A BEAUTY fan has unveiled the £7.60 moisturiser from Boots that’s an amazing dupe for a luxury best-seller.
The TikTok user revealed in a video the much more affordable alternative to buying a pot of La Mer for £155.
In a post, the woman said: “Am I hallucinating or does Boots genuinely have the perfect dupe for this world-famous moisturiser?”
The beauty whizz continued: “Dermatologists prescribe this Avène cream constantly because of its post-biotic ingredients.
“[It] rivals the algae extract ingredient found in La Mer.”
She said that after “weeks” of testing both, they provided “insanely” similar results.
