Urban Decay dupes from Aldi (UK)!

Get The Gloss is a women’s lifestyle website from the UK. It recently published an article about dupes of Urban Decay eyeshadow palettes from Lacura, Aldi’s skin care and cosmetics line (yes, Aldi).

Here’s Aldi’s dupe of the Urban Decay Naked Heat eyeshadow palette:

The Lacura eyeshadow palettes don’t compare to Urban Decay’s palettes in quality. Each Lacura eyeshadow palette costs £5.99 or US $7.63, while Urban Decay’s palettes costs £39.50 or US $50.00.

I searched Aldi’s U.S. site, but I couldn’t find Lacura makeup there.
