I am back with something I am sure many women can relate to. I have spent an absolute fortune on face creams always trying to find one that I really loved. I have 'problem skin' as I call it where it has a life of its own and never cooperates with me, most days I struggle to get make up to sit right and have a few too many break outs.
When it first came out I heard great things about Aldi's new caviar moisturisers and how they are similar to the La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe cream which has a price tag of a whopping €370 for a 50ml jar. They both contain caviar which is rich in vitamins and proteins and known as an anti-ageing active ingredient. So after spotting it lately in my local Aldi store I picked up the day and night cream and at €8.99 each they are a bargain.
So when it came to biting the bullet and putting on make up I didn't think this cream would work well because of its rich texture even though on the box it claims to be light in texture and perfect for under make up, I have used lighter. I applied a tiny amount of the cream and and added more if I felt some part of my face needed it. I used a make up primer just to give an extra help to my foundation. I applied my foundation with my beauty blender as I always do and it went on and sat perfectly I was thrilled. I did my make up the same way I always do and it lasted all day, there was no difference at all.
Although I have never used the La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe cream, I have been using both these Lacura creams for about a month now and really enjoying them. There has definitely been and improvement in my skin over the last month. Thankfully I don't have many wrinkles to deal with yet but it is recommended to start anti-ageing treatments in your mid 20's. So for €8.99 a jar these are worth every penny in my opinion.
