Beauty buffs are praising Primark for its £3.50 dupe of a cult mascara - which has thousands of five-star reviews online. Primark has launched its own £3.50 version of Maybelline's Sky High mascara, which has soared in popularity since it was first released, and is a staple in millions of people's make-up bags.
In my experience of using Maybelline's Sky High Mascara, which is £11.99 on the Boots website, it's excellent. I found it lengthened my lashes in one coat when I tried it, and gave them a lovely black coating - not like the sub-par smudgy black you often find with budget mascaras.
On the Boots website, Maybelline's Sky High mascara has 1,500 five-star reviews. One Boots reviewer said after trying the £11.99 Maybelline mascara: "I bought this yesterday after reading the reviews and found it amazing! Easy to apply ( some people thought the wand too flimsy I didn’t) As another mentioned If you build it up your lashes really are sky high It doesn’t flake or smudge A great find Thanks Maybelline."
A second said: My new favourite. Does need a back and forth movement (left and right above the eye) to properly separate and cover the lashes, but it does it exquisitely when you do so! I never do double layers, but with this one I go straight back for a second layer after my first ones and that gives more fullness and length. Very light to wear - love it!"
So to find a £3.50 dupe of Maybelline's Sky High mascara at Primark, which beauty fans are saying is 'the same', I was over the moon. It's not surprising to see others are either.
Primark's £3.50 mascara has been branded as 'great' by fans as they uploaded videos of themselves testing out the ''Double Act Volumising Mascara', alongside Maybelline's 'Sky High Mascara.' One TikTok user also spotted Urban Decay dupes including its 'All Nighter Setting Spray' and 'Eyeshadow Primer Position.' However, what appears to be most popular amongst the Primark shoppers is the mascara, as many shared their own verdicts on social media.
TikTok user @unpakked captioned the video: 'Ahh some more exciting dupes just landed! Tag someone who needs to go.' She said: "So here's the beauty products that landed in Primark this week. So it started off high with the Sky High mascara from Maybelline." She added: "This is actually my favourite mascara and they came out with a dupe for £3.50.
"Next we have got this 'Up All Night' setting spray which is similar of the 'All Nighter' from Urban Decay. And lastly the Urban Decay dupe for the 'Prime and Position', I'm so excited to try this one."
One viewer commented that the mascara dupe was 'great.' They said: 'I HAVE THE MASCARA ITS GREAT.' Another person said: 'looks like another trip to primark.' Someone else penned: 'I got the first one is actually so good.'
'They literally have the best dupes' added another Primark fan. Trying out the mascara, @unpakked said the product was 'pretty good if you ask me!'
Another TikTok user told people to 'run not walk' to Primark for its latest eye-makeup product. Other Primark shoppers raved over the makeup 'dupes' on TikTok, sharing their own videos and giving their results. Comparing the mascara, @beautyforeverbody shared her verdict on TikTok and said: 'They are the same thing.'
