And their recent announcement this will have dupe fans racing to the middle aisles.
The bargain supermarket is launching its own version of Huda Beauty's much-loved easy bake setting powder and concealer.
Formulated with hero ingredients including Vitamin E and Sweet Almond Oil, the discount chain's in-house brand Lacura could save you up to £29 with its new items.
So if you're looking to level up your makeup bag on a budget, you've come to the right place.
Available in Aldi stores from May 1, the latest additions arrive in the middle aisle as natural makeup trends shift towards softer, blurred finishes such as TikTok's viral "cloud skin" look.
The Lacura full coverage concealer will be priced at £3.99 and is available in six shades ranging from light to dark.
The creamy, long-wearing must-have promises to "brighten, blur and conceal" and creates a natural matte finish..
And the best part? It could save you £22.01 compared to Huda Beauty's £26 faux filter concealer.
To finish off the look, beauty fanatics can also pic up the Lacura Faultless Finish Setting Powders, priced at £4.99 for a 25g tub.
Available in Light, Medium and Deep, the subtly pigmented formula "helps to lock in makeup" while providing light coverage for a faultless matte finish.
I tried Aldi's new anti-aging skincare range
Aldi bosses say it is formulated with Vitamin E to create a silky-smooth powder that blurs the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without cracking while also keeping excess oil at bay.
And it works out as £29.01 cheaper than the Huda Beauty easy bake loose baking and setting powder which retails at £34 for a slightly smaller 20g tub.
It's not the only beauty dupes the supermarket giant is set to drop on May 1, either.
The much-loved Lacura Glamour Wand Highlighter (£3.99, 12ml) and Lacura Moisturising Peptide Lip Treatments (£2.99, 10ml) will also be hitting the middle aisle on that date.
Promising to define, pop and contour, the highlighter gives a subtle glow while adding a perfect finishing touch to makeup looks. Just simply add to the cheeks, browbone, nose and eyes!
Meanwhile, the lip treatments will be available in three variants - unscented, watermelon and salted caramel.
Formulated with Shea Butter, Peptide, and Capuacu, the high-performing treatments provide long-lasting hydration that will restore dry lips for a visibly softer, plumper and glossy finish.
And did we mention that it's a dupe for Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skin?
Aldi's latest range of makeup beauty buys are available in stores from May 1, while stocks last.

What opponents of the EU-US trade deal get wrong
The critics were quick to jump in. Soon after the European Commission struck its trade deal with President Donald Trump on July 27th, it was being savaged in European capitals. François Bayrou, the French prime minister, called it a 'dark day when an alliance of free peoples, united to affirm their values and defend their interests, resolves to submit'. Friedrich Merz, Germany's chancellor, worried about 'severe damage' to the German economy. Viktor Orban, Hungary's populist leader, twisted the knife, saying that Mr Trump 'ate Ursula von der Leyen for breakfast'.

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. Remember: once they're gone, they're gone, so if there's something you really want, visit as early as possible

Dollar advances against peers after strong GDP data and with Fed in focus
NEW YORK, July 30 (Reuters) - The dollar advanced against major peers on Wednesday following better-than-expected U.S. GDP data and as investors awaited the outcome of the Federal Reserve's policy meeting later in the session. U.S. economic growth rebounded more than expected in the second quarter, expanding by 3% compared with an estimate of 2.4% based on a Reuters poll of economists. The Fed is widely expected to leave interest rates unchanged, rebuffing persistent calls by President Donald Trump to cut interest rates. The euro extended losses against the dollar following the U.S. GDP data. It was down 0.65% to $1.1471, on track for the fifth straight session of losses and trading at its lowest level since June 23. The euro is also poised to record its first monthly drop in 2025, following a sharp reaction to a U.S.-European Union trade deal earlier this week. The dollar index added to its gains after the GDP report. It was up 0.56% at 99.442, hitting its highest since May 20 and on course to post its first month of gains this year. U.S. Treasury yields were mostly higher ahead of news from the Fed. The 2-year note yield, which typically moves in step with interest rate expectations for the Fed, rose 2.7 basis points to 3.902%. "I think people are reading too much into the GDP numbers; nobody in markets should think GDP was that weak in Q1 and that strong in Q2 even though the big drivers were inventories and net exports," said Steve Englander, head of global G10 FX Research at Standard Chartered in New York. "I will add the two quarters together and they averaged about 1.5% GDP growth per quarter, which is not a recession but qualifies as mediocre." Trade agreements struck with Japan last week and the EU over the weekend signalled a renewed U.S. commitment to global engagement, easing investor concerns. Investors' focus is now on negotiations between China and the U.S. after officials agreed to seek an extension of their 90-day tariff truce. But Trump upped the ante against India on Wednesday, announcing that a 25% tariff on imports starting August 1. "Trump can afford to be harsh on India because he's gotten a bunch of deals already and he's trying to pressure them to be more forthcoming. . . I don't think the tariffs will end as harsh as he hinted but he does want to negotiate with India on terms favorable to the US," Englander said. Data showed on Wednesday that the German economy contracted in the second quarter, while France's economy beat forecasts. The spotlight will be on comments from BoJ Governor Kazuo Ueda as investors hope the trade deal between Japan and the U.S. paves the way for the central bank to raise rates on Thursday. The dollar was firmer 0.28% to 148.88 against the yen , hitting a two-week high. Against the Swiss franc , the dollar strengthened 0.65% to 0.811 francs, reaching its highest since June 24.
