The pretty masks are available in Chamomile or Jasmine

Add some much-need tranquility and calmness to your wellness routine and at a minimal cost with Aldi's first ever self-heating eye masks.

Launching as part of the retailer's award-winning beauty brand Lacura, the pretty eye masks feature astrological prints and come in two different fragrances, Chamomile or Jasmine. Adorned with stretchy ear loops, the masks are an easy fit to suit all face shapes and come in in packs of five. Each pack is priced at £4.99.

Each mask is lined with a soft non-woven layer that will add comfort and tranquillity to skincare routines. Aldi encourages you to slip the masks over your ears and eyes, sit back, relax and enjoy the uplifting warmth. Sounds heavenly!

The masks are available to pre-order now and in stores from 20th March, while stocks last.

Lacura continues to expand its beauty products, and last year it launched its first ever beauty advent calendar and curated beauty box, haircare products and its sell-out £6.99 cleansing balm.

The premium Skincare range promises beauty lovers high quality ingredients without the hefty price tag. The range also includes a Jelly Cleanser, Microdermabrasion Scrub, Vitamin C Serum, Glycolic Exfoliating Treatment, Intensive Eye Cream and Glycolic Exfoliating Treatment and promises to take your skincare routines to the next level.

The entire collection, which is available to buy online and in stores, has been created at the most affordable price point possible, with products starting from £3.99 and only increasing to £6.99.

Fans are advised to get buying quickly as Lacura's products are known to sell out very fast.

An excellent day cream option, Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream is lightweight yet super hydrating and absorbs quickly. It's suitable for all skin types but particularly good for those with sensitive skin as it's fragrance-free and gentle. 

This cream has a legendary reputation as being a little pot of magic so we were intrigued to put it to the test. 

We can confirm it lives up to the hype. 

Containing vitamin C, ocean mineral complex, KB5 complex and reishi mushroom, it both hydrates and brightens the skin and we noticed results after just one week.  

Hydrogel Cream is one of the best-selling products from Jessica Alba's top-rated skincare collection. It has a very lightweight, silky formula that feels refreshing on the skin and is an excellent everyday cream to put on after you've cleansed in the morning.  

Containing shea butter and anti-oxidant as well as SPF, this day cream from Nivea works well at keeping the skin protected and hydrated throughout the day - even with makeup on. It is suitable for sensitive and dry skin but if you have really sensitive skin, it's best to patch test it first as it is fragranced. 

Containing peptides, which promote collagen production as well as hyaluronic acid and antioxidants, this quick-absorbing formula from Decree is super nourishing. It's certainly more on the expensive side but it is both a day and night cream so you can think of it as 2-for-1. 

Murad’s Intense Recovery Cream might be powerful stuff but it’s not heavy nor does it leave any residue on the skin. Containing a cocktail of powerful ingredients including shea butter and macadamia oil, it both hydrates and de-stresses the skin.

For those with dry skin, it can be a concern that products containing retinol may make it worse. Not with StriVectin. 

This Advanced Retinol Intensive Night Moisturiser provides the benefits of retinol - reducing dark spots, brightening the skin and reducing oil production to name just a few - as well as deep hydration. It's one of the best hydrating creams we've tried.  

This moisturiser from Bliss is a triple threat. Not only does it contain hydrating hero ingredients like shea butter, but it also has Vitamin C for brightening and micro-algae to promote cell regeneration. 

The Resist Anti-Aging Intensive Repair Cream from one of our favourite skincare brands, Paula's Choice, is another excellent option if you're looking for a cream that contains retinol but is super hydrating. Ultra-rich, it feels luxurious to apply and doesn't leave even a hint of residue. 

This anti-ageing day cream from Eucerin has both SPF and hyaluronic acid in it which makes it both protective and plumping. Rich but not greasy or sticky, it feels soothing to apply and works well under makeup. 

Dermatology M’s skincare is underpinned by the practices of Chinese Herbal Medicine meaning all of the products are 95% natural and free of any nasties. The brand’s Rose Otto Rejuvenating Cream, made from rose oil from over 1200 rose petals, not only smells heavenly but genuinely leaves the skin soft throughout the day.

Kate Somerville is one of Hollywood's most in-demand facialists, so it's little wonder her products really work. This legendary peptide-rich cream is no different. It soothes, hydrates and plumps flawlessly. Plus, it noticeably reduced the appearance of fine lines.
