I tested Primark’s teeth whitening strips – they cost just £4 so I wasn’t expecting much but I was stunned
A SKINCARE expert has taken to TikTok to share her first impressions of Primark’s new bargain teeth whitening strips – and was thrilled with the results.
Amy, known online as @skin_vestment, regularly shares skincare tips and reviews with her 51,200 followers.
In a new video, she tests out the discount store’s Dissolving Teeth Whitening Strips, costing just £4 for a pack of 14.
She claims they’re a dupe for the Crest 3D Professional Effects Whitestrips, which will set shoppers back £23.99 for 14.
She said: “Let’s see how well the Primark teeth whitening stripes work.
“So I’m an avid coffee drinker, I drink upwards of six cups of coffee a day. Basically, I need these white strips.
“They’re not very sticky. If you’ve ever used the Crest White strips, they’re not sticky like those are at all, and they dissolve and get really gungy.
“But the results are insane. This was after one use.
“Ah, so good!”
Fans loved Amy’s honesty, with the video gaining more than 6,700 likes and 101,000 views.
In the comments, fans shared their reactions, with one writing: “Wowwww those worked so so well omg!”
Another said: “Off I go to Primark again.”
A third added: “Yay!! Exactly what I was waiting for! The results are amazing too.”
Someone else asked whether the strips made Amy’s teeth any more sensitive after using them.
Amy replied: “Mine were fine after.”
She’s not the only one putting viral beauty products to the test – Olivia took to TikTok to share her thoughts on the Maybelline 4-in-1 perfector but was left disappointed.
The £12.99 perfector, hailed as a Charlotte Tilbury dupe, claims to work as a primer, concealer, highlighter, and BB cream – but the TikTokker suggests it only does one of the four.
She said: “I had to double-check that this was actually the lightest shade because it’s quite orange.
“This is described as a primer, concealer, highlighter, and BB cream.
“The finish is beautiful, very glowy, but because of the poor shade match, I had to blend it out so much there was no coverage.
“Testing out the concealer claim…there’s just no coverage at all.”
