Lacura makeup at Aldi

Aldi isn't my 'To go to' plave to buy makeup. In a previous blog post, I showed a swatch of a blush I picked up from my local Aldi. It is a cool pink with gold shimmers going through it and it's became one of my favourite blushes. Since buying that and loving it i've decided to pick a couple of things up.
You can find their makeup on their website here.
I decided to try out their concealer. I have had it before but it was that long ago and I don't think I used it a lot, one of them things I just put into the back of the draw. I couldn't remember if it was a good coverage but thought i'd try it out.

The concealer works well under the eyes. That was the main reason I wanted it for. I have really bad under eye darkness and it becomes a pain to cover them up without looking cakey or not covered enough. It does cover them but not completly. I have to continue with the Collection 2000's lasting perfection concealer at the inner and outer corners.

I also picked up their daily moisturiser. I love the packaging of this as it's so easy to get the right amount out. It has shimmers through it which helps even out your skin tone. I have so many products which do this as I love having a moisturier which makes me look dewy to cover my dry skin.

I love the application and the smell of it is gorgeous. It smells of apricots and other fruity smells and reminds me of the summer so much! It's a good base for my makeup and is nearly as good as the clinique dramtically different moisturiser. But i dont find that is moistures my face as well. It sinks in well but i feel like my skin is still dry after application and it just covers it up without hydrating. I'm going to stick at it for longer and see if i change my mind.
