As seen in a video shared on Primark’s TikTok, there’s lots of options for anyone looking to build a pamper-themed gift. Other items featured in the clip included brown slippers, similar to the brand’s £9 Faux Fur Lined Mule Slipper and fluffy socks. The hamper-maker also opted to add underwear, a candle and fake flowers. Alternatively, you could fill yours with clothing, homeware or accessories.
