Aldi continues to attract budget savvy shoppers, this time with their latest beauty dupe said to be inspired by cult classic Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. Elemis' offering costs £46 for 100g, whilst Aldi's version Lacura Cleansing Balm costs £6.99 for 90g.
The price difference - you could save £39.01 with Aldi' s dupe - is so stark, it already has an army of fans. One such fan is TikTok influencer and small business owner, Beth Wainwright who shared her discovery of the Elemis dupe on her TikTok profile @bethwainwrightt.
Speaking in the video, she said: "The Aldi dupe smelt like the Bobbi Brown face base and the texture is quite similar to the Elemis actuallym it’s £6.99 so get to Aldi.” As reported by the Liverpool ECHO, the product description says: “Try an alternative luxury way of taking off your make-up with the Lacura Cleansing Balm.
"The lightweight formula is enriched with moringa oil, shea butter and cocoa butter. It transforms from a solid balm into a silky smooth oily texture to remove make-up and dirt leaving your skin deeply cleansed.
"Implement it into your daily routine to help your skin feel balanced, refreshed and hydrated.” It says it is also suitable for all skin types.
One happy TikToker commented on the video saying: “I got it before… it’s so good. I’ll be running up to Aldi now.” While another added: “You're so lucky getting all the dupes from Aldi, when I go in they never got anything lol.”
A third said: “Omg I got this and thought it smelt like Elemis but it does actually smell like the Bobbi Brown. I feel like that’s what I was remembering.”
One super keen shopper said: "I got two today" whilst another wondered if the Aldi dupe was inspired by another high-end brand Emma Hardie when they wrote: "It’s a dupe of Emma Hardie, it’s exactly the same?"
You cannot purchase this product online currently so hopefully it is on the shelves in the closest Aldi to you.
