An 11-year-old girl was left with horrific injuries after false nail glue reportedly melted through her leggings and burnt her leg.
Tasha Woolley, from Aldershot, in Hampshire, claims her daughter accidentally dripped the Primark glue on her leg while trying to apply it to her nails.
The mum uploaded pictures to Facebook showing the burn on her girl's leg, adding that she had to be taken to hospital for treatment.
The youngster will require surgery or a skin graft as a result of the damage allegedly caused by the £1.50 product.
Ms Woolley wrote on Facebook: "Warning. Primark glue.
“So as many of you know [my daughter] had a chemical burn to the leg on Wednesday evening. She was trying to put on false nails from Primark.
“She was told to wait till I helped her it but as she knows best like any 11-year-old, she decided to do it herself without us knowing. She managed to get it on her leg. She was wearing leggings.
"The glue melted the leggings to her leg and burnt all underneath. Causing a very deep burn.
“Charlie put her under a cold shower and then we rushed her to A and E where she was seen straight away and put into a shower there."
She added that her girl is currently being held at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital burns unit.
The mother urged other parents to make sure their children do not use the glue on their own.
Her daughter is the third person that has allegedly suffered burns from the Primark false nail glue in the last four months, according to The Sun .
Some Facebook users reacted in shock to Ms Woolley's post, describing the burn as 'horrendous', however others defended Primark.
Laura Barkle wrote: “Nail glue is like superglue. It reacts with a lot of fabrics, causing heat to be produced.
"You can’t blame Primark, they use the exact same stuff every other company and salon use."
A Primark spokesman said the company took the safety of its customers seriously and that the nail glue complied with EU rules.
They added that the product contains ingredients used in other products on the high street and the packaging features a skin contact and child suitability warning.
The retailer said it was sorry to hear about Ms Woolley's experience and was investigating the complaint.
