I have used Aldis cream for ages but i must admit that i think Lidls Anti Wrinkle day cream is even better.

Interesting to hear about the Aldi and Lidl creams, I might have a look and try them :)

Oh I might try the Lidl day cream. Di, you were saying that Simple isn't rich for me - oddly enough my skin does not feel at all taut or tight in the morning after using the Simple night cream, so I am still very happy with it.

If the Lidl creams are like Aldi, you might find that they're a bit too perfumed if you have sensitive skin. I'm not sure if they do an unperfumed range.

I love smells - nice ones anyway :D
So whilst on occasions it's sensible to use unperfumed, I can never wait to get back to my lovely Neal's Yard frankincense :)
I feel the same about cleanser , shower stuff, body lotion, hand cream...but that's partly why I don't mind spending a bit, you don't want cheap smells do you?
Along with spotting freebie bargains of course ;) :D
Actually, I think it helps, I'd notice immediately if anything smelt different - like the cuticle cream I threw away last week ;)

Those freebies are how I found the lovely Balance Me cleanser, and thanks to stocking up on £2 a go with Glamour, I have two spare tubes. They last months, as you only need a petit-pois sized amount each time, and I only use it in the mornings :)
I also have an unopened shower wash thanks again to a mag, to take on our holibobs :D
Sorry, off-topic :D
