The Lacura Rose Cleansing Balm is £42 cheaper than the iconic Elemis Rose Cleansing Balm[/caption]

Last year, bargain hunters scrambled to get their hands on the middle aisle beauty dupe, which appeared almost identical to a posh buy from Elemis.

And now, luckily for you, the fan favourite product is returning to shelves in just days time.

The much-loved retailer took to social media to share the exciting news, leaving many open-mouthed.

Posting on Instagram, Aldi gave shoppers a close-up look at the dupe find and wrote: Our Lacura Cleansing Balm is back by popular demand."

The Lacura Cleansing Balm, which is available in a rose and original scent, will hit stores on 21st November.

Priced at just £6.99, we think it's a real steal compared to the £49 Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm from Elemis.

So if you fancy saving yourself some cash, you'll need to set your alarm and head down to your local store fast on Thursday.

Not only will you pocket £42 thanks to this affordable find, but your skin will enjoy some seasonal rejuvenation too.

This soothing and scented product is a lightweight make-up remover that helps skin feel balanced, refreshed and hydrated.

The non-drying formula of the Rose Cleansing Balm is enriched with Rosehip Oil, Sweet Almond Oil and Rose Flower Oil, and is one you won't want to miss.

It’s suitable for all skin types – whether you have dry, oily or combination skin.

But like all Specialbuys, once they're gone, they're gone.
