As the recession hit 2008-2012, Aldi's popularity grew as consumers became more price-conscious. The supermarket giant continued it's expansion in Ireland between 2013-2018, while refurbishing existing stores. By 2018, Aldi had over 130 shops throughout the country. The chain began to focus on expanding its range of Irish-made products and supporting local producers. In 2023, Aldi had over 140 stores in Ireland.

Aldi fans rejoice over new Lacura Watermelon Serums which are dupe for cult K-beauty buy and a staggering 84% cheaper
GLOW Recipe fans, assemble. Budget supermarket Aldi has revealed it is launching two brand new Lacura Watermelon Serums that are dupes for the cult K-beauty brands Watermelon Glow drops. Glow Recipe has two renditions of its beloved watermelon serum - the 'dew' and 'hue', the latter of which has a bronzing effect. But at £32 for a 40ml bottle, they're not a product most Brits are picking up too regularly amid the cost of living crisis. Aldi's copycats are priced at a cool £4.99 for 55ml of product - which is 84% less than Glow Recipe. The skincare dupes will be launching in stores on June 5. 'The serums tap into the latest skincare trend: butter skin,' Aldi bosses said. 'Blending the glow of K-beauty with barrier-boosting hydration, butter skin is all about a plump, smooth finish that catches the light – without the shine. 'Aldi's Watermelon Serums are formulated to deliver just that. 'Shoppers can choose from 'brightening' for a dewy, radiant finish or 'bronzing' for a subtle sun-kissed glow.' Both serums are infused with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, like the original Glow Recipe formulas, to hydrate, brighten and smooth. Aldi bosses assured that the latest addition to its beauty line will leave 'skin glowing and nourished – without the luxury price tag'. Also landing on shelves this summer is the BHA Clearing Cleanser, which costs £1.99. This is a gentle, blemish-targeting cleanser designed to remove excess oil and impurities, while refreshing and calming the skin. That's not all. Making a comeback after hitting the headlines last year is the Lacura 2% BHA Toner, which is a Paula's Choice dupe and costs £4.49. The toner will exfoliate skin for a smooth and luminous complexion, while its BHA ingredient offers anti-inflammatory properties to help reduce the appearance of breakouts and blackheads. What exactly IS K-beauty? K-Beauty describes skincare products created with a Korean beauty philosophy in mind, according to Healthline. A standard Korean skincare routine focuses on prevention and protection to keep the natural complexion thriving. The number of steps in daily beauty routines can vary but 10 is the most common. From cleansers, toners, and serums, to moisturizers, K-beauty avoids the use of harsh ingredients that can damage the skin. Glass skin is commonly used in Korean beauty to describe an appearance that's "smooth, clear, and intensely hydrated."

Aldi launch new watermelon serums 84% cheaper than viral Korean beauty favourite
The Aldi buy that comes in at less than £5 is 84 per cent less expensive than viral K-beauty favourite. Korean skincare has become all the rage, surging in popularity thanks to social media and influencers who have raved about benefits, and how they are meant to be the best dermatological products on the market. However, ordering K-beauty favourites from the other side of the world, or indeed being able to afford some of them in the first place, can put many British beauty enthusiasts off getting in on the trend. Skincare enthusiasts might be happy to know, then, that new serums have hit the shelves in Aldi that are 84 per cent cheaper than Glow Recipe, the Korean brand that has been one of the most talked about in the past year. Promising to soften, smooth and nourish skin, the Brightening Watermelon Serum and Bronzing Watermelon Serum have been released just in time for shoppers to achieve the butter skin trend that is taking TikTok by storm. Formulated with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid, these new beauty buys are sure to become get-ready essentials no matter the season. Blending the glow of K-beauty with barrier-boosting hydration, butter skin is all about a plump, smooth finish that catches the light – without the shine. And Aldi's Watermelon Serums are formulated to deliver just that. Lacura Watermelon Serums, coming in at just £4.99 for 55ml, will land in stores on Thursday, June 5. Shoppers can choose from brightening – for a dewy, radiant finish - or bronzing – for a subtle sun-kissed glow. Both versions are infused with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate, brighten and smooth, leaving skin glowing and nourished – without the luxury price tag. Also landing on shelves this summer is the BHA Clearing Cleanser (£2.99, 150ml) – a gentle, blemish-targeting cleanser designed to remove excess oil and impurities, while refreshing and calming the skin. And that's not all. Making a comeback after hitting the headlines last year is the Lacura 2% BHA Toner (£4.49, 100ml). The toner "will exfoliate skin for a smooth and luminous complexion, while its BHA ingredient offers anti-inflammatory properties to help reduce the appearance of breakouts and blackheads." Lacura's returning shopper favourites are available in stores now. Aldi is set to celebrate a significant landmark in 2025 - its 35th anniversary since launching its first UK store.

How Aldi shoppers can get new beauty products for free before they hit stores
The supermarket's cult beauty Club is officially back for its third year, with applications now open until May 20. Aldi has become famed for many things over the years. Lower prices and its much-loved middle aisle are just two things that come to mind when you think of the budget German store. However, the supermarket chain has also become a popular go-to for beauty fans thanks to its in-house Lacura brand that often sells out every time a new line drops in the coveted Specialbuys section. Not only does the beloved beauty line offer high quality products at low prices, but some of them have been rumoured to take on luxury brands from the likes of Dyson, Weleda, Elemis and much more. Fortunately, devoted fans are able to get their hands on some products early with the Aldi Beauty Club that allows them to preview new products before they officially land in stores. In even better news, the cult community is officially back for its third year and, if you want to be in with the chance of being on this year's panel, then we have all the information you need to apply.

Members of the exclusive beauty club will receive an assortment of cosmetics, skincare and haircare products in return for their feedback that will help the supermarket's beauty brand decisions in the future. Those who become part of the panel will be able to use their beauty expertise to review each product they receive and help to identify emerging trends within the industry. Fans who are eager to become part of the Aldi beauty Club are being asked to simply send an email to beautyclub@ with a 150-word explanation on why they would be suitable for the role, alongside what their favourite product from the brand. To give aspiring fans an insight on what being a judge entails, 34 year-old Vicki Hunt from Aldridge, West Midlands shared her experience of being on the panel in 2024. Vicki said: "Being part of the Aldi Beauty Club was an exciting experience – I got to try new products early and share exclusive reviews with my followers. It wasn't just fun; it helped me grow my platform and connect with a community that loves affordable beauty as much as I do.
