OK folks. Shine up your shopping trolley tokens, get your ALDI bags ready because the best Special Buys sale of the year is coming.
On October 25 ALDI will launch their Summer Loving Special Buys, which includes Lacura creams, body washes, haircare and best of all, the cult Summer Touch Booty Balm for the low, low price of $9.99.
Popular in its own right for its claim to smooth cellulite, the Booty Balm is also a $10 dupe for cult Mecca product, Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, a potion that will set you back $72.
Like the Mecca version, Lacura’s Booty Balm promises to tighten and smooth skin and lessen the appearance of cellulite using ingredients like guarana extract and coconut oil.
Failing that, by all accounts it has a really lovely tropical scent.
