As the cost of living rises, Brits are trying to save money whatever way they can, including switching from big-name brands to affordable offerings.
Aldi is a great place to find dupes of high-end beauty products, with prices starting from as little as £1.99. One particular item from the retail giant's Specialbuys range has been getting loads of praise from Aldi customers - and it costs only £7.49.
The Lacura Caviar Illumination Day Cream from Aldi is a budget-friendly version of luxury brand La Prairie's indulgent lifting and firming face cream, which is priced at an eye-watering £439 for the same amount (50ml).
Sadly, it's only available to buy in stores - so you won't be able to find it on the retailer's website. However, we've listed some other great Aldi skincare buys you can snap up online. See below.
Aldi's Lacura Caviar Illumination Day Cream boasts an anti-ageing formula, containing SPF15 and caviar extract. Its light texture makes it perfect for everyday wear.
Nearly 600 shoppers have given the product five-star reviews on the Aldi website, with some calling it "excellent" and "great value".
The budget face cream looks strikingly similar to the luxurious La Prairie moisturiser but will cost you £432 less.
Giving it five stars, one reviewer said: "Just finished my first jar and can honestly say that it is as good as if not better than all the other brands I have used, including expensive ones.
"It is creamy and rich without being heavy and does exactly what it says it will do on the jar, which is a rare thing in this day and age. Will definitely stay with this brand."
Another impressed shopper added: "Lovely cream, thick but glides on and soaked in really well. Love this face cream."
While someone else penned: "I’ve been using this cream for years & have very sensitive skin it’s lovely & rich helps my dry skin, I’ve used many very expensive ones before discovering this one & would never use anything else."
You can purchase the Lacura Caviar Illumination Day Cream in select Aldi stores across the UK.
