– Aldi’s costs just £1.50
As a beauty journalist, I've tested countless moisturisers from luxury brands, some exceeding £100. Yet, price isn't everything; many excellent moisturisers cost just a few pounds.
You can find these bargains on your next shopping trip, typically costing around £10 or less. Surprisingly, some rival high-end brands, with one standout performer priced at just £1.49.
ALDI Lacura Q10 Day Cream - £1.49 My skin usually feels tight, requiring rehydration with mists. Surprisingly, this moisturiser kept my skin hydrated all day despite the dry weather. Absolute bargain!
Waitrose Pure Day Cream - £3.50 I had high hopes for this Waitrose moisturiser. Designed for sensitive skin with soothing ingredients like chamomile and aloe vera. Fragrance-free, lightweight, but not deeply hydrating.
M&S Clarify Oil Free Moisturiser SPF30 - £12.50 This moisturiser from M&S has a watery texture, but absorbs quickly, leaving a lightweight, non-greasy feel. It keeps skin hydrated all day, but fragrance may irritate sensitive skin.
Superdrug Naturally Radiant Brightening Day Cream - £7.99 Adored this moisturiser with its thick, non-greasy texture. It hydrates and absorbs well without leaving a cast. Fragrance reminiscent of hot cross buns.
