much-loved Hotel Collection Eau de Parfum is making a grand return, known for being excellent dupes for luxury Jo Malone fragrances. Priced at £6.49 for a 100ml bottle, shoppers can choose from three enticing scents: Pomegranate, Peony Blush, and Poppy & Barley. For complexion perfection, the Lacura Concealer With Vitamin C is available in six shades for £3.99. This makeup bag staple is formulated to target dark circles and discoloration with vitamin C, and is thought to be a dupe for the Clinique concealer, which retails for significantly more.
