Lacura Miracle Cream 50g

Product Information

A clear, oily liquid that comes from refining crude oil. Even though it is a highly controversial ingredient, the scientific consensus is that it is a safe, non-irritating and effective emollient and moisturizer working mainly by occlusivity. It can boost the effectiveness of phenoxyethanol (and other preservatives) and as an added bonus it feels nice on the skin too. Aldi says: ‘Get your skin looking picture perfect with this clear primer. Whether you’re using this alone or under make-up your selfies will never be the same again!’

So, we were pretty intrigued when Aldi announced that its newest cream was inspired by Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream. Story Saved You can find this story in My Bookmarks.

Create a look that lasts with the addition of this setting powder to your make-up collection.’ The unique thing about petrolatum is that it is the most effective occlusive agent known today. While the occlusivity of mineral oil is in the same league as the occlusivity of plant oils, petrolatum is in a league of its own. It sits on top of the skin and hinders so-called transepidermal water loss (TEWL) like nothingelse.

As for why? Well, more often than not, Aldi beauty productsdo actually live up to the hype – not just in terms of the dangerously close copies of popular branding, but with the formulas and ingredients lying inside the containers as well. Having compared these three products, I can say that I am not unimpressed with Aldi, especially when it comes to the Lacura Healthy Glow which contains very similar active ingredients as Pixi's Glow Tonic and appears to be working well. The Miracle Cream offers decent skin protection, albeit for a shorter amount of time than the Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream, but is definitely good value for money when comparing the price. Aldi's hand wash however has been a let down so I will not be repurchasing that one.If you’re part of Urban Decay’s cult following, setting spray is probably high on your list of must-haves. Can Aldi’s equivalent hold up in the heat? The only good thing we can write about Ascorbyl Palmitate is that there is an in-vitro (made in the lab, not on real people) study showing that it might be able to boost collagen production.
