Beauty enthusiasts are flocking to Aldi for its Lacura Multi-Peptide Moisturiser, hailed as an impressive dupe for the luxury Drunk Elephant Lala Retro™ Ceramide Face Moisturiser, a favourite among celebrities like the Kardashians. The original product commands a hefty price tag of £58.00 for a 50ml pot, while Aldi's version is a budget-friendly £6.99, offering a remarkable saving of £51, or an 87 percent reduction in cost.

Both moisturisers promise instant hydration and work towards firming the face. Aldi's Lacura Multi-Peptide Moisturiser is formulated with a potent complex of seven peptides, proteins, and nutrients, and is enriched with Waterlily Extract. This combination is designed to improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity, while also delivering hydrating and anti-ageing benefits. Although the original Drunk Elephant product contains nine peptides compared to Aldi's seven, both feature Waterlily Extract, known for its ability to reduce inflammation, tighten pores, protect skin from environmental damage, and provide moisture.

The Lacura moisturiser is also packed with six essential oils and ceramides, an ingredient highly regarded by skincare experts for its anti-inflammatory properties and its role in strengthening the skin barrier. Despite its rich composition, the cream maintains a lightweight texture, making it suitable for everyday use. It offers an immediate hydration boost and helps minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, presenting a luxurious feel at an affordable price point.

Aldi's health and beauty brand, Lacura, is renowned for its 'dupes' – clever copycat products that mimic luxury favourites without the high cost. Beyond the popular multi-peptide moisturiser, Aldi offers other skincare must-haves. Shoppers looking to extend their summer glow can find the Lacura Tanning Drops (30ml) for £3.99, an 89 percent cheaper alternative to Drunk Elephant’s £35 version, saving £31 per bottle. Additionally, skincare gurus can discover Aldi’s Lacura Vitamin C + Turmeric Oil for £5.99, designed to brighten dull complexions and reduce redness. This oil contains Ginger and Sweet Orange Essential Oils, alongside a blend of Raspberry, Evening Primrose, and Jojoba Oil, promising to rejuvenate skin and leave it soft and supple.
