The two piercing products were found to contain higher than permitted levels of nickel, which can lead to allergic skin reactions.

In a statement on its website, Primark said: “It has come to our attention that the products ‘Body Bar (white)’ and ‘Nose Piercing 5 pk (yellow)’ do not meet the Primark usual high standards for safety.

“With the safety of our customers at the forefront of our minds we are inviting you to return these products for a full refund.”
