I’ve found an unreal Aldi middle aisle bargain to make skin glow – I use it everyday & it even cools you down on holiday
BEAUTY buffs are racing to their local Aldi for a new middle aisle bargain that they reckon is a dupe of a £25 shimmer spray.
With summer just around the corner, getting out make-up to stay in place is hard enough – so who doesn’t want a setting spray that has an added sparkle?
And if you’re not keen on forking out a small fortune for the pleasure, budget supermarket Aldi has you covered.
It has dropped a £4.99 setting spray with added shimmer.
The Lacura Shimmer Setting Spray comes in two hues of bronze and champagne.
And not only is it cruelty free, it also contains green tea extract and chamomile to be kind to your skin.
Beauty mad Emma Louise described the mist as “unreal”.
“This product is unreal,” the beauty whizz shared.
“I use mine everyday and it’s good to cool you down in this heat with some extra shimmer.”
Aldi’s social media team took to Instagram to showcase the Specialbuy bargain.
“Don’t mind if we do,” they penned.
“Run to the middle aisle for this little bottle of stardust.”
Lisa Boney dubbed it a “really good product” just 24 hours after picking it up.
“I bought mine yesterday,” Holly Power beamed.
Some shoppers even claimed the sparkling bottle was a dupe for ICONIC London’s £25 Prep-Set-Glow Hydrating Mist.
It’s a whopping £20 cheaper than the luxury version.
Best beauty dupes
Fabulous' Beauty Editor, Tara Ledden revealed the cheaper version of your favourite beauty products that you should have in your cupboard.
“A huge 55% of us would like to spend less on our beauty routines according to new research from E.l.f. Cosmetics, so it’s no wonder there’s millions of #dupe videos on Tiktok.
“While some dupes are easy to spot given their look-a-like packing, they’re often lacking when it comes to the contents.
“In fact, some of the best dupes look nothing like the luxury product they’re a dead-ringer for – and, trust me, they’re the ones you want.”
REAL: Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer, £32.50 DUPE: Natural Collection Bronzer, £3.50 which is a saving of £29. The Natural Collection Bronzer comes in more shades, although it doesn’t have a mirror in the compact.
REAL: Milk Make-up Hydro-Grip Primer, £35 DUPE: E.l.f. Power Grip Primer, £10. These two share a similar green hue, as well as the same long-wearing, mattifying properties – although, E.l.f’s is so popular it’s just as hard to get hold of.
REAL: Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick, £28 DUPE: L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Satin Lipstick Beige A Nu, £8.99. The shades of these two lipsticks are virtually identical on the lips, although while Charlotte Tilbury’s is matte, the L’Oreal Paris Lipstick has a satin finish – which actually makes it more comfortable if you’re wearing all day.
REAL: Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation, £40 DUPE: Collection Lasting Perfection Matte Foundation, £6.99. While they don’t look alike from the outside, the formula, consistency and staying power of both foundations is pretty similar – unfortunately, the Collection only comes in 20 shades vs Estee Lauder’s 60 options.
REAL: Glossier Boy Brow, £20 DUPE: Essence Make Me Brow Gel, £2.50. There’s a whole Reddit thread dedicated to this dupe, so you know it’s got to be good. They both have a waxy consistency and added fibres to make brows look fuller. I have to say, the shade range is far better with Boy Brow, but if you’re brunette, there’s plenty of Essence shade options to try.

“Add this Lacura Shimmer Setting Spray to your routine to bring a summer glow to your skin,” Aldi bosses said.
“Helping to set your makeup for the day whilst adding a glowing finish for a summer look even on those dull days.
“Choose from two shades or treat yourself to both for a varied choice each day.”
The Aldi shimmer spray can be used in the exact same way as the ICONIC London mist.
That is, to prep skin before applying make-up, to set your glam in place or to simply give you a radiant gloss when your face is looking lacklustre.
Both sprays have extracts of chamomile and green tea to help condition your skin and save you from dullness.
