SHE wanted cute, dainty earrings – but instead, was left with huge holes in her ears.
With their affordable make-up and skincare dupes, Primark has become the go-to for most fashion and beauty fans.
However, for one shopper, Kelsie, from the UK, the experience wasn't so pleasant, as she took to TikTok to share the mortifying story.
In the now-viral video, which has been viewed more than 30,000 times, the beauty fan shared snaps of what her ears looked like after allegedly rocking studs purchased from Primark.
Kelsie claimed that she had bought a pack of 12 different pairs of earrings after hearing positive reviews from her mates.
The bargain deal, which retails for £2, came with a variety of accessories – there were mini flower earrings, dainty butterflies and heart-shaped studs just to name a few.

But upon trying these on and leaving them in for a while, things took a sharp turn and the Primark lover was left with massive holes in her ears where the studs had been.
''It’s horrible there’s massive holes , feels and looks gross,'' she said whilst showing close-ups of the horrific aftermath.
To make matters worse, Kelsie added she's scared to touch any ear jewellery now.
''I don’t think I’ll be able to wear earrings again.''
