Aldi’s best beauty dupes are back but you need to be quick – there’s £6 Estee Lauder copies & the diffuser’s £80 cheaper
WE ALL love getting our hands on a bargain - especially when it's pretty much the same as a pricier item.
And now beauty fans are rushing to the German retailer, Aldi, to pick up the latest drop of beauty dupes that landed in stores yesterday.
Whether you want to add some new self-care items into your life or nab your mum a few relaxing treats in time for Mother's Day - there's loads on offer.
Ashleigh, a money saving pro took to social media to share the budget-friendly goodies she found in her local store.
"Guys, get to Aldi today cause some of their best beauty dupes are returning," she urged her fellow bargain hunters.
The first item the beauty fan spotted was a Collagen lip oil which was a dupe of the Charlotte Tilbury Miracle lip oil which usually costs £28.

Next, Ashleigh spotted a Dramatic lash mascara for £4.99 which was a dupe of the Lancome Hypnose Drama mascara which retails for £29.
"Also returning is the ProNight Plus cream which is a dupe of the Estee Lauder as is the absolute cult-staple ProNight Advanced face serum which is also a dupe for the Estee Lauder as well."
Both of the Aldi products cost just £5.99 each compared to the Estee Lauder ones.

The designer serum costs a whooping £89 whereas the cream costs £72.
"They make the ideal gift for beauty enthusiast mums, providing the effects of premium skincare brands at a fraction of the price," a spokesperson at Aldi said.
If your looking for something a little different but still within the 'self care' range than don't panic.
Also up for grabs this week is a Ceramic Aroma Diffuser for £14.99 which is strikingly similar to the Neom Diffuser which costs £95.
The savvy shopper also found a silk pillowcase and eye mask set for just £5.99 and lastly, she found some Jellycat plushy dupes for just £3.99 each.
She added: "It’s beauty dupes day at Aldi UK with some of your favourites returning! So be quick!"
The clip soon went viral on her TikTok account @ashleighmoneysaver with over 56k views and 1,700 likes.
People were quick to share what goodies they wanted to stock up on.
One person wrote: "Omg the lip oil is finally back, need to get 3 this time."
Another commented: "Managed to get the hairdryer - finally!!!!! No lip oils though."
"Waiting for the hair dryer. Been four times to Aldi since Thursday," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "Wow. Love Aldi for these things!"
When's the best time to shop at Aldi?
WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.
For reduced items - when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi's 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found - if you're quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: "All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates."
That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.
Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store's times by using the supermarket's online shop finder tool.
For Specialbuys - Thursdays and Sundays
Specialbuys are Aldi's weekly collection of items that it doesn't normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store's opening time.
You don't have to head into stores to bag a Specialbuy, though.
They also go on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can pre-order them up to a week in advance.
As long as you spend at least £25, you'll get the items delivered for free.
Remember: once they're gone, they're gone, so if there's something you really want, visit as early as possible
Someone else added: "I’m actually going today lol."
