During the Winter, No matter what I do my Skin tends to get incredibly dry, rough and dull, which means that i’m always on the lookout for anything that will return it to it’s silky soft, smooth and glowing looking former self. That’s why when I saw that Aldi had released a Lacura Glycolic Serum and a Lacura Vitamin C Serum that claims to leave you with silky soft, smooth and glowing looking Skin whilst I was doing my weekly Food Shop a couple of weeks ago, I obviously had to pick them both up. Well i’ve been using them for a little while now, and I thought that I would tell you what I thought of them.

It’s scent.
I wasn’t really a massive fan of it’s scent, as even though it contained Water, Glycerin, Glycolic Acid, Isopropyl Palmitate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Polysorbate 20, Propamediol, Dimethicone, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Lactate, Glyceryl Stearate Citrate, Glyceryl Stearate, Isohexadecane, Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, PEG-100 Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Prickly Pear Seed Oil, Fragrance, Ethylhexylglycerin, Xanthan Gum, Petrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Polysorbate 80, Dmethiconol, Sorbitan Oleate, Propylene Glycol, East Indian Lemongrass Oil Extract, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, and Citral, I thought that it had a very strange deep and musky yet ever so slightly watery Glycolic Acid scent to it that kind of reminded me of the scent you smell whenever you open a massive Bottle of Glycolic Acid Toner.
It’s consistency.
I really liked it’s consistency, as even though it was called a Facial Serum, I thought that it felt incredibly thin and watery yet ever so slightly gelatinous, and was more like an incredibly thin and watery yet ever so slightly gelatinous Facial Gel rather than a thin and watery yet ever so slightly balmy Facial Serum.
What it did when I used it.
I really liked what this did when I used it, as once I had started to massage a little bit of it into my Skin, it turned from an incredibly thin and watery yet ever so slightly gelatinous Facial Gel into a thin and gelatinous yet ever so slightly watery Hyaluronic Acid Serum that sank into my Skin within a matter of seconds.
It’s results.
I absolutely loved it’s results, as not only did this leave my Skin feeling incredibly silky smooth, soft, plump, bouncy and intensely hydrated, but it also left it looking extremely glowing, radiant, clear and much healthier for at least 24 hours after I had used it.
It’s packaging.
I really liked it’s packaging, as this came in a short cylindrical Glass Bottle with a metallic Pump Lid that looked beautiful sat on my Beauty Shelves.

It’s scent.
I wasn’t really a massive fan of it’s scent, as even though it contained Water, Glycerin, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Pumpkin Fruit Ferment Extract, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/ VP Copolymer, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Ferulic Acid, Indian Gooseberry Extract, 1-Methylhydantoin-2-Imide, Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Sodium Citrate, Citric Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA, Tocopheryl Acetate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Grape Seed Extract, Glutamylamidoethyl Imidazole, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Pentylene Glycol, Sorbic Acid, CI 19140, and CI 16035, I thought that it had a very strange deep and meaty yet ever so slightly musky Pepperoni scent to it that kind of reminded me of the scent you smell whenever you open a massive Packet of Sliced Pepperoni.
It’s consistency.
I really liked it’s consistency, as even though it was called a Facial Serum, I thought that it felt incredibly thin and oily yet ever so slightly balmy, and was more like an incredibly thin and oily yet ever so slightly balmy Facial Oil rather than a thin and watery yet ever so slightly oily Vitamin C Serum.

It’s results.
I absolutely loved it’s results, as not only did this leave my Skin feeling incredibly silky soft, smooth, plump, bouncy, hydrated and intensely moisturised, but it also left it looking extremely glowing, radiant, brighter and much healthier for hours after I had used it.
It’s packaging.
I really liked it’s packaging, as this came in a tall rectangular Plastic Bottle with a twist up Pump Lid that looked beautiful sat on my Beauty Shelves.
My overall thoughts.
Overall I would have to rate the Aldi Lacura Glycolic Serum a nine out of ten, and the Aldi Lacura Vitamin C Serum a nine out of ten. I really liked the Aldi Lacura Glycolic Serum, as I absolutely loved it’s incredibly thin and watery yet ever so slightly gelatinous consistency, what it did when I used it, it’s results, and it’s packaging, but I just wasn’t a massive fan of it’s very strange deep and musky yet ever so slightly watery Glycolic Acid Scent. I also thought that it would have been nice if they had told you exactly how much Glycolic Acid it actually contained. I really liked the Aldi Vitamin C Serum, as I absolutely loved it’s incredibly thin and oily yet ever so slightly balmy consistency, what it did when I used it, it’s results, and it’s packaging, but I just wasn’t a massive fan of it’s very strange deep and meaty yet ever so slightly musky Pepperoni scent. I also thought that it would have been nice if they had told you exactly how much Vitamin C it actually contained.
